Green with Envy Salon

Ryan did an amazing job. I don’t remember the last time I was given a shampoo with a cut without asking for it. When did that go out of style? I mean, I love getting my hair pulled out by the stylist with a comb because of the handful of product I use as much as the next guy but a wash before a cut is appreciated… The cut was fantastic. No detail was skipped and she cut it perfectly even though I didn’t really tell her what I wanted. She also knew how much conversation to have; I hate when stylists just keep rambling on about their kids and husband and blah blah blah. I will be back for my next cut.

My recent experience at Green with Envy was perfect from start to finish! I spoke with the owner while making my appointment and he could tell I was nervous trying a new stylist. He was so kind and professional, he really made me feel at ease and I had a great feeling about it.
Then, when I came into the salon and met with Ryan, my stylist, my experience just got better and better. She was very welcoming and made every effort to be sure I was happy with my hair. Her personality is so warm and friendly and she really knew what she was doing. I was blown away with the amount of care I was shown. (It is so rare these days…) And, to top it all off, I left with my hair looking fabulous and she also touched up my makeup! I highly recommend Green with Envy and Ryan!

I went to Winona with dead, dull, and desperate hair. I started off with just a color-​correcting consultation since being a natural blonde, going brunette and now wanting to back towards the lighter side seemed like quite a process and I really wanted some professional help.
She provided lots of great advice during the consultation, informed me of their products, and even sent me home with a bunch of samples to help out my hair before the appointment, WHICH she made on her day off, because I had mentioned I wanted to fix my hair before my boyfriend got back, and none of the other days she was working fit with my schedule.
I got color and a full highlight AND I have extensions which she threw lolights in to match my hair PERFECTLY, and she even let me clip them in and she cut them to blend in with my hair. This was a long process, and at no point did I ever feel like she was rushing, or was unpleased with being there. Another woman even stayed after she was finished with her last client to help blow dry my extensions.
Overall, this salon is nothing sjort of amazing. It’s clean, modern, in a BEAUTIFUL living complex, and every stylist was very friendly. I finally love my hair again, and I feel like it’s on the road to recovery! I’ll definitely be going back.

I love this place! I’ve gotten my hair done, received a facial and also a massage. All services have been great! Bao is my hair dresser and he is truly gifted with hair!

Great find! I was traveling and came across this salon when I needed my color done. The place is really nice, the products they use are so amazing, and the staff were great. Wish this place was near where I live in Toronto, Canada!

Was looking for a trim as my hair was getting too long and showed Heather my stylist a pic of a popular hairstyle in Korea. That hairstyle was labeled under the short category… Alas I forgot that when you ask for a short to medium haircut in America your on the gravy train towards looking like Mike the Situation. (Just check the difference in google! There is a big difference in length)
Sadly what I got was a short haircut with a razored sides and a back that had zero texturing.
I guess stylists don’t know what to do with an Asian male hair as I’ve gotten this haircut 3x in a row in Arizona when I’ve asked for medium length bangs haircut.
Lesson learned; got to be more specific with what I want and next time ask for a long hairstyle.

They’re trying out new services and one of them includes massages, which I got, and thanks to Judy, it was fantastic! She was very professional and new what areas needed more attention than others. I walked out of there relaxed and soothed. Thanks, Judy!

Fit me in on short notice for a mens cut and color. Overall I was happy with the service. Boa took care of my hair and did a great job. From a guy’s perspective, the place was comfortable. Price was very fair, I was actually surprised as I was expecting my final amount due to be higher. Now if someone there would have helped me pick a sick new haircut, then I would have given them 5 stars!

