Kimberly Gider Salon & Spa

I love Kimberly, I came for waxing and a spray tan. I looked great! Did not turn into a umpa lumpa (no orange)! Thank God! When I was there Kimberly introduced me to one of her stylist Nina. I went back in and Nina did highlights, haircut and blow dry. My hair had been damaged by color while at another salon and all I can say is THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I felt so relaxed after my hair was washed, talk about a awesome head massage! I decided to have my make up done after my color and cut because Im in a wedding in few weeks. I instantly felt very comfortable with Katie, I am very picky with my hair and even more with my make up. Katie did such a great job. I have never really had my make up done and been happy with the results. Well now I know where to go to have make up. My eye lashes look beautiful. I feel so pretty AMAZING! So I’m so excited I have a new Salon and Spa to go to. I definitely recommend this salon, it’s very professional, but still young and fun! Colleen Maguire

I’ve been visiting and been a customer with Kim and her team for a few months, I stopped going at one point. Mostly because of my busy schedule but would recommend this spa to anyone else. I haven’t used the nail or any of the spa services they have to off yet, but might do so in the near future.
Thank you for the great service !

I’ve had a couple of massages at Kimberly Gider Salon and they were outstanding. Very relaxing atmoshere and the staff are friendly and professional. I’ll definitely be going back.

Big shout out to Nina who recommended their Wella hair care line for my coarse/​thick hair. It’s reasonably priced and is the best shampoo/​conditioner I’ve ever used :)
All of the girls are great. Busy, fun atmosphere. I always leave so happy with my hair. Great brow waxes too!

used to get my Brazilian’s done by Kim when she was at Better Health & Tanning Spa. I stopped going to her for a while and found her again at this salon. Long story short? She burned my vag twice with wax that was too hot, and the second time couldn’t be bothered to answer the phone despite multiple attempts to contact her.
DO NOT GO TO HER FOR YOUR BRAZILIAN. YOU WILL FEEL LIKE YOU HAD INTERCOURSE WITH A CACTUS IF YOU DO.

Worst airbrush tanning I’ve ever had. They take you down into a basement that’s pretty much wide open and spray you, it takes forever. then they put you in the «corner» to dry. the entire time you’re down there employees are coming and going, uhm hello i’m naked here. can I get some privacy? The next morning I awoke hoping my tan would look fabulous. It was not! it was Streak city!!! So streaky and discolored. it also costs an arm and a leg, do not go for tans!

Stay away from this place!!! They are incredibly arrogant and unprofessional. I hope this place goes out of business.

Never again. A few years ago I had my very first microdermabrasion session with Kimberly. She was rough with the diamond tip to the point the session was painful. But she kept saying it’s normal, so I believe her beings it was my first time. For the next week or so I had so many bruises on my face I looked like I had been punched several times.
I’ve been to many other sessions elsewhere and they have all been very pleasant, which leads me to believe Kimberly just didn’t know how to use the machine properly. Awful experience.

Great brow waxing services.

I literally just got my hair done here and had to leave a review! I have been really self conscious about my hair after losing some due to health issues and I was hesitant to go anywhere but this salon is close to me and looked cute & is reasonably priced so I thought I’d give it a shot. I was able to book my appointment online which was convenient. I had zero wait when I arrived and the head massage during my wash was so nice! I wish you could pay for it to be longer haha.
I had a haircut with Val and she made me feel super comfortable and I’m so excited with the results! My hair looks amazing! She made me feel like a new lady :) she gave an excellent blow dry and she used quality products. I’m so glad I took a chance because I’ve definitely found my new salon! I would love to try out some other services as well!

I am always scared when I have to find a new salon/​stylist because of the military lifestyle; I have had my fair share of bad cuts, but I am so glad I found Carly Rost. I had my hair glazed, cut, and styled, and I couldn’t be happier. She did an amazing job. They got rid of my unwanted highlights and the horrendous stacked layers that a previous stylist at another salon gave me, and were able to keep most of my length, which was important to me. I also got my nails done by Susan, and they’ve held up all week, no chips or breaks (I have natural nails). I would highly recommend this beautiful salon and spa to anyone.

