Robert Cris Salon

I can not believe people are putting bad things on Robertcris salons page! From the best front desk girl Stacy to my stylist, I feel like I get awesome service! My hair has not felt as good as it does now due to the great colors and products! The staff is super friendly and fun ! I would never go to anyone else in Delaware! If you want the best, you will get the best! It is the best salon I have ever been to, and I have had almost everyone do my hair! Very talented team!!! Will never leave you guys!!!

Sadly, last time I had my hair done by a different stylist, she FRIED it. I had to get about 4 to 5 inches cut over a 1 month period of time. But stylist that cut my hair said it was due to the hair straightening. I did not report this to the owner (s) to give them a chance to fix the problem, but sure how much can be done when you overly process someone’s hair to the point that you have to get it cut off. I found another stylist who did an AMAZING job and was so sure to keep my hair healthy. She was also certified in the product I use.

Very nice place! Everyone was wonderful!
The only little thing is that I asked for my hair to be a couple of inches under my shoulder and she cut it above my shoulder.
Maybe next time I should be more explicit about it. Other than that would def recommend!

I’ve lived in LA, NYC, DC, and Philly and Robert Cris compares to some of my favorite salons in those cities. My stylist, Shayla, does an amazing job. She listens to my feedback, is vivacious and fun, and delivers a super haircut and color time and time again. The compliments have not stopped since I started coming here. My husband is also a devoted fan of Shayla’s. This is a gem of a salon and probably the best in the Wilmington area.

Awesome salon, great staff, meticulous with hair! i moved here from Denver, CO and it took my a long time to find a local stylist that i loved. AMY JOHNSON is a color magician and is the sweetest and kindest person EVER! I have blonde highlights and was previously getting 7 different colors and she transformed my hair with only 2 colors, lots of patience, and got it super healthy again. The prices are very reasonable and the service is outstanding. AMY always has assistants on hand to help with shampoo etc so she can focus on her top talent: HAIR COLOR and cuts. Also i have long hair and am. well… pretty high maintenance when it comes to my hair. She asked me to come in for a consult before she ever did anything to my hair to make sure we would be on the same page and i have never been happier with my hair style or hair color. also STACEY at the front desk is a gorgeous red head with a glowing smile and always confirms every appointment in advance. Amy has never run late in 4 years for me. SHAYLA is the best assistant — sweet, great help to Amy — and ensures Amy runs efficiently and on time. Love this place — wish i could give them 10 stars. Not sure why anyone would give them a 1 star — hard to believe that person was actually here.

Gave them a couple of chances but did not work out at all. First time there for a color and style asked to keep my hair wavy as i do not like pin-​straight look, and hold and behold came out with a straight blow-​out. Gave them a second chance and this time went in for a trim, asked to keep my cut in a V style in the back and the stylists had no clue how to cut it, so that tells me that they are not up to date with the current cuts/​styles. They tried and ended up with uneven cut that even my husband noticed. When I went back to get it corrected the stylist said ‘Oh it’s not bad, if you leave your hair curly you can’t tell”, no apologies no nothing! Excuse me but I’m paying for the service and want it done right! Needles to say have not been back and found Salon 926, they get 5 stars!

I never write Unilocal reviews but I have to spread the word– this place is awesome! Amy/​Lindsay teamed up to achieve the exact look I wanted (bright blonde balayage). They were so dedicated to helping me get the perfect color and even saw me again the next day for touchups. The salon itself is beautiful, very modern and serene. If you are looking to try something new, especially with color, go see Amy or Lindsay and they will take care of you. A bit pricey but definitely worth it!

Men’s cuts are reasonably priced, and the atmosphere is great. Everyone is pleasant to talk to. Even after trying three different stylists, I wasn’t able to find one that understood what kind of haircut I was going for, though.