I did my research on Organics and I found out that the hair color that Green with Envy uses still has 2% ammonia. I was not happy about that cause I’m looking for a real Organic salon that I can feel safe about what’s being put on my head. I’ll look into a different salon. When I originally went for a haircut here, I got lost in the building complex trying to find them. That was a bit annoying also! It takes an extra 15 – 20 mins to park and wander around to find them. I won’t be back…

Got excited when I saw a 20% off Unilocal discount for new customers. Came here for a deep conditioning treatment and a hair cut. The total came out to $ 65ish.
I made an appointment online and immediately received a phone call front the salon. BAO was friendly and asked just enough questions to make me feel comfortable. He wasn’t overly talkative which I loved. (I hate talkative hair dressers)
The salon inside is really cute and clean. The chairs for the hair washing station is way cool!
The only negative was their parking. It’s SOOOO hard to find and when I did park, the salon was on the opposite side so I kept wondering around the complex. (The salon is nestled inside an apartment building)

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a REAL haircut… and I desprately needed it. I actually bought a groupon and was a little weary, but for 30 bucks i thought eh, why not! Heather was my stylist and she was GREAT! she gave me a lot of pointers that I had no idea about and just gave me an amazing cut.
The organic products kind of scared me in theory, but my hair has never been so silky and smooth, and they all smelled so awesome [not like aloe and weird herby stuff i was used to]
I was so happy I made an appointment for the 6^th to get my hair dyed!

One of my dear friends C is always complaining that I pay way to much for my haircuts and they don’t even do a good job. After about 2 years of hearing him brag about his stylist Genesis I finally decided to go and try out Green With Envy. I’m really skeptical with my hair because I have so much hair and the thickness of my hair is unbelievable. My hair is not some type of hair you can take to SuperCuts and get a haircut. An artist has to cut my hair because there is so much process to it.
As I walked into Green With Envy the ladies at the front were very nice and professional. I knew by their attitude that I was going to love this place. As I sat down waiting for Genesis I was very nervous. She came to the front to get me and took me back to her chair. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and told her to be honest with me if this haircut would work or not. She was very honest and said she loved it and thought it was a great look for me. Then I explained to her how people are always asking to cut to my hair because of its thickness but then they end up messing it up. I asked her if she could handle the job and she said with no problem.
As she was washing and lathering my hair I was so nervous because I have a vision of how my hair needs to look in 3 months for my 30^th birthday. Once we were at the chair Genesis got to work. I am so glad she is a talker because when I get my hair done I think it is like therapy, I spill everything. Genesis sat there and listened and laughed with me. She kept cutting away and all this hair was falling out and in my head I kept thinking, OMG, she is cutting out all my hair.
Needless to say, the final product was amazing. She had cut my hair like no other stylist had cut it before. I was glowing and feeling sexy! She told me that we had some more work to put into it if we were going to get the vision I had for my 30^th birthday but, as for now this was great! I AM SO IMPRESSED WITH GENESIS AND SHE IS MY NEW FOUND LOVE FOR MY HAIR!!!
I can’t speak for girls but if you are a guy, you need to hit up Genesis. I’m sure she is so awesome with girls to.
Thank you Genesis!

I went to cut my hair about a months ago, and I LOVED it!!!
It took me this long time to post a review because I was so happy of my hair cut and I totally forgot it …
My hair stylist was Bao and he took his time to choose a color and listened what kind of heir style I want. He did awesome job on my thick, coarse Asian hair and I love it.
The atmosphere of the salon is very friendly and relaxing. Got lost to find the place but the person who talked on the phone came out from the shop and took me there. Very comfortable and great service.
I highly recommend Bao!!!

I had only experienced a cut with Bao before and fell in love that day. I returned to try highlights, and it turned out FABulous. Bao took the time to get the right color. Most ladies with black hair know how hard it is to get the right color when your hair is lightened. If you are asian, go see Bao. If you have thick hair, go see Bao. You know what… if have hair on your head… go see Bao!

I absolutely love this salon. I migrated here with my hair dresser (Khristine) and have loved coming here since! The salon is clean and inviting offering fantastic organic, nontoxic and chemical free hair products that smell wonderful and work WELL. Practically everything about this place had sustainability in mind.
The staff is professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. Khristine is an amazing stylist and has given me conservative straight styles to voluminous and curly when I wanted to try something new.
This place gets 5 stars from be not only due to the ethos of the salon, but also Khristine is my favorite.

