Studio Be Salon

Came here for a blowout last week before I went on my trip and booked with Bre. She was so nice and did an excellent job!!! My blowout even looked good after a couple days, despite the heat and smoke from Las Vegas… ha! For $ 30, it’s so worth it. Thanks Bre!!!

This place is awesome. I don’t really give many f**ks about my hair but even I can tell the difference between an ok cut and a great one. Not to mention, Meredith, my stylist, was so cute I nearly asked her to have my firstborn, and I don’t even really like kids.
It ain’t that pricey and certainly more than worth it. They have this cool room in the back that’s rockin’ a chill speakeasy vibe, and they wash your hair and give you a nice head massage. If you be scurrrred about trying a new hair joint, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed with this place. Oh yeah, you can drink too! I didn’t, because I am excellent at being superbly lame, but you definitely can!

It is usually very hard for me to break away from my beloved go-​to stylists, however I needed an emergency touch up appointment and they were both booked. With much hesitation, the scheduler directed me to someone I had never seen before, Meredith. I am beyond impressed! Meredith such an exemplary job of providing superior customer service not only because she listened to my hair goals and concerns, but because she delivered on creating a premium experience from consultation to final blow dry. As a professional in the customer service field, I tend to set high expectations and Meredith exceeded all! Thank you for another fabulous experience

I moved here 4 years ago and was referred to Studio Be by multiple friends. I’ve been a guest every since. Best salon in town, I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I moved here from another state and was looking for a new hair stylist.
I was looking for a cut and color. My hair was a medium blue to a redish purple ombré which I loved and wanted to get it done again. My hair is naturally very dark and by this time I had a lot of root showing and the rest of my hair had faded a great deal. When I called and told the operator, she wasn’t very professional. She told me what hair products I should tell the stylist to use. She explained the ranking system and the prices. I told her that was fine, and that I wanted to get someone with a higher number because I wanted it done well. So instead she said «so middle of the road?» and booked me with someone that was at a level three. THEN she called me back and said that person was actually leaving and actually said «My bad». She then booked me with a consultation with a level five.
For my consultation I brought in pictures of how my hair when it was first done before and told the stylist that I wanted it done like that if she could do it. I also told her I wanted about four inches cut from my hair. She gave me a price and I told her that was fine if she could get the results that I wanted. She said she could.
At my appointment I wasn’t feeling well, but the whole experience wasn’t a good one. When I first got there it didn’t seem like she was prepared. She didn’t know what the colors were and where they were going. I had to show her pictures again. She talked to me which is normal for a hair stylist, but I didn’t appreciate some of her questions. She asked me if I was going to have any children which I thought was too personal. I didn’t feel like explaining my personal life to her so I just said «I don’t know». She thought that I said «no» and she seemed angry at that answer. She kept talking to me even though I told her I wasn’t feeling well and didn’t feel like talking. I was trying to be nice, but she didn’t stop talking to me about my personal life.
Whenever I talked about how I wanted my hair cut, she kept telling me how great the color would look with my hair longer. I felt like it was a battle to get her to cut my hair. I also wanted it tapered in the front and she didn’t cut it as short as I wanted.
When she dyed my hair I wasn’t next to a mirror and didn’t see what was happening. It wasn’t until she started blow drying my hair she put me in front of a mirror and I saw it wasn’t the colors that I wanted at all. The top part that was supposed to be more of a medium blue was dark and had a purplish tint. The bottom part was a very dark purple and not even close to how it was before. When I told her this she had me go to the lobby and look at it in the light. I told her that the color was different, a lot darker and therefor wasn’t what I was expecting. She told me that it would lighten when it fades. When we walked back to the chair she told me that it was just that I wasn’t used to it. This was not the responses I feel that I should have gotten. She then asked me what colors my last stylist used. I didn’t know the answer. If she needed the colors I could have gotten them, but I showed her pictures before hand and she said that she could do it. She also complained about how long my hair took to blow dry.
I paid (much more than what I was told) left her a tip (which I shouldn’t have done) and I left. I kept hoping that I would some how fall in love with my hair… it wasn’t the color or cut that I wanted, but maybe it would be okay. When I got home and looked at my hair I saw that there were patches on the top of my head that were green. It looked horrible. And when I saw friends and family those green patches were the first thing they noticed and mentioned (without me saying anything).
I waited a while to try to calm down and spoke to my old hair stylists who told me that I should call the studio and let them know how I felt. I called and spoke to a lady telling her everything. She told me that they guaranteed their services and was happy to have another stylist of a higher level fix my hair. She got my information (name, number and schedule) and told me that they would call me up with a free appointment.
I got a message a couple days later where I was given the name of a stylist to go to and how much it would cost. I was told it was going to cost me money.
For a cut and hair color that I hated that wasn’t done well (and a thing of shampoo and conditioner) I spent $ 318.00 (before the tip that I shouldn’t have left). I was there for four hours and live an hour away. I am very unhappy about it all.

