Sundance Salon & Spa

I was in the area today and called last min to see if they accept walk ins. Kelly got me in right away for a shellac manicure and eyebrow waxing. Both services were great and Kelly was super friendly. Only thing I wasn’t crazy about was the nail stations are in their own little private booth. If you’re not a talkative person it can be a bit awkward just sitting there for 30 mins. Also, if it hasn’t been mentioned they only take tips in cash or check.
For the shellac manicure, Kelly said they’ll take it off for free when you’re ready to have it removed. I don’t know if other places charge for this service (this was my first shellac manicure) but that seemed like a bonus.

I have been going to Edisa for about a year and a half now and I think she is phenomenal! Prior to going to Sundance, I had seen the same stylist in my hometown since I was 15 and I loved her. I had very high expectations and was very nervous to go to someone new. After my first visit, I was totally impressed. She is super thorough and my color has come out AMAZING every time. I was very blonde and wanted to tone things down so the upkeep would be less during grad school, she did such a good job! I was able to go 4 mos without any color. I literally would let her do anything she wanted because I know it would come out good. LOVE LOVE LOVE her. Only downside to the salon… they have have a huge mural of whimsical flowers and birds, and it really is kind of weird (sorry ladies). Also, they only allow gratuity as cash or check.

I feel bad writing this but I don’t want anyone else to go through what I did. I went to the owner Michelle with a pic of hair I wanted. I discussed prior on the phone and sent an email. She said it could be done but could take a few times. Ok. After the first time I was no where near close. And the highlights were very uneven. She said they would come out in a few Washings. They didn’t so I went back and she put a few in but didn’t seem excited about it. I just went again this week and all my beautiful highlights some how got covered up during the process of doing my roots adding more highlights and lowlights. Not to mention Michelle got hair color all over my face in my ears down my neck. Said it was due to the bleach plus color something. Anyway I’m like 100% darker than I was before I went in. Everyone at work said it looked horrible and to go back. So I have now called twice and was told she was going to call me right back and no one called. I won’t be going back. Even if they did call me at this point. Who’s got the time money and effort for all this work for a few foils? I am giving it two stars instead of one because the hair trim I got by one of the other girls came out great. So that’s a plus.

Michelle has been my hair stylist for 20 years. She always takes into consideration my thoughts and offers constructive input based on current styles, trends and my face shape (which has changed drastically over the years… heavy, thin, kids, etc.). Whether she makes me a blonde or red-​head, short hair or long hair Michelle always makes me feel glamorous. I trust her implicitly! The newest location of Sundance is perfect. Plenty of parking in a convenient location. And who doesn’t love a place where they serve water in wine glasses and always make me feel special.

Ambiance was great, ladies were very nice, but my haircut wasn’t anything special for the price. I could’ve gotten the same cut for half the price at Master Cuts or somewhere like it.

I was looking for a last-​minute facial, and found this place, which had an opening and also had the option to book appointments online. I booked an appointment with Ashley.
When I showed up, I was pleasantly surprised by the small but calming waiting room, with a Keurig coffee maker, water, and some products and jewelry for sale. I waited for a few minutes before someone came to greet me, but I wasn’t in a hurry.
A receptionist came out and greeted me, and let me know that Ashley would be with me soon. A few more minutes passed, and Ashley appeared, introduced herself, had me fill out a form about my skin care needs, offered me a glass of water, and led me back to the facial room.
I passed a few other rooms on the way back– a room made for pedicures, a huge rack filled with OPI nail polishes, and seats and mirrors in the hair salon portion.
The small room we entered was peaceful, with soothing music playing and calming décor.
Ashley explained the whole process to me, walking me through each step and what every product would do so I knew what to expect. She was friendly and did a great job– it was very relaxing and refreshing.
I really enjoyed my experience here, and would like to try some of their other services, such as a shellac manicure or hair cut and style.
It is worth noting that you should bring some cash– although they accept credit and debit cards for services, you cannot add the tip to them.

I cannot say enough great things about Whitney. She took my hair from a light brown to a burgundy plum this past visit. A little over 2 hours and she turned my frizzy mess of hair into a beautiful sleek new look. All the while having great conversation and service. My hair has been the talk of my job/​friends for the last week because of it and everyone loves my hair!!! I encourage Whitney to have fun with my hair within certain guidelines because I’m so comfortable with her and her creativity/​abilities. Though I almost had a heart attack when I was told the price– she assured me maintenance would be considerably less. I’d rather pay for it to be done perfectly than to pay for an inexpensive hair style! If you are the same… Go visit Whitney! You will be thrilled with your decision.

I decided to try a new salon based on good Unilocal reviews so I went to Sundance. First of all, you can make an appointment online which earns them extra stars! It’s great to be able to choose from a calendar so you can see all your time and day options. Before my appointment I filled out a very thorough profile about my hair, products I use, type of style I wanted, etc. Then I met with Whitney who really paid attention to what I’d written and talked to me about what I wanted. I wasn’t sure what I wanted so she told me what she pictured for me and I went with it. I was so happy with my haircut and I just got my 2^nd cut from Whitney. She is not only a great stylist but also an absolute doll. She is easy to talk to and very kind. I highly recommend Sundance and Whitney!