I don’t know what I would have done without this salon! In preparing for my October wedding, I used Salon & Spa by Kim G for hair color & cut, makeup, updo, waxing & spray tan. My wedding party
& I came here for our hair/​makeup. I was absolutely thrilled with all of these services!
The salon itself is amazing. It’s clean, fresh, trendy & comfortable. The staff was WONDERFUL & friendly. They’re all talented, listen to concerns/​requests & are eager to help in any way. Val is amazing & I can’t thank her enough for my color & bridal hair!
As far as my wedding day experience at the salon – it seriously could not have been better. Kim and I were in contact constantly before the big day-​she wanted to make sure everything went smoothly & perfectly. (It definitely did!) My bridesmaids couldn’t stop taking about how great the salon was & everyone looked absolutely gorgeous, thanks to the awesome staff. Kim has a passion for the bridal industry & it definitely showed. I was so impressed with everything & would 100% recommended any brides to go here for their bridal services ! THANK YOU!

Kim and her staff are the highest level of professionals AND kind and gracious beyond belief! Kim provides PERFECT waxes — fast and great.

I was in PA for a wedding yesterday and wanted to get my eyebrows waxed and hair blown out (as well as extensions put in). I found this salon when I did a google search for salons around the hotel where we were staying at.
My first opinion of the salon was that it was gorgeous. Very friendly front counter girls, beautiful décor and seemed like a full service salon. Kimberly herself did my eyebrows and they came out nice. I found her to be a little bit rough and standoffish though. As a new customer, i really need her to say to me «I’m about to fire my entire staff!» when she was upset about something. Kind of unprofessional.
My hair was done by a woman named Jess. She was AMAZING!!! Super super friendly, professional, hard working and very sweet!!! She did an awesome job on my hair! If I lived in the area, I would definitely have Jess as my hairstylist. :)

I will start by saying the two times I’ve had my hair cut & colored here (2 different girls) have been wonderful. I would definitely go back for my hair again.
The waxing, however, is a nightmare. The first time I went, I schedule a bikini wax and leg. I was left in the room to wait for Kim. When she came in, in about 2 seconds, before I could even stop it (the first strip of hair removal is the biggest and crosses the point of no return between a bikini wax and a Brazilian), I was well on my way to a Brazilian wax, which I didn’t want. I was so ticked off that when she finished that part up and bolted out of the room for her next appt, I didn’t stop her to tell her she was supposed to do my legs. Apparently, she doesn’t check to see what the client actually scheduled before she waxes them. When I went to pay, I asked the girls why she did that and they said «she’s just used to doing Brazilians all day long.» They said they would get her back to do my legs. That was it! No apology. That’s not even an excuse. Sorry I’m the only one who wanted something different today and wanted to deviate from the norm. I actually expected to get a call from Kim later on apologizing and offering some sort of free service to make up for it. Nope.
The only reason I went back was because I had a hair appointment and was in desperate need of an eyebrow/​lip wax combo and didn’t have time to schedule it somewhere else. What could go wrong right? Well, Kim does the eyebrows (I don’t even want to get into how horrible they look now) and quickly moves me on my way to work on her next client when I stop her and tell her I scheduled the eyebrow/​lip combo. Again she had no idea what I actually scheduled! And to think this is the OWNER doing this.