Studio B is about the only place I get my hair cut anymore. I’ve been coming here for about 3 years now. Hannah, my stylist does a great job every time I come in and is very personable and fun to talk to. Studio B is a Paul Mitchell salon, and like most places, is somewhere you pay for quality. They rank their stylists into different tiers. The tiers called «levels» are equivalent to experience, client base, training, and also the price of your cut. So if you want a more experienced stylist you have to pay a little bit more.
Studio B does a great job of making you feel welcome right when you walk in. As you check in your offered a drink (included in your cut) or tea, coffee, beer, wine, etc. They usually feature whatever’s in New Belgium’s most recent variety pack. Once you’re up they take you back to the washroom. They have a variety of shampoo choices to choose from, and always offer a steam towel on the neck or face afterwards, which is followed by a quick scalp massage. They’ll do brow waxing and a few other add ons at an additional charge.
Next is the cut, which is fairly self-​explanatory. Hanging out with your stylist, chatting, and them doing a great job.
After the cut they’ll always do a little bit of styling to your hair so that you look nice and fancy for the rest of the day. It’s a nice place to go, all of the staff are friendly and they always do a fantastic job.

I LOVED my very first experience at Studio Be. My appt. was with Shannon and she was awesome. We talked about what I was looking for with my color and she offered suggestions. My hair turned out perfect! It feels amazing now too! Very soft and free from damage. I cannot wait to go back for my next appt! Another plus for this salon is the amazing scalp massage that you get with your wash! OMG amazing!

The entire experience at Studio Be is wonderful, from your arrival where they offer you a complimentary beverage to the final check to see if you are satisfied with your cut.
I booked with Rosie and she is so great! Always so much fun to get my hair cut on a Saturday afternoon in the Front Range shopping plaza with her. If I was still living in Fort Collins, I wouldn’t even think about going anywhere else. Best salon in Fort Collins.
Thanks for all the great haircuts Rosie!

Well I’ve gone back and forth on this review and have decided I’m just going to tell the truth, because I’m sick of not getting what I paid for. I’ve been here 3 times, the first 2 experiences were great, but the last time, my stylist was clearly rushed and my hair suffered the consequences. I ended up with very brassy highlights which have brightened up a bit thanks to the toner I bought, but I also ended up with two stripes running back my head that ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THERE! They run horizontally back my head almost all the way, and it is NOT THE GROWTH LINE. My hair has grown out about ¼ inch, I can see where the new growth is, these two stripes are below that. I understand very well that mistakes happen but when you’re made aware of them, you should take the opportunity to correct the problem. Especially when someone pays $ 140+tip. Unfortunately I had surgery right after my appointment and didn’t call the salon to let them know about the issue until it was apparently too late according to them. Instead of offering to correct the issue they offered to schedule me with a LOWER LEVEL stylist, which I would’ve still had to pay for. Make sense to you? Yeah me either. I guess what it comes down to is, I will NEVER return, I will NEVER recommend Studio Be to ANYONE and I will be sure to tell EVERYONE where I got my STRIPES. Bravo on your customer service skills Studio Be, Bravo. If I could post a picture here for everyone to see, I most certainly would.

I have been going to Bre at the South location for awhile now and she is the best! She is so friendly and so knowledgeable. Hair care doesn’t come cheap and Bre makes the cost worth it. I have gone to salons in the past where I spend a lot of money and the cut/​color been just ok, but Bre is a real artist and makes my hair look great every time! I’ve moved a lot and finding a salon is always difficult, but I’m so happy with Studio B. The salon is chic, trendy, and the staff is always great. The salon has a beauty bar atmosphere and the girls are are always quick to offer coffee or tea. Highly recommend!

Today was my first visit to Studio B, I am new to Fort Collins so I was a little tentative. I have to say all staff were friendly. Amanda was my stylist and she did a great Job. Haylie Waxed my eyebrows and top lip. I am very satisfied with the service. My only complaint is it is a little pricey. I need a color, however, $ 100.00 seems very pricey to me. Hence the 4 stars! Previous comments about nasty staff are unfounded. Everyone was pleasant!

I really enjoyed my experience at Studio B at their South Location on Friday. I Haile did a fantastic job consulting with me about what I wanted to do and since I was going shorter, she was cautious and even let me ask for more length off — even though it meant having to go back and retexurize some areas. I LOVED the area where you get your hair washed and no detail is left out — can we say Hot Towel to the back of my neck! Ahhh so relaxing. I appreciated that their front desk staff made me feel special and important. And they even called me to follow up and find out how things had gone. I will definitely be going back to see Haile and I thought the pricing was fair.

The positive reviews are probably all from current employees. This salon employs the RUDEST stylists in town. If you enjoy supporting an environment that is worse than a bitchy sorority, then this is the place for you! You’ll end up with a horrible GreatClips cut at a high end salon price while listening to the stylists speak crap about the other employees. The owner should be disgusted at the way these girls behave in front of clients!