My husband got me a «spa day» for my birthday. This isn’t the Winvian — definitely more salon than spa. Still, my facial was so amazing that they get five stars from me. Granted, I haven’t gotten many facials. However, Corinne was fantastic. She was present and pleasant. She took her time and it was very relaxing. I booked another appointment with her before I left!
I also got a manicure and a haircut. The manicure held up well, and I liked my haircut too. However, I’m not very particular about either of those.

I have been looking for a salon for a while and have bounced around a few times. I am so glad I finally found this salon. Corrine was wonderful. She listened to me and gave me suggestions that ended up looking great. When she was drying my hair she took the time to explain exactly what she was doing so that I can do it myself at home. I will definitely keep coming back. I highly recommend this salon.

I was so pleased with my first experience. Whitney did my highlight and cut. They start with a thorough intake sheet combined with a genuine consultation. She asked me a ton of great questions about what I wanted and how I care for my hair. You can tell they do not start a service if they aren’t on the same page as you. I was thrilled with how my hair turned out, and I feel pretty for the first time in awhile. Oh, and the place is beautiful – painted murals and beautiful colors. So glad I went!

I was visiting my sister who lives close to Sundance. I was actually driving by, and stopped in at the Elizabeth Grady spa to make an appointment– but when I walked in, the atmosphere was a bit unwelcoming (and quite expensive for a place I didn’t feel entirely comfortable with). So, I went home and checked online to see if there was a spa in the area that had a bit better customer reviews.
Then, I found Sundance. I made an appointment with Ashley for a massage. She is so kind, wonderful, and talented. Whitney, who is a very talented stylist, gave me a relaxing deep conditioning treatment and I also received an awesome paraffin treatment!
It’s such a great place– the entire staff is awesome, and Ashley is absolutely an amazing therapist.
I truly recommend this place over any place in the area!

I’ve been to Sundance twice so far and have had a partial highlight and haircut by Corinne. She’s done a great job both times and I have nothing but good things to say about my experiences overall. She’s friendly and makes sure to tell you what she’s doing while she’s doing it. And she gives the best scalp massage when she’s shampooing your hair! (what a treat!). I’ll definitely be making this my «regular» salon. Oh, and they always offer you some sort of beverage (water, coffee, etc.) when you arrive, which is really nice. I’d highly recommend this salon! Another nice feature is the online appointment scheduling — very convenient.

Excellent customer care, great price, friendly staff and best of all, a truly terrific hair cut. I’ve never seen my teenage daughter so happy with a haircut. Michelle, her hair stylist, really listened and asked great questions to understand my daughter’s wishes and needs for her haircut.
(They even have customers fill out a form upon arrival to really get to what they want/​need from a hairstyle.) She also gave her great information about how to keep her hair healthy and looking its best. And the price was incredibly reasonable for Glastonbury.

What a great place. My first time was a few weeks before Christmas and it was a great choice. Michelle was my stylist and is the owner. Really nice and had some great ideas for my hair. The following week Michelle was away so another woman (i forgot her name sorry!) styled my hair for my Hubby’s Christmas party. Another success story along with my Shellac Mani I had the same night. So good I sent my VERY picky mother and she was impressed as well. Great location and it is true what their sign says when you walk in the door «nice matters».

I moved to Glastonbury in August from New York City, where I’ve lived my whole life. I was super nervous about finding a salon up here… I guess anyone would be nervous about trusting your locks to a new set of hands. I went to Kim at Sundance after reading the reviews here and I am SO happy I did. She was really sweet and gave me some great advice — showed me a trick to get my hair to do something I never thought it could. The salon is hidden back — way back in a parking lot (behind the dance studio), but the space is really spacious and beautiful. I left feeling like a goddess!

