5 Stars: Jessica the Hair Doctor (by Eric G)

Eric G — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I have been going to Jessica for six years. There are many people cutting hair out there, some in the quickie inexpensive places and others in elaborate expensive salons. She demonstrates not only a skill for working with hair, but possess an abundant knowledge which she intuitively uses when working with hair. The result is that Jessica is able to work with my hair to achieve an incredible hair cut of which I am proud. Thus, I call her the hair doctor.

5 Stars: Jessica-Great Hair Stylist (by Mollyollie)

Mollyollie — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I have had Jessica cut and style my hair for a few years now and have always been happy with the outcome. Even when the style grows out, the cut is so good that my hair is still manageable. I have recommended Jessica to many people, and will continue to do so. As for the salon, the Urban Gyspy staff have always been very friendly and quick to schedule me when I call.

5 Stars: Mary Ann Havens Rocks!!!! (by smogush)

smogush — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I've been going to Mary for awhile now and everytime I step out of the salon I'm even more thrilled than the last time!!! Sometimes I go in not knowing exactly what I want to do with my hair and tell her to try something new and it's perfection every time!!! She knows exactly what to do! When I started going to her, I had horrible, dry, course, brittle hair and now it's healthy, shiny, and looks great!!!! Mary and the staff at Urban Gpysy are great!!! I definitely recommend them to everyone!!!

5 Stars: Exactly What I Asked For... (by Laura Danielson)

Laura Danielson — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I decided to get a fairly drastic haircut and went to Urban Gypsy as a new client. I gave Mary Ann a photo and she cut my hair EXACTLY like it. It was perfect! I've been getting so many compliments!

5 Stars: Just love Jessica (by Barbara Boone)

Barbara Boone — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I have been with Jessica for over 8 years, if I am counting correctly. I have always received excellant treatment and a beautiful cut. She also colors my hair and I have received many compliments on the natural looking of the color.

5 Stars: Great Haircut (by jknott2009)

jknott2009 — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I recommend Jessica at urban bypsy. She is one person who actually listens to what you want and doesn't just cut your hair. I have been going to her for 5 years now and have always been happy.

5 Stars: Jessica (by tmoreau)

tmoreau — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I've been going to Jessica Hendricks for quite a few years now, and have NEVER left after cut, color, highlights or whatever I came for without being 100% satisfied. Jessica will listen to what you want done and will do just that--however in my case she is fantastic in guiding you if you are looking for suggestions.
Painless eyebrow waxing and shaping; and as close to painless as you can get for lip waxing!
Honestly, since my first cut with Jessica I've not been to anyone else-and couldn't imagine having to.
When Jessica moved to Urban Gypsy I was a bit concerned how the atmosphere would be, but no need for my worries; Urban Gypsy is a very relaxed comfortable atmosphere and I would recommend it to anyone!

5 Stars: haircut simple and speedy (by aeismith)

aeismith — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I had never been in the salon before, and I was able to somehow explain the type of hair cut that I did not want. Jessica did a great job interpreting the type of hair cut that i was looking for. The best thing about this cut, was that it was all very realistic. She didnt use a round brush--that i so impossible to use, or products that I dont already have. She had a realistic approach to the cut and style, and implemented it in a way, that I could copy once I got home. She used the most basic products, mousse, and hair spray. It was easy for me to come home and recreate the style. I will return, as Jessica was efficient and innovative as a stylist.

5 Stars: Cool Place for a Haircut! (by zfunk)

zfunk — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I heard about Urban Gypsy from a friend, so I checked it out. From experience, they recommended Jess Hendricks. Jess gave me just the cut I was looking for, and I've been back several times since then. Go see for yourself.

5 Stars: Great cut and color from Mary Ann (by jrezek)

jrezek — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 02:00:00 GMT

Mary Ann is saving me from a horrible cut and color (from another salon). She took the time to find out what I disliked and helped me create a plan to fix what another stylist did to my hair - without losing all my length. I also love that she'll tell me what products she's using in my hair, but doesn't give me a hard sell. I've already recommended her to my friends!