This is the third time I’ve been to studio be. First time was just a cut and the last two were for color. Let me start by quickly reviewing my first color experience with studio be: I paid close to 150 for a couple highlights which weren’t noticeable unless I parted my hair in a certain way. After awhile they turned an awkward orange-​brown which I could look past because the color change happened within a good year after I got it done. Overall, I mainly felt cheated out of my money but decided to get over it because I ended up liking the highlights a little more than I thought.
I decided to give studio be another chance with giving me the color and look I wanted because maybe my first experience was a simple miscommunication. I have dark brown-​almost black hair and I wanted to change to a light brown. I consulted my stylist and we went through pictures and I pointed to one I specifically liked and with that, we got started. I’d like to point out that I enjoyed myself, and my stylist was super nice and polite which is always a positive thing. I was impressed by her dedication (the appointment took over three hours) and that does make me hesitant in writing this review because I don’t want to point any fingers since I do believe my stylist has talent and is very good at what she does.
However, three and a half hours and over 300 dollars later, I walked out with hair that looked similar to what I started with. It’s maybe a little lighter but nothing like the picture I pointed out and still a dark brown, nonetheless. My stylist reassured me that after a few washes, the color would lift a little but even with a couple shades lighter, it still won’t be like how I explained it or how the picture showed.
I wouldn’t mind going to studio be again because I think their staff is really great and always really nice, I just feel very cheated out of my money a second time. For close to 350 dollars I would expect that my hair would be noticeably lighter but so far, no one has really noticed, or I get the cynical, «you paid THAT much for THAT little of a change?»

Shannon G was awesome and so sweet! I was nervous to cut my hair short, but she made it look better than I could’ve ever imagined! The salon was very nice and professional. Everyone working seemed to really love their job and I felt relaxed throughout my entire appointment. I will definitely be going back!

I had a great first experience at Studio Be! Everyone was very kind and offered to get me drinks, etc. My favorite part of the experience was getting a complimentary hot towel wrapped around my neck while I was getting shampooed. The only thing I wish I had known was that partial highlights there means you literally only get 10 foils! So I guess just make sure you know what you are getting before booking an appointment so that they have time to do what you want. Other than that, I will definitely be going back and already booked another appointment! It was a very professional salon and I felt very pampered while I was there. Definitely a great place to go to treat yourself!

I’ve been going to studio be for about 3 years now, so it’s definitely time for me to write a review. This south location near the super target is newer than the old town location, and in general it’s a lot easier for me to find a parking spot close to the storefront. I also like that sephora is a few stores down, because if I’m early I can go browse for a little while, haha.
They start you off with a little service menu where you can check off what type of shampooing you would like plus any additional services (waxing for instance, but I’ve never gotten any of those here). They also offer you free drinks! I love sitting and waiting and getting my hair done with my glass of wine, or in my case tonight, with a bottle of Slow Ride New Belgium beer.
The hair wash experience is almost like a meditative one. I just feel so relaxed that I usually end up dozing off for awhile haha. And they offer you a steam towel for your neck or face, so that’s nice.
Anyways, I usually go to Bri for my hair cuts and partial colors, although I have also had Courtney for one of my partial colors. They’re both great, and I’m always very happy with how my hair turns out. My hair is one area where I will pay more to make sure I don’t end up with something tragic, and as such, I believe my haircuts are about $ 45 while my partial colors (only a certain number of foils) are about $ 80? Somewhere in that range. It depends on the level stylist that you have, and I believe Bri is a level 4 (higher number is more experienced).
They do tell you what hair products they use on you when styling, and make a suggestion that you purchase this or that, but it’s your decision and it’s okay to say no. On the other hand, I have purchased the awapahui treatment oil on their suggestion because I like how my hair feels and smells with it, and I’m very happy that I did so. The bottle lasted me quite awhile, and I’m on my 2^nd one now.

Studio Be is an amazing salon! Whatever stylist you go to here you know your going to get nothing short of a great color and/​or cut! The experience and customer service they offer goes above and beyond any salon I’ve ever been to, hands down. They are all so helpful with any questions or hair concerns and really make you feel welcome from the minute you walk into the door! I love Studio Be and only wish they had a location in California where I am moving to!

Studio Be is my favorite place to get my hair cut and colored! I drive all the way from Denver just to go. Amanda is the best and always does a amazing job. Between the scalp massages and the refreshments I always leave feeling relaxed and beautiful!

After posting a negative review following a very disappointing cut & highlight appointment, the salon’s management contacted me and offered to fix my hair AND refund my money. They got me in right away to see an «Element 4» (very experienced) stylist. I am very impressed with Studio Be’s customer service and feel that they did everything in their power to make it right and give me a positive experience at their salon. I am still not in love with my hair, but the new cut and color are a big improvement. Maybe I am just too picky, who knows? In any event, I feel that Studio Be does care about providing outstanding customer service and value and I can confidently say that they will do their best to make sure customers are satisfied with the services they provide.