Based on the two Unilocal reviews on here, I went for my first haircut at Sundance Salon yesterday.
Kim cut my hair and did a very good job. The place is a little hard to find, it is in the rear rear of a big plaza. I wish they had this info on their web site. The salon is a big open area and each stylist has a chair.
Kim took the time to listen to my story of my old hairdresser and the hack job she did on my hair. She asked me what I wanted and looked at my hair. She then proceeded to wash my hair, cut it wet, dry it and then cut it again dry. She told me what she was doing with each step.
This was not a quick blowdry job, she gave me a very thorough blow set and even showed me a quick hair trick. She gave me some options for hair color that were realistic and not too pricey. The staff seem very knowledgable and not at all pushy (to sell extra services) which is a big plus in my book. All this for $ 45 in Glastonbury? This is the best deal.
I then had my eybrows waxed by a lovely lady whom I forget her name but she was super sweet and did such a quick job on my brows. They looked great! She even put some cooling gel on them and they weren’t red or swollen at all. I don’ t know why I haven’t gone to them before, and come to find out my boss goes to them, too, and raves about them. I left the salon feeling like a million bucks. I got compliments on my hair all night. The next day I was able to style my hair fairly quickly and it looked good.
I will definitely be frequenting this place again.
UPDATE***
I’ve since gone back a second time to have my hair cut. In between my hair cut appointments, I went twice to have my bangs trimmed. The first lady who did it wasn’t the one who cut my hair initially. She did a very good job, taking off very little and my bangs and cut looked refreshed. I think her name was Michelle.
I went back 2 weeks later for a bang trim. I was asked like the other lady who wrote on this review board if I wanted my bangs «thinned out». I’m thinking… well a bang trim is like reshaping and I have no clue what «thinning out» was so I said sure. WRONG! My bangs looked horrible. And I have been walking around looking ridiculous ever since. 6 weeks later, my bangs are somewhat growing out, finally, thankfully. When I complained to the stylist, she had an excuse like the first time: «it’s only the second time I’ve cut your hair.» Excuse ME?!
You’re the hairstylist. At $ 45 a pop, $ 55 after tip, my hair better be looking boom-​banging, not like I used a flowbee at home on myself. I’ve booked the other stylist, and this lady will not be pawning a bad cut on me because I was uncommunicative or because she’s only seen me twice. I’ve had many hair stylists… and the better ones make me look good from the word GO! There is no warm up or ramping up to giving me a good hairstyle. It’s either you do, or you don’t. Besides the bangs, I did like the cut. But the bangs… it’s what everyone and I see everyday staring back at me. And my bangs were supershort and super funny looking.
I will update after I have visited the other hairstylist. I heard good things. If it goes well, will update stars.
UPDATE***
I went back for a haircut with Nizama. She did a great job. She was very careful with my bangs. I’ve been trying to grow my hair out and I“m kind of tired of my hair. I think it’s time for a new shorter do. I’m going to schedule another appt with Nizama so that I can get a new fresher look. BTW, got my eyebrows waxed for third time, got an awesome job done on the brows. I got the brows died darker… and though it was pretty cheap it didn’t last. It faded within 3 – 4 weeks. Not worth it. Use a brow pencil or powder.
UPDATE***
I have since gone for a haircut at another salon just to see if I can get a bit more consistency. Sundance will definitely be on my rotation for beauty services. The eyebrow waxing is very good. Probably some of the best I’ve had. The bikini waxing, though reasonably priced, they use hard wax, and I think it hurts and bruises more than it has to. I haven’t had color here, but many of the hairdressers and beauticians have worked at Sundance for several to many years so that is always a good sign. I think happy hairstylists mean there is a good owner/​manager. Avoid the salon that has a high turnover. People are unhappy and who wants an unhappy person going near their hair with scissors?

Just had my first appointment & it will NOT be the last! I booked after seeing the great reviews here on Unilocal.
I booked a Saturday afternoon appointment online (what a great feature!!) and the salon was both calm and clean, which is not common on a Saturday. My stylist, Renee, met me at in the reception area and we talked about what I liked/didn’t like about my hair and some ideas I had for how I wanted it styled. I left looking and feeling like a million bucks. Renee really listened to what I wanted and what my hair skills are (extraordinarily limited) and gave me a cut that looks great and is easy for me to do on my own, even if I’m in a hurry. We talked about the products I currently use and she made some helpful suggestions about others to try as well.
I will definitely go back again and am probably going to try getting some highlights now that I’ve had such a good experience with my cut. When I left the receptionist asked if I wanted to book another appointment and I did so on the spot. Good job! This didn’t happen in my last salon…

Searching online for a great salon and based upon the glowing Unilocal review for Sundance, I decided to try it out. I made an appointment online (LOVE this feature!) for the very next evening. So simple, and they gave me several different time options.
Nizama did an amazing job with my hair cut and blow out.
The only advice I would give is bring cash for the tip! They only take credit cards for the price of service, no option to add on a tip.

Alright, there’s a story behind this 5 star rating… and you get to hear it! :)
I had been happily going to my «regular» stylist, Lisa, for my usual «cut and color» — and suddenly, she quit… I got a call from the salon stating that she had left, and they didn’t know where she had gone — would I like to try someone else — NO! I tried to find Lisa, but was unsuccessful. SO, I needed to find someone else to «do» my hair. I did, and the result was the HAIRSTYLE FROM HELL!!! Ugh, my hair was a disaster — the color was all wrong and the cut was even worse! So, I lived with it for a few days and simply couldn’t take it any more (neither could my husband!). So, last night, in desperation, I tried to find someone who could «fix» the problem. I found Renee at Sundance! She is an angel!
First of all, Sundance has an online appt. booking system, so, no matter what time of day or night, you can make an appt. — It is soooo easy! Secondly, the place is simply terrific… a nice atmosphere — not caddy or noisy… just a relaxing place to spend some time. Chatter is relaxed and comfortable. Renee actually LISTENED to what I wanted done and she came up with some great suggestions which, in essence, saved my hair (and probably my marriage!) I left there feeling validated, pampered and pretty… what more can you ask for! FYI — they have a massage therapist, manicurist, etc. all on staff — this is a WONDERFUL, holistic salon!