5 Stars: GREAT PLACE FOR CORRECTIVE COLOR - SEE MARY ANN!! (by MagdelenaMoore)

MagdelenaMoore — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 02:00:00 GMT

I moved to Indianapolis from Miami last year and first used the salon for bikini waxing. I was really impressed with the time they took and the fact that they DON'T recycle wax. Then, I had a HORRIBLE experience at another salon, where the owner bleached my hair and gave me a very unnatural and unattractive look. I came back to Urban Gypsy and had Mary Ann fix my hair. She took the time to discuss what was going to be done and double checked on the coloring. When she was finally finished and I saw the color, I was amazed. She had finally given me what I had initially wanted and it looked FABULOUS!!!!! She is a fantastic stylist and Cindy is a fantastic waxer! I highly recommend this salon. Coming from Miami to Indianapolis, I never thought I would find a salon that could compare to what I've known, but Urban Gypsy has proven to be somewhat even better than the salons I use to go to in Miami. I am so happy that I have found them! :)

5 Stars: Great Place - friendly attitude (by tom1228)

tom1228 — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 02:00:00 GMT

The owner made me feel at home, was very professional, on-time, quick and very good. I would recommend her and the Urban Gypsy to anyone.

5 Stars: Great for waxing (by axha3)

axha3 — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 02:00:00 GMT

Cindy did my waxing and did a fantastic job. The price was good, but the internet special made it even better. She was very skilled and used cold towels to make the process much less painful. She was very professional and I will certainly go again.

5 Stars: My Lucky Day (by JennyT)

JennyT — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 02:00:00 GMT

Arriving late afternoon for a meeting the next day, I checked into a downtown hotel hoping to get waxed before my big day.
I was struck by a gorgeous hotel employee and asked her where she goes.
It was Urban Gypsy in Broad Ripple Village.
I called, they were open late and got me in.
It was a professional,relaxed, comfortably hip atmosphere without the pretentiousness.
My skin felt wonderful and looked terrific.
My confidence level rose exponentially.
I'm going back to Indianapolis in 2 weeks and look forward to getting back to Urban Gypsy.
Owner Cindy Nagle has a great spokesmodel downtown, and a new client in me.

5 Stars: Bikini Waxing (by rachaelnas)

rachaelnas — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I had a wonderful experience at Urban Gypsy.I have been to other places in town that did not come close to how nice this was . The lady that worked with me used 2 different waxes because I have sensitive skin and it did really hurt like it has at other places. Try here before your spring break

I loved my time at the salon .I felt very at home .My facial started on time and it was wonderful .I felt there were extra little things that were done for me that I had never had in a facial before and it was a treat .Wonderful value for $65 dollars.WOW I WILL GO BACK AND SOON.

1 Stars: Horrendous Hair Disaster (by ChrisR89)

ChrisR89 — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 01:00:00 GMT

I am a college-age male with a very astute taste of what looks good, and I went to Urban Gypsy for the first time. Due to its artsy location in Broad Ripple, I went in with high hopes, and left extremely disappointed to the point of almost being angry. I had spent my entire first semester growing out my hair from a very short hair cut, and the length was finally right. I showed a picture to the stylist of how I had gotten it cut back home (in rural southern Indiana) just before Thanksgiving. I wanted to return to that length because lately it had gotten unruly. After several sizable chunks of hair fell to the floor, I knew something was wrong. By the end of my haircut, I had lost all of the length I had spent all of the semester growing, and the top remained untouched by her scissors. The damage had far surpassed what could be salvaged, so I left with bitter taste in my mouth. Being from southern Indiana, I had never spent so much on a haircut. Not only did I feel it was overpriced, I also believe it was the worst haircut I've ever received in my life. I have been cutting my own hair to fix the new surprise damages that seem to pop up daily. It is looking better, but the French poodle 'do I received at Urban Gypsy is still noticeable. Needless to say I will not be going back, and I am starting the process of growing my hair out...yet again. I warn you if you are male--stay away!!

5 Stars: I Feel Great (by KittyDel)

KittyDel — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 01:00:00 GMT

I already go to this salon for facials and waxing but this month I decided to try them for color after my regular stylist at a big name salon messed my color up.I worked with Jenn and she made me look great .She is very colorful and lots of fun and a PROFESSIONAL. I found Urban Gypsy on Citysearch.Thank you for letting all the reviews go public so people can make an informed choice.

5 Stars: Great Color & Cut (by SandraTe)

SandraTe — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 01:00:00 GMT

I moved to Indianapolis a month ago and have driven by this salon. I called and was able to get in within 2 days. I got the best color and cut I have ever had. Jen is great ! My color still looks fresh.