I haven’t been much for hair salons, especially as a guy who normally just buzzes his hair down because he never likes the way anyone cuts it. But Khristine cut my wife’s hair so I was forced to try her out. She is awesome, wonderful atmosphere, great music and an even better hair stylist. I don’t need much more then a cut but I do enjoy the massages and whole experience.
I highly recommend Khristine Leatherman for those of you looking for a new awesome stylist. She has done a great job getting my favorite blonde and red streaks in her hair. something that most everyone screws up.

HEADS UP: If you’re looking for Shelby, she’s now at Ramon Bacaui Salon in Old Town Scottsdale.
If you actually manage to find Green With Envy in the sprawling-​but-​beautiful disaster that is Optima Camelview, you can get a great cut here. (By the way, it’s the second suite in from the valet stand and behind Nourish. And you’re supposed to park in the spots with red placards. Green ones are reserved. Funky, I know.)
When I found out my favorite stylist had moved to Scottsdale, I had my reservations having grown up in the Valley. But Green With Envy is a laid-​back, friendly, great place to get a haircut. There’s none of that attitude here that earned the city its nickname.
Despite being an organic and earth-​friendly salon (and being in one of the swankier sections of Scottsdale), their prices even best many other salons in the EV and Phoenix. At the quality of service I’ve received from Shelby and seen other guests receive from their stylists, it’s a bargain. It also smells great in here – no singed hair or chemical smells. I’ve repeatedly had other clients getting dye jobs right next to me and smelled nothing but a faint grape Kool-​aid kind of smell. It’s a winner.
Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area and want a killer cut.

I really don’t have time to write much now BUT I will say the most important things:
1. Awesome service
2. Cool & down to earth staff. Very, Very friendly & professional
3. Eric is truly a creatively in tuned hair styling GOD!
(…and he’s damn handsome too;-P)
Also:
4. Very affordable and great results!
5. As eco-​friendly as it gets for a hair studio
If you go there… NO, I mean WHEN you go there let them know you saw this on Unilocal and tell them I sent yah:-P …They have a GREAT referral program too!

«Holy cow, this man just gave me ‘f**k me hair’!» that’s what I thought when Eric spun me around to the mirror today after styling my hair. You know how you start writing the Unilocal review as soon as you enter the place? When I saw myself all thoughts left me except ‘christ I look good.‘
It would be dismissive to give GwE 5 stars based only on their premise of Organic hair care and styling, but I might have done it anyway because I really truly believe that everyone needs to read the ingredient labels of all the products they use (hair, face, body) and really think about what dubious chemistry is seeping into their bodies every day. I will be a Green with Envy girl for the rest of my stay here in the Valley, not only because their business philosophy is ethical and whole-​hearted but because they have excellent stylists.
Today I saw Eric Flotta who was nice enough to take me as soon as he came in, even though I was half an hour early. And he didn’t scream in horror at my post-​workout hair, just led me over to the sink to start my wash/​style/​blowdry. He told me about some of the organic products that the salon uses and carries for retail purchase and even mentioned that GwE uses the first and only hair color that doesn’t include toxic chemicals.
Eric didn’t do any wild and crazy hair makeover on me, but my hair does look very sexy and different. I like that he could take my frightening mess and turn it into something simple and beautiful in not a lot of time and with minimal product in it. He recommended a product to me and though I am a staunchly opposed to buying salon hair care I did because it’s organic and makes me look nice!
Also, they have a $ 35 women’s haircut special which proves that earth-​friendly organics can be luxurious AND affordable. Now I want them to get some formaldehyde-​free nail polishes and start up some manicures and pedicures!

I love having the access to organic products and this salon has got it right!
I had been in denial about how bad my hair was. I was beyond in need of a haircut, full of split ends, and some really terrible highlights. Kittim was great! He recommended some highlights within my budget and enough to tone down the somewhat leopard streaking my hair had taken, along with cutting out pounds of excess hair (I have very very thick hair). The scalp massage was awesome and the hair products smelled good, not all fakey and flowery like some, and not all sagey like some organic products. I will definitely be back here
