All About U Salon

I have never had a better experience at a salon. After years and years of looking for a stylist that didn’t butcher my hair and leave me in tears or just flat out not listen to what I was looking for… I finally found one in Jacqueline. She was honest with me about what we would be able to achieve and she did exactly what we discussed… no surprises when the foils came out. Everyone in the salon was friendly and the place is so cute! To top it off, I left loving my hair! I’d definitely recommend her!

I tried this salon on a recommendation a few months ago. I did a partial highlight. Several strands came out brassy instead of blond. It didn’t look good at all. Even my husband noticed and was super disappointed. On the flip side three different stylists cut my kids hair (one for each kid), and they did great! I guess it depends on who you get.

Stylists aren’t very knowledgeable about hair at all. Had to guide my stylist on how to bleach hair and she wanted to bleach it back to back 3 times in the same sitting. Not to mention my butchered hair cut and how she talked trash about all the other stylists there, very bad vibe in that salon! & no I never worked there and unless Lauren is the one that was fired you still have a problem with your stylists!!! Also thanks for confirming that there are issues in your salon to the whole Unilocal group.

Such a cute boutique/​salon, over looking a creek with cute and welcoming décor, I love this salon! I instantly fell in love and knew I would be coming here more often. Employees were really nice and sweet. And the set up of the boutique was really cute. I came here for my first time to get my prom hair done and Stephanie did a great job I was impressed. I was scared about coming here to get my makeup done, but I’m glad I got it done here, Lori is an amazing makeup artist and does an amazing job! She is so friendly and sweet. I was really impressed with my experience here. Thank you all about u!

Scheduling was easy and there’s a shop in the front so you can browse while you wait. The hair stylists more or less rent out a chair in the place and they seem to be individual contractors where they do everything unlike at salons like Tony and Guys where 3 people might be involved for a cut and color. I was disappointed my grays were not completed colored when we were done. I was told I had «resistant grays» but I color every 4 weeks and it was not a problem before. I may return and try someone else, but I was not satisfied with the results.

With all the 5 star reviews I was really excited to have my hair done here… boy was I disappointed! The person that butchered my hair just moved into the first place slot for worst haircut EVER!!!
I take pictures with me to every cut I go to, no matter how long the stylist and I have been working together. These aren’t random pictures of other people they are pictures of my cut, how I wear it, closeups of certain areas of the cut, etc. When I sat down and started showing her the pictures, she really didn’t even seem interested. Then she made some snide comment about my bands that basically sounded like my old stylist did a bad job. (I didn’t change salons because I was unhappy, I changed because I moved). I talked to her about my cut, showed her specific areas that I did NOT want cut because it was already a little too short. She didn’t do a comb through to get an idea of how my hair was cut, to see the angles, she just took me over to the wash station, then proceeded to chop the heck out of my hair. It is so short I will not need a cut again for 10 or 12 weeks, except for my bangs and those I can trim myself!
After my cut she gave her card, she specializes in curly hair… I have short straight hair. Shouldn’t the girls up front know what type of hair the stylist do best?

I had my first experience with this salon and, I have to say, it will not be my last!
I had Kelly as my stylist and she was absolutely awesome! I told her what I was looking for (wanted to cover up prior bleach on my brunette hair) and she gave me honest answers and opinions, which is very refreshing! She showed me samples of what the color would look like and the results were spot on! She also did some high and low lights and told me that because she didn’t do as many as the normal service, she would only charge me for what she did do!
The cut was also great! I’m sort of picky on how I like my hair cut, and she did an awesome job with it! She suggested me going shorter than I originally wanted (to cut off the damaged ends) and didn’t pressure me into doing it or cutting it all off anyways. I really appreciated her listening to me and what I wanted, rather than what she felt I needed or what she thought would look good (like I’ve experienced at other salons before.)
Overall, my experience was great! The salon is clean, the employees are friendly, and Kelly is an awesome stylist! I would definitely recommend this salon!

I got recommended Lauren Modawell about a year ago and have absolutely loved her as my stylist. I drive all the way from Flower Mound to have her do my hair. I really liked All About U Salon and their clothing boutique in the front, but I will definitely be following Lauren to her new location in McKinney!

I have searched for years for a hair stylist that is good at both hair cuts and coloring. I finally found one — Shelby Shaw. She is fantastic at color and does a great job cutting and styling hair. I will continue to get my hair done at All About U Salon by Shelby Shaw. I highly recommend her.