5 Stars: AWESOME!!! (by linz7997)

linz7997 — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 01:00:00 GMT

I HATE getting my hair cut...which is why I dont. Or...I just get a trim. But I was sick of having the same hair style since Jr High so I came on here looking for a stylist that could do curly hair. I found Leah...OH MY GOSH!!! I finally have a stylist that I can go to over and over and over. My hair has a style for the first time EVER! She gave me great tips for products and techniques that I can't wait to try out!!! I honestly...have never been happy with a cut until now. Thanks!!! See you in 8 wks!!!

5 Stars: The Salon You've Been Looking For (by anonymous86)

anonymous86 — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 01:00:00 GMT

I have been to a different salon almost every time I have had my hair cut, looking for the perfect cut. I found it, at Urban Gypsy. The staff was friendly and helpful, I got an appointment quickly and didn't have to wait after arriving. I got the best haircut I have ever had and the stylist even explained exactly how she styled it. Also, they did not push products on me, as they have at several other salons. I look forward to returning!

1 Stars: NOT A GOOD PLACE FOR MEN'S CUTS (by Philiph)

Philiph — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I would not recommend this establishment for men seeking a haircut. I think most of us are very hesitant to try new places, particularly when it comes to our hair, but I decided to give Urban Gypsy a shot since I was new to town. Many of the online reviews were positive, and for $35 a clip, I assumed this was the place to go. Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience overall. First, I made an appointment for the earliest time available and my stylist ended up arriving 10 minutes late. After finally getting started, I gave what I thought were very helpful, explicit directions as to what I was looking for in a haircut. Having slightly longer hair, I'm pretty particular with how it's trimmed. What ended up happening was the stylist cutting it WAY shorter than I was wanting it. To top it off, at the end of the appointment, she said: "You know, I actually liked your hair longer." Wow, insulting the client's terrible haircut that YOU gave him. That truly beats all.

What would have been the point of getting upset? It's not like she would've cared or been able to do anything about taking way too much hair off. The lack of professionalism (showing up late because she said she's not a morning person) and an overpriced, bad haircut left an obviously sour taste in my mouth. It may be an excellent place for women, but guys should steer clear. I'm headed back to Great Clips on Michigan Rd.

5 Stars: Fabulous! A Hidden Treasure! (by lil_d_loc)

lil_d_loc — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I visit Urban Gypsy from out of town, and my stylist is Ms. Erin. She is fabulous! I have found a new love for my hair, and my self-confidence has skyrocketed because everyone (even strangers) compliments me on the color and style. I get several different colors of highlights, and Ms. Erin is a perfectionist when it comes to color! My hair looks natural, is shiny and glossy, and the cut is very flattering.

The rest of the staff at Urban Gypsy is very friendly. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. I will definately be returning to Urban Gypsy.

5 Stars: Nice Experience (by ginayestrovic)

ginayestrovic — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 02:00:00 GMT

A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO I WENT TO THIS SALON FOR WAXING AND HAD A NICE EXPERIENCE. A LADY WORKE.D WITH ME THAT WAS VERY PATIENT AND DID A GREAT JOB. SHE ALSO GAVE ME GOOD IDEAS ON HOW TO AVOID INEGROWN HAIRS. I RECOMMEND THEM . I MAY TRY THEM FOR HAIR COLOR NEXT TIME.

1 Stars: Awful (by teg08)

teg08 — Sat, 24 May 2008 02:00:00 GMT

My experience at Urban Gypsy was terrible. I made an appointment a couple of weeks ago for a special that included a cut, full coloring, highlights/lowlights, and a brow wax. On the day of my appointment, I was on time but my stylist wasn't. I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted my hair color to be (blonder than what I was, all-over color to cover up my roots, natural-looking highlights/lowlights) and told her explicitly that I DID NOT want to take much length off my hair, that all I wanted was a trim and a few layers to make my hair look full and healthy. However, she didn't end up doing anything that I asked for. First she told me she wouldn't fully color my hair (even though I had noticeable brown roots and was aiming for bright blonde) because it would be lower maintenance to just do highlights/lowlights every so often. Although she chose nice shades, her work overall was pretty bad, not at all thorough. (From where the dye starts in some places you can see that the foil was positioned about .5-1 inch away from the scalp. I know that it is difficult to get really close to the scalp when doing high/lowlights but she REALLY missed the mark. Plus, highlights/lowlights do not mask roots as well as she had me believe) After she finished dying my hair she gave me the worst hair cut I?ve ever had. She only took about 10 minutes to do it, cut inches off (even though I specifically said I did not want to take off any length because I want to grow my hair out), and made blunt cuts. I was in a hurry so I didn?t have her dry my hair which turned out to be a HUGE mistake because when I got home and dried it I realized that it was incredibly uneven. The left side was significantly longer than the right and both sides were jagged. Chucks had been left uncut! Also, even though I only received highlights/lowlights and a cut (she denied me a full coloring and I opted out of the brow waxing) I still paid the same price as the special+tip! Ridiculous. Don't go.