I started frequenting Kim’s salon about 6 – 8 months ago and have received multiple services. Each & every time has been like a day out with girlfriends. Walking in immediately makes a mama feel like she is in heaven. The ambiance is stellar, its beautiful and the smell alone puts you at ease. The entite staff is so professional & friendly. I look forward to each trip I make there!
My hair genius Jess is a freaking goddess at her craft! I trust her with my life! She is so amazing with skill and also anticipation if what your needs are. Such a sweetheart, Check her out ;)
Kelsey has done my makeup on 3 different occasions. She is fantastic. She has a talent of making you into whatever you need to be! She is so fun & and really talented! Ive literally never had and eyelash fall off or makeup fade. She can deck you out or do a «no make-​up» look! She does facials as well!
Ashley is such a cutie. She is very friendly but once she starts your nails she means business. So gentle yet thorough, perfect combo!
Susan has also done my nails & toes. Such a pro :) she is so easy to talk too!
Valerie is another hair goddess, always good to chat with and her regulars seem to live her. If I didn’t have Jess Id go right to Val!
Morgan & Marisa the receptionists are always so welcoming and sweet. Dressed to the 9’s and ready to help with anything a stylist needs!
Kim has waxed & spray tanned me. She is definitely a firecracker and leader. She is involved with her whole staff an clientele always. I enjoy her big smile and open arms when I come in. Feels like home.
You can tell this staff is a close knit family and its nice to see a small business receive accolades and thrive in this community!
I seriously adore this spa & salon. My hubby knows each holiday to get me a gift certificate here and I don’t mind treating myself either!
Do yourself a favor, come in & try it and make your own decision!

I have enjoyed working with Kim and her staff for over a year and am thrilled with the new full service spa.
The appointment option and cleanliness are very appreciated– however the consistent excellent service for waxing, nails, and blowouts has made this my go to spa!
I have had tons of compliments on my brows and nails. Highly recommended!

I recently moved to Conshohocken and was in desperate search of a quality salon that did great eyebrow waxing. I heard many recommendations about going to Kim and decided to try her out yesterday. I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK.
1. Never introduced herself, she came up to me in the chair real close to my face and asked, «what are we having done today?»
Maybe if you checked your books you’d know that at 1pm you have a waxing appointment.
2. She went RIGHT for the hot wax, never consulted me, never asked my name, never asked me ONCE what I want to do with my eyebrows… I had to stop her before and tell her I don’t want too much taken off.
3. She asked me who did my eyebrows before I came to her. Once I told her she said «well you can tell her that she sucks»…really? Extremely unprofessional.
4. SHE SNEEZED INTO HER HAND AND DIDN’T WASH THEM!!!
5. Yelled obnoxiously over my head at another girl who was in the breakroom watching trash tv and stuffing her face with a bag of chips.
Never going back, never recommending this place to anyone. If you want a professional staff, don’t go there.

I have given this salon multiple chances and every time I leave disappointed. Eyebrow wax is never what I ask for, she thins them out when I ask to let them grow in. The lip wax left me with giant scab under my nose right before a vacation. They do not wash their hands before waxing your face (SUPER GROSS)! Because this place is so close to my house I have tried and tried again, but I will not be going back anymore and suggest you think twice before you go in for waxing.
Also, the salon claims to be Best of Philly but they make the clients vote for the salon before service! Of course I am not going to say no before you put hot wax on my face…

Brazilian wax review. My regular go to place had my lady out so I had to seek another place. I saw Kim was rated number 1 waxer or something, so I figured wow – thats great! So, I went in and walked out after 20 minutes.
–It was quick. Too quick. Brazilians generally take 40 minutes, she finished in 20.
–It hurt… unusually a lot – although I still held my ground.
–She did not hold my skin taut, which is general waxing knowledge.
–She was not thorough and left patches on the backside.
–BRUISE about an inch long down there, half inch wide, bright red and tender.
–I have some other scabs as well.
I’m so sad to write this review, I really hate writing bad ones. But, I am so shocked by my experience, and wanted to make sure others were aware. It was too rushed, I wish she held my skin taut to prevent my skin from tugging (which she didnt do, even when I asked) and she missed so many patches.
I would seriously not recommend this place. I’ve been to a few places for the same service and have never experienced any bruising and have never had it finished in 20 minutes.
– I recommend my regular, Mrs. Ken in Bryn Mawr ( Unilocal her). Same price. Takes her time. Better wax (hard wax). Student Discounts. The least amount of pain I’ve ever experienced.
