Sets the Standard for Hip Cuts, but You Can Find it Cheaper! – I started going to Bumble about 5 years ago and got hooked. They gave me a cut that had plenty of attitude, but also a good structure, so that it grew out nicely, and didn't need constant upkeep. The beautiful space, complimentary tea or coffee, and great shampoos make your experience relaxing and luxurious. However, over the years I feel that Bumble has toned down it's once edgy style - perhaps because more conservative clients now go there, and get freaked if t... read more

MULLET!!!! – MULLET I think that says it all. I walked in with beautiful, healthy, long hair with long layers and walked out with a flipping BUSINESS IN THE FRONT/PARTY IN THE BACK mockery of a hair cut. somewhere between joan jett from the 80's, aniston from '93 and cool hockey dudes back in the early 90's. my hair WAS COMPLETELY BUTCHERED WITH THAT FLIPPING RAZOR BS. I am afraid to leave the house and probalby haven't cried this hard since I broke up with my last looser boyfriend. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP THE SHROOM DOWN IS TO... read more

Not worth the money or the buzz – Their space is great and the stylist was nice, but it all comes down to how you look when you leave the place, and I looked exactly the same as when I came in, only $100 lighter. I wouldn't go back there. There are plenty of other places you could waste that much money for a modest trim.

Talented stylists, high quality product – I highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a style change- they are great at providing individualized cuts to your specific face/head shape, hair texture, lifestyle, maintenance preference, personality, etc. I've seen Coby and Tom for cuts, and Victoria for color. Each time I left extremely satisfied with their services. Also, check out their great product line- I don't know where I'd be without their grooming creme...seriously

Go for the free haircut - it's AWESOME!!! – I would never pay $200 or however much they charge for a cut at any salon, but I signed up to be a model since it was free. I had a shoulder-length bob-type haircut and went in for the "current cut." It was an amazing experience! If you have a choice, go for the current cut, which means you can get any style you want. After a very thorough consultation with the student (a "student" is a professional stylist w/ experience that is learning the Bb approach), approved by a Bb master st... read more

AVOID KATE!!!! – DON'T GO TO KATE!!! I got my hair cut at Bumble and Bumble after a friend of mine recommended it. Other stylists may be better, but my experience with Kate was the worst I have ever had at a salon! I specifically asked her not to cut bangs because bangs require styling, and I have to be at work too early in the morning to always dry my hair. She was in such a rush that she did not take the time to listen to what I had to say and for some reason decided to cut them anyway. As she was cutting, I told her that ... read more

See Victoria When You Need Goof-Proof Color – I walked in an over processed blond. My hear was brittle, my ends were dry. VICTORIA walked up to me, looked at me and said, "I hope you are going brunette, you'll be gorgeous." Funny, I was. We talked extensively about my desire for a rich, flattering brown that was not mousy or ashy. I trusted her and walked out of the salon with the most gorgeous, healthy looking chestnut and highlight combo I had ever seen. For someone who was blonde for 10 years (since I was 16) it's pretty ... read more

A victim of its own success – The cut was adequate, but beware: 1) The salon sells its own hair products, which it shamelessly pushes on clients. Three different gels, sprays, or lotions were used to style my usually wash and wear hair, giving it the texture of straw. 2) The assistant was left alone to style my hair, and the combination of excessive product use and his inexperience left me looking like a shaggy mushroom. When I expressed my dissatisfaction, the stylist "disagreed," and would not re-style it. Finally, I had m... read more

BUTCHERED MY HAIR! – THE WORST HAIRCUT EVER! Razor cut not recommended!!! My stylist butchered my hair!!!!!!!! Instead of trimming my healthy long hair (which took a year to grow) as requested, he chopped and thinned it. My hair is now unmanageable, flat and damaged. I was a "wash and go" type of girl...now it takes me hours to look somewhat acceptable.