3 Stars: A mixed bag (by Darkbloom)

Darkbloom — Fri, 16 May 2008 02:00:00 GMT

My experience with Urban Gypsy was a mixed bag. The staff was friendly and professional, the environment was attractive and welcoming and the price was reasonable. But I didn't get what a I really wanted: a great haircut.

I have long-ish wavy hair that hadn't been cut in some months and I needed my layers freshened up and my bangs shaped. I was assigned a stylist who has an expertise in curly hair, which I was delighted about because I've been trying to embrace the wave for the past couple of years instead of fighting it. She did a fine job of trimming my layers, but barely clipped anything from my bangs, which were on the cusp of getting quite unruly. She told me to come back if we needed to cut the bangs more aggressively. In a few days it was obvious that we did because my hair started to look pretty '80s (which is NOT a look i'm embracing right now). When I returned a week or so later for a fix she used a straight iron before working on my bangs. WHY O WHY would any stylist do this? Especially for someone with wavy or curly hair! Obviously my hair is not going to look the same when I try to do it myself at home without a straightening iron. I mentioned that I didn't have one and the response I got was: "They're not that expensive."

For my work I am out and about and I deal a lot with people so I want to look halfway decent, but I also don't care to be high maintenance or need a straightening iron in my bag if I get caught in the rain. In any case, it was no surprise that my hair started to have an even more pronounced '80s look two days after Round 2. The day before I went to Urban Gypsy I had my picture taken for a work ID and, honestly, my hair looked better before I got it cut.

5 Stars: Erin Kruse - Naturally Talented (by JayneBenn)

JayneBenn — Mon, 12 May 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I moved to Indianapolis from Chicago last November and began my search for the right stylist for me at that time. After several unsuccessful visits to salons all over the city, I found Urban Gypsy. When I called for my first appointment and was asked what I was seeking, I was told that Erin would be "my girl". From the moment I sat down in her chair, I was impressed. She is very personable - you feel like you've known her forever - and she has a very clear vision of exactly what it is you are looking to do. Each and every time I've been to her, I come out happy and quite satisfied with my hair cut. The price is right as well and you know it's good when random people tell you how great your hair looks and ask who cuts it! Erin rocks ... she has a God-given gift with hair design. I will continue to go to her and recommend her to others as well. See you soon, Erin!

5 Stars: Erin Kruse is an awesome hair stylist! (by jmu05)

jmu05 — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I have just moved to Indy from the east coast and was a bit nervous about finding a new hair dresser I trusted. I went to Urban Gypsy this week and had a wonderful experience! Erin Kruse was my stylist and I was at ease as soon as I met her! Not only did I get the best cut I have ever had - she was really great about telling me each step of the process while cutting and styling my hair so I always knew what she was doing and why. It made me feel really comfortable. The salon is cute and has a great atmosphere and Erin is by far a rockstar hairdresser! Call and ask for her you will be glad you did!

5 Stars: Leave here looking and feeling like a superstar! (by lboogie30)

lboogie30 — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I have been going to Urban Gypsy for about a year and 1/2 and absolutely love it! My stylist, Erin Kruse, makes me feel right and home and makes my hair look fabulous. I've done everything from hilites and lolites to all over color and have been 100% happy everytime. She is so intuitive and really picks up on what look I'm going for. She also takes the time to make sure that I'll be able to do my hair once I get home...a big plus that many salons overlook! She also will explain what products will work best on your hair, and Urban Gypsy has a great selection to choose from. The entire staff is really friendly and visiting Urban Gyspy seems like a fun afternoon with your girlfriends! I recommend Urban Gyspy to my friends and family and won't let anyone but Erin touch my hair. Another bonus is the fun eclectic decor of the salon. Check it out-you won't be disappointed!

