Color is always complimentary to my skintones and the haircut is always stylish & up to date. The shop employees are very friendly and accomodating. Great value for the money

2 Stars: Great color -- awful cuts (by Jeanne S.)

I moved here from NYC last year and was in need of a good salon. My first appointment at Sobel was good because I didn't ask for anything different and there was already a good base with which to work that had been established by my previous stylist. The next time was definitely not as good although acceptable but the third time was a complete disaster as far as the cut was concerned. I asked for long layers for volume and I ended up with an extremely short cut that was thinned out unnecessarily and unfortunately is now totally unmanageable and frizzy -- I cannot do anything with it and can't wait until it grows out. The stylist -- the same one who did my color and cut the past two times -- obviously wasn't paying attention this time around or didn't know how to professionally execute my request. Also, a highlight and cut process that should have taken around two and a half hours took more than four because she overbooked clients and constantly stopped to talk about her personal life. For me, it was less expensive than what I paid in NYC, but I'd rather pay a premium for high quality work. The best advice I can give you is to do more research and find a better place. Please learn from my experience...I wish I had done so a lot sooner.

My husband and I have both had our hair cut at Steve Sobel, and we've both been happy with the results. Ivonne did a good job on my basic haircut, and more recently Rena cut about 6 inches off my hair and gave me a really nice bob. I went in with a basic idea of what I wanted and left the rest up to her. At first I was a little nervous because she seemed unsure, but the finished product was great! She took her time and didn't rush, which I appreciate. They were even able to see me on short notice - the same afternoon that I called for an appointment. This is a good salon if you have an idea of what you want but need some expert advice to be sure. My only complaint is the price - $50 for a haircut is certainly expensive, but I don't mind paying more for a drastic change executed well. The staff is fashionable but friendly, and I'll definitely be going back.

For years I have been going to Steven for haircuts and color. Steven is magnificent with color - I've done blonde, red, highlights, etc. He is also creative and stylish with haircuts. It always looks natural, wears well and gets compliments.

If you are looking for a new place - or are tired of that same old style - give Steven Sobel a try!

5 Stars: Fantastic hair salon on quiet Maple Street (by Joy D.)

I've been a client of Steven's for about five years now, and he gets my highest recommendation. Every time I go in, Steven and I talk about my job (an engineer) and how I want a haircut that is low maintenance enough to not get in the way of my busy day, but also cute and attractive enough to keep my femininity in an office full of men. He then goes to work, designing me a haircut that fits exactly what I want. We call it "sexy engineer hair" because it's easy and flattering on a daily basis, but with enough sass to be noticed when I'm going out. It is a different cut every time, but I'm always amazed by the number of compliments I receive and the great way the cut grows out.
I've noticed that others have commented on the price of this salon. SuperCuts, this is not. But, with the quality, the professionalism, and the attention given to each customer, it is absolutely worth it.