I’m seriously overly picky when it comes to my hair but I had Tori do it and it turned out AMAZING! She was professional, funny and most importantly highly skilled! Thanks again!

Gave this place another shot today and the experience was great. I will continue to come here for my color. Couldn’t be happier!

Lori does my eyelash extensions and she is the best. I drive all the way from The Colony to see her. Even though she’s a little expensive, I don’t mind it because she does such a great job. She makes sure my real lashes are not damaged each time I go and that is much appreciated. Thanks Lori!

My first visit was today with Kelli P for a trim and color and I can honestly say I have never had such a detailed hair cut in my life. She checked the line of my bob at least four times and my color is a gorgeous shade of brown with some awesome auburn. I could not be happier! The salon was friendly, clean and had an awesome shop area. I cannot recommend this salon enough. I have found my new home!

I called into the salon last minute on a Saturday afternoon after my normal stylist (at a different salon) told me she had overbooked an hour before my appointment. One of the stylists, Brooke, made an effort to get me in! Not only did she do an incredible job, she made me feel like she could give me all the time I needed without rushing me. We sat and talked about my hair and what I wanted to do with it before she even started. I think I may have found a new stylist!
Also, I wasn’t able to get out of the store without a new top… So many cute clothes that I just couldn’t pass up!

Go see Shelbi! I have had such a hard time finding a stylist I trust with my hair and I won’t go to anyone else now that I found Shelbi. She gives you exactly what you ask for. She really listens and pays attention. I am not one to ever book following appointments at the salon but I did after I was done my first appointment with Shelbi.

I found this salon through Unilocal when I moved to McKinney last year. I am so happy that I tried it out. I gave it 5 stars for 2 reasons:
1. Shelbi really is great! Thanks to the other reviewers I took their recommendation and scheduled my first appointment with Shelbi. She is wonderful about listening to you and giving you just the hair style/​color/​cut that you want most for your hair. She’s also such a genuinely sweet and thoughtful person that I really enjoy my appointments with her. In fact, everyone there has been really nice. It’s a great group.
2. You can book your appointments online through their website. If you’ve ever played phone tag with your stylist trying to book an appointment you will appreciate this feature. I can see when my stylist is available and schedule the appointment online. It takes less than a minute to reserve the time.

Fantastic experience. I am new to the area and was looking for someone to cut and color my hair. Was lucky enough to call just as Yolanda had a cancelation, and I’m happy to say that I found someone that easily! She’s very experienced and a perfectionist! Front desk staff is great, too. I’m looking forward to using their other services.

All About You says it all. This place has earned its great reputation. I am a 40 yr old male. The same person cut my hair for the first 30 years of my life. He retired and it took me 8 years to find a suitable replacement. I tried all sorts of places and people. All About You has filled that void. Thank you AAY! I had a few different stylist cut my hair here at AAY in the beginning and all have been above and beyond. Lauren has become my «go to» stylist every time now. She has worked her schedule around mine at times (without me knowing initially), she is professional and makes the hair cutting experience tension free. The place is full of kind, unpretentious people. They make you feel welcome at all times. All About You means exactly that. They make sure you know and feel comfortably with the fact that if you have any questions or concerns they will take care of it for you. I’ve never had to return for any follow up but if I did I know they would help me with anything I needed with a smile and at no charge. All you have to do is let them know what you would like.
Thank you AAY for all you do!

This is a beautiful business with an assortment of quality goods and services conveniently located on the western edge of Mckinney, TX. The woman (her name being synonymous to a popular model of Ford automobile, although spelled a bit differently) who cut my hair was professional, outstanding in her talents and very courteous.
And I’m not going back…
I believe they’ve fired me as a customer today. I’m not sure I understand why.
It started small with not asking me to book a future haircut as I was leaving an appointment. Today, it became «we’re busy, you’ll have to come back later». Normally, a customer notification call would have been in order should there be a scheduling problem, but I didn’t receive one.
OK, I can take a hint… I was leaving a $ 10 tip for a $ 20-​$ 25 bill, so hopefully it wasn’t me being overly frugal in that regard.
Again, great place, skills galore — and I’ll miss it. I really will…

Great service and friendly staff. Ask for Shelbi Shaw. She really listens to what you are wanting in a hair style. She has introduced me to different ways of achieving the hair color that I want. She also pays a lot attention to details. I always feel like I get the 5 star treatment.