5 Stars: Hannah saved my hair and my birthday!!! (by jenharrison)

jenharrison — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 01:00:00 GMT

Unfortunately the Aveda Fredric's Institute in the Castleton Mall ruined my hair color the day before my birthday. When I showed people what they did to my hair they couldn't help but laugh...I had zebra stripes on my head...it was absolutely horrible. The next day was my 27th birthday and I did not want to go out looking horrible...I knew someone had to fix it...and I knew this person had to be really good. Hannah got me in at 11am on the day of my birthday ...she fixed the color of my hair...which we all know is not easy to do. Not only did she fix it, but I got compliments on my hair all evening long. Hannah saved my hair and my birthday.....THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I love my hair now!!!

5 Stars: Awesome! (by ehowell123)

ehowell123 — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 01:00:00 GMT

I took a leap of faith and randomly chose a hair salon based on the reviews that I read on this website! I had very long unstyled hair until yesterday when I spontaneously decided to get it cut. I live in AZ so I didn't know where to go. Let me tell you the people I spoke to on the phone were so friendly and asked me questions to see how I wanted to get my hair cut. They made me feel like I was in good hands. I had Erin to cut and style my hair. She was truly awesome. She cut it exactly like I described and I didn't even freak out. I would recommend this hair salon to anyone. They did an excellent job on my hair and I am a tough critic. A +++++

5 Stars: Love Urban Gypsy - Very satisfied every time I've been there. (by tinatom)

tinatom — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 01:00:00 GMT

I've been there 3 or 4 times, at least. I love their salon so much, I recommend it to people all of the time. I have only used 1 stylist. Her name is Erin Kruse. She's young, hip and quite the artist. She is awesome at what she does. Everything from updo's, color, highlights, color repair, cuts. She has done all of these processes for my daughter and/or I. My daughter has very thick curley hair. Hard to cut. And I have just the opposite, very fine , straight hair. Also very hard to do much with. And Erin cuts both our hair. I would highly recommend her for anything you need done. The best thing about her is that she really listens to what you want, instead of doing what she wants. As I have experienced with other stylists.

2 Stars: dissapointed :( (by emily1151)

emily1151 — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 02:00:00 GMT

I was really excited to get to my appointment for a waxing. They were very professional on the phone, and very helpful. THe woman who helped me was VERY nice, and I feel bad for writting a bad review, but I honestly was not very happy. My "waxer" was very young, maybe she was new at it. I've heard many times you arent supposed to wax over the same spot more than once, and she tried many times. I was left with wax ALL over, and still a LOT of hair. It's basically like i wasn't waxed. I'm really dissapointed. I'm sure it's great to get hair done, and I might give it a second shot if i have someone else.

5 Stars: Wonderful Experience (by freedanixon)

freedanixon — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 02:00:00 GMT

I had an appointment at this salon this week. It was so nice to have a stylist take time to work with me. The
products she used were Abba. I love them and my hair is so easy to work with in the morning. I have had several people ask what was different about me, I looked so nice I think it was the natural high lights she put in my hair. I am so happy.

5 Stars: Try Erin For Curly Hair (by dny28)

dny28 — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 02:00:00 GMT

I found Urban Gypsy Salon on curly hair website .They have 2 stylist that are fantastic with curly hair .A lot of people say they can cut curly hair but that is not always the truth. I tried Erin and they were right she is GREAT !!. She took the time to go over my history and what I was looking for as far as styling my hair. It is so easy now to take care of. I took home some products that she recommended for my kind of a hair and they are perfect.
Thank You Erin

I went to Urban Gypsy last week and got a great high light on a promo with my hair cut and it looks hot
I live in the village and I was tired of driving to Carmel and paying way to much .Give this place a try.

1 Stars: Awful! (by grayer)

grayer — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 02:00:00 GMT

Are the people writing the reviews for this salon employees of Urban Gypsy, or family members of somebody that works there? This salon is terrible! The inside of the salon is a cluttered mess! A couple of the stylists have outdated feathered hair! The stylist that colored my hair put one strip of color right down the middle of my head!