Cristy is an incredible stylist! I’ve gone to many salons through the years including Cristophe’s in LA. Cristy is by far the best — she’s an absolute love, great to work with, and always exceptional in her professionalism, her talent, and best of all, the consistency and high level hairstyles that I get every time I’m there.
The ambiance @ Robert Cris Salon is classy yet very warm & comfortable. Robert & Alyssa, at the front desk, are also wonderful to work with. High recommends for Cristy, Robert & their entire Robert Cris Salon staff.

I was heartbroken to leave my stylist in Austin when I moved back east. I had very high expectations. I tried going to Philly but it was a hassle and it wasn’t worth the time or money. Both my parents go to the salon so I decided to give it a try. Cristy is great. She convinced me to give up Kertain treatments and embrace my natural texture. My hair is healthy and natural and I always get compliments on my color. I would highly recommend her and the salon. Robert, her husband, runs the front desk. He was patient with me when I first started, answering my questions about services and my needs.

I LOVE going to this salon. It’s tucked away in Greenville, DE, but not hard to find once you know where it is. In some salons, you hear gossiping among stylists or complaints about the management. Not here. Here, you leave your cares at the door, and the vibe is one of peace and happiness. Bethanne has been my stylist there for awhile now and she always gets my hair just right. They offer wonderful products there for sale, but do not push them on you. It’s clean and fresh and welcoming. Wish I could live there!

Yvette at Robert Cris is the first stylist to really «get» my difficult hair. She is a complete professional and super talented.
The salon itself is lovely as well — it’s very sleek and relaxing.

FANTASTIC! I just went there to get my hair colored blonde. I am a mixed race female with very dark hair. While it did end up costing quite a bit, the color and cut came out PERFECTLY. I brought in a photo without a lot of expectation, but my wishes were exceeded. Not only is the color perfect on my skin tone, but the cut and bangs are to DIE FOR!
My hair is so crazy kookie I didn’t think they would be able to get it right. But after 22 years of having the same hairstyle I have fallen in love. They are upfont and honest about what you need to do to get what you want and how much it will take and they aren’t going to let you leave the salon with an unattractive do!
Recommend 100%~~

I have been going to this salon for a couple of years now. My previous stylist moved away and she recommended Yvonne. I had very long hair and wanted to make sure the stylist liked working with long hair. Yvonne not only likes it, she did wonders with the color and when I finally decided to go a bit shorter, she made it look fabulous. I have had the opportunity to observe the other stylists and they all do a great job and the ladies and gentleman always seem to leave looking great and happy. i highly recommend RobertCris Salon to anyone. If you have long hair or need a great haircut, Yvonne is your lady!

AMAZING! I moved to Wilmington a year and a half ago leaving my stylist of 7 years. I used a temporary salon for 6 months where I was not really happy with the results. After searching on the internet for a last minute effort to find a salon, I came across Robert Cris and spoke to the owner Robert. He was awesome. He was able to get me in right before they closed the shop, I think even keeping it open after they closed for my stylist Amy to finish up. First off, I have never experienced the owner of a salon taking in a last minute new client and even keeping the salon open for me after they closed. Secondly, Amy is the most amazing stylist i have used before. She knows how to work with curly hair and she knows exactly what I want. The look of this salon is beautiful and modern. I would highly recommend this place to everyone looking for quality service for their hair and amazing customer service. I cant wait to use them for my upcoming wedding as well!

This review is for someone else who may have had this happen to them: I recently decided to switch hair salons and ended up with a hair color disaster. I have fine, highlighted hair and could not afford a hair disaster. In desperation I went on Unilocal and found the Robert Cris salon. Christy turned out to be WONDERFUL. She really understands hair and takes her job super seriously. She spent a great deal of time talking to me and trying to figure out why I had ended up with such awful hair. She then fit me into her busy schedule and COMPLETELY turned my hair color around. I left the salon with «new» hair. Fantastic. I have been to every «high end» salon in Wilmington and she is the best. I used to get my hair cut in NY — no need for that anymore either! In addition, the salon itself is an ultra modern, chic place. Highly highly recommend!