5 Stars: Props to LEAH!!!! (by sjk10)

sjk10 — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 02:00:00 GMT

I was nervous for my first haircut at Urban Gypsy because my first haircut in Indy hadn't turned out well at all. It was awful. I decided to try Urban Gypsy after going there with a friend so I called and scheduled an appointment with Leah. Leah really took her time listening to what I wanted and how I wasn't happy with the last stylist who cut my hair because she didn't listen. Leah understood exactly what I was looking for and took time to explain how she would cut my hair and exactly how to style it so it would turn out similar to how she styled it, because you can't ever get your hair to look exactly as it does when you leave the salon:). Since my hair cut, I've been able to style in half the time than before and it's so easy to manage. I

I appreciate Leah's patience and skills. She a fantastic stylist and I would and will certainly recommend her to friends and family. She's simply the BEST!!!! Thanks Leah!!!!

My hair looks outstanding! I called that day, and Erin was able to get me in. I was nervous at first because I am new to Indy, and didn't know where to go. She made me feel so comfortable, and gave me exactly what I wanted! Plus, I told her that, I always have trouble styling my hair, and can't get it to look the way that the professionals do, she took a few extra minutes, giving me pointers and explained the style in simple steps. It's been a few weeks and every day my hair has looked great.

Found them on naturalcurly.on the web. From the first phone call every one was so nice and friendly, something you dont always see here in Indy. Leah did a wonderful job on the color and cut. My color was a big ol' mess from going to other "Top Salons" here in the area and it's the best it has looked in awhile. She re-shaped it and took the time to give me pointers on fixing it.
Anybody not just curly heads should give Leah a try!

5 Stars: Great Hair from this salon !! (by sher31)

I enjoyed my visit to Urban Gypsy in Broad Ripple. It was great to find out that they had their own parking. When I go to the village it can be a problem if a business is on the main drag but I parked steps away from the door. I got the best hair cut and they run specials for new clients on color if you add a cut. I had my hair high lighted for the first time and it is beautiful.I am going back in 6 weeks and I bought some great earrings too.

I had a great experience had my hair cut and colored by Andi Dickover and was very pleased. She listened to me and gave me her thoughts on the color and I went with what she thought I should do. It turned out fabulous !!!!!!!

2 Stars: Waste of time (by mcneal40)

mcneal40 — Fri, 12 Jan 2007 01:00:00 GMT

I was told not to go Urban Gyspy last year from a friend of mine for her own reasons, but gave it a chance anyways. Like many of these reviews it started out nice of the phone and in the introductions, but my stylist had no clue what she was doing. She had to ask questions on how she was cutting my layers to the woman at the front desk and if my color was done right. I understand when your in training, but no one explained to me that I was going to be a guinea pig that day in that salon. She had me facing away from the mirror majority of the time as she styled for whatever reason and didn't turn me around til I asked 1/2 way through. I don't know if it was to save herself from me seeing the damage or if that was her technique. But in the several years I've had my hair styled I've never felt so nervous and to see the end result, it wasn't pretty. It was nothing like what I told her I wanted, not even close. I guess, I should have listened to my friend.

5 Stars: Nice New Place (by janejinx)

I recently moved from the west coast to Indianapolis's Broad Ripple Village area.I was looking for a new salon and found Urban gypsy on Citysearch. I went for my first appointment over the holidays . They have specials on the website so it's a great way to try a new place. I got a great cut for an amazing price. I'm going back for color next time.

1 Stars: never again (by feath)

feath — Sat, 30 Dec 2006 01:00:00 GMT

I had never been there, but heard mix reviews from people who actually went there not employees writing reviews. The people at first seemed nice on the phone, but my hair stylist didn't listen to anything I said about my hair. It seemed she thought she knew better. I politely was explaining to her about how my hair lays when certain treatment is done to it and she ignored me and started to talking to someone else while I was in her chair. She seemed to have an " I don't care" attitude. This was my first time there and it will be my last.

5 Stars: Great color & the best pedicure ever (by lindasdream)

lindasdream — Wed, 13 Dec 2006 01:00:00 GMT

I had the best time at this salon !! Everyone was friendly and took great care of me. My hair has never looked better. My stylist Mary did an amazing job on my color. I decided at the last minute to get a pedicure with the nail tech at Urban Gypsy. Her name was Tonya and they said she was very difficult to get an appointment with so I guess I was lucky. She gave me the best pedicure I have ever had. I have already booked my next 2 appointments. I also bought some gift certificates to give to my best friend and my mom.