I just moved to the area from San Francisco. I was far more concerned with finding the perfect salon than finding a house. I have curly thick hair and I love the stylist who I had to sadly leave behind in California. Let me just say that Cristy exceeded my expectations. She is lovely inside and out and did a great job on my hair. I had a foil and cut and it is exactly what I wanted. She spent time really listening to me and executed to perfection. In addition the salon is chic and beautiful. I highly recommend checking out the Robert Chris Salon.

Ah-​mazing. Start to finish, the entire experience was bliss. I didn’t want to go home at the end. I wanted there to be more services! Desert!
Finally, this is a place that actually does a consultation before they start applying products to your hair! And by consultation I don’t mean the five minute conversation you have every time you go to a salon where they ask what you want to do «this time». I mean a real, fifteen minute discussion in a chair with great lighting where you discuss the condition of your hair, your concerns, the look you are trying to achieve, what cut is best suited for your face, etc… A real consultation!
That is only the beginning — Lindsay was my stylist and she was incredible. She did so many little things right. And that is the difference. Most places today skip the little things because they don’t want to waste the time or they think the client won’t notice. But when someone does take the time do it right, we do notice — today I noticed enough to actually tell others about it and this place is spot on.

From the overall customer experience to the finished product, (the ‘product’ being your hair cut/​style) Robert Cris Salon is about the best it gets in the Delaware Valley, and I state this from experience.
It’s taken me two years to find a place I’m happy with in New York, where I typically get my hair cut; but being in Delaware for a few months, I began a search of the area’s salons to hopefully find my zen. I’m really not a fussy guy over my hair, I just like a good cut that makes me look and feel better. After trying a few of the large, expensive salons, I found Robert Cris and decided to give this one a try as well.
After calling-​in & asking for an appointment, I was recommended by Robert to see his business partner Cris. The environment of the salon is beautiful, custom designed by the two owners but without the thick pretense one might expect. This is a SALON, nothing on the door says ‘spa’ which seems to be the trend with so many hair salons lately. Staff was attentive, warm, friendly. Located in the trendy Wilmington area of Greenville, I was even more surprised considering my experience with the locals has been negative for the most part, this experience being the exception.
Chris was helpful, suggesting we look through Google at some basic mens’ styles and cuts I might want to consider. And even though I was the last client of the day, coming in at 7:30 on a Thursday evening, I was treated with smiling staff, offered wine, soda, water; made comfortable and right at home with no visible signs of fatigue by any of the staff. I was completely at home and felt welcome and appreciated.
Great salon, friendly people, competitive price and overall excellent experience.

I’ve been dying my hair from a box for the last few months, so I knew I needed some serious help. Not to mention that my hair is insanely curly. I’d been referred to this salon from a friend and she always looks good so I wanted to try them out.
Immediately when I pulled up their website I could tell that it was like nothing else in Delaware. I’ve only seen salons that look like this in NYC or Philly. Super modern and cool… not hoity toity old money Greenville but like somewhere you’d go in a WAY cooler city. I was super excited and called them up. The owner answered, which was a surprise and when I explained my hair and the problem, he booked me for a consultation BEFORE my appointment to make sure we did the right things to it and had enough time when I came in for service.
The owner, Robert, answered was at the front desk again (?) and yeah, he’s a looker. He introduces me to Cristy, and she is also insanely cute. Cristy has curly hair as well she tells me, although she doesn’t wear it that way. She knew right away what type of style I wanted and even though she was totally swamped that Sat morning, she did a strand test on my hair to see if she could even color correct it at all and how it would look.
I really appreciated that service, especially since they could have just booked me from the beginning. But that is the difference between this salon and others. They really go that extra mile to know what you want and do it perfectly.
Needless to say I just came out of there with new color, cut and highlights and I’ve never been happier with my hair. Cristy is a color and cutting genius. I highly, HIGHLY recommend.