5 Stars: Best Kept Secret in Indy (by lfederspill)

lfederspill — Mon, 30 Oct 2006 01:00:00 GMT

I hadn't had my hair cut for over three years before coming to Urban Gypsy. I was really nervous because every other salon I have been to butchered my hair. But when I stepped in the door I instantly felt comfortable and not so scared to get my hair cut! Erin greeted me with a warm smile and took down my information very kindly. The whole staff is so pretty and very nice. Mary Ann cut my hair and did a wonderful job. She even showed me some quick styling tips. Everyone was so sweet and nice! I love you girls! Thanks for a great experiance!

5 Stars: Great Service From Gypsy Erin !! (by 1junemoon)

1junemoon — Sun, 15 Oct 2006 02:00:00 GMT

I went to Urban Gypsy after reading about it on Citysearch . What a nice group of professionals and relaxing surroundings. Erin worked with me and did a wonderful job. She corrected a color job that a very expensive salon on the north side of Indy had botched. I payed that salon over $200 and they would not fix it. Erin at Urban Gypsy took the time to ask me all the right questions and did exactly what should have been done at the first salon. Call her she is great. Urban Gypsy even let me use a internet special they had going to help off set the cost and gave me a free brow wax for being a new customer. I have already booked my appointments through the holidays. Love you guys.

5 Stars: A Wonderful Salon / For All Needs (by sjkinder)

I have been a customer at Urban Gypsy for more than 4 consecutive years. Hannah, Leah, and MaryAnn are all wonderfully talented stylists. The atmosphere is comforting and the cuts are top-of-the-line. All of the stylists are well trained...and will provide realistic expectations regarding cuts, styles and color.

1 Stars: Unprofessional (by remy06)

I had set up 5 hair appts for my wedding day and went in to have a trial run less than a month before my wedding. It was not the best style (which I was going to let pass), I felt rushed towards the end because her next appt. was walking back in forth in front of us, and they didn't even do my "scheduled" trial run for my makeup. So nevertheless I left unsatisfied. I then decided to look elsewhere in case the 2nd trial run they offered didn't go well either. I did find someone else to do my hair, but was going to keep my bridesmaids (4) appts. still there. When I called to take my name off the list for the big day, I was told that was fine. Two minutes later the owner called me personally and said " I don't think we can help you anymore". So basically she didn't think my other 4 girls and my makeup for the wedding was good enough, because I decided to go with someone else on my hair. I was shocked and upset that the OWNER of a business would actually call me a few weeks before my wedding and say that they couldn't help me anymore. We never had a contract and she from day one said if I needed to take a person off of the schedule, then it wouldn't be a problem. But apparently that wasn't the case. It was just bad business overall, but maybe I should have realized that after the first trial day. I work in bridal retail and see a lot of brides, bridesmaids, mothers, friends, ect. all looking for a nice place to go for there hair and always asking us where to go. :) They seem nice at first, but watch out.

5 Stars: Reasonable price (by Gayathri S.)

Each and every time I walk into Urban Gypsy Hair Salon, I feel like I walked into a friends house. The owner always cuts my hair. She is so nice and so friendly. She remembers each and every clients name and even their life story. I find that very very amazing. Even my friends used to go there after I told my experience.The price is also resaonable. I like the interior decoration of the Salon and it is so good. Just a neighorhood shop for the every day people.

Urban Gypsy has it all!The stylist and the nail techs are truely talented.I have never been to a salon were I didn't have to refix my hair style after it was done.The nail techs specialize in the pink and white look and when I leave I don't have to worry about my polish getting messed up because they buff it to a high gloss shine.The whole staff treats you as if they known you forever.It is truely a pleasure going there.

Urban Gypsy, is a very up to date salon. They have the nicest people at the front desk, Cindy is fun! The stylists are very genuine, and know how to do hair. They are caring and very educated. I have had the best pedicures at UG. The nail tech is very gentle, and my polish last for 4-6 weeks. It's great. They are a full service with a great boutique as well. I go every year to but my Christmas gifts. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! I have been to many salons, non compare to Urban Gypsy.

5 Stars: Big Salon Feel for a Reasonable Price (by Erica B.)

Erica B. — Fri, 15 Jul 2005 09:43:00 GMT

Located in Broodripple, this salon captures the essence of a big city salon; however, unlike big city salons, prices here are reasonable and affordable. While waiting one is able to enjoy a beverage and admire or purchase the salon's wonderful clothing, jewelry and beauty products. Stylists are friendly, upbeat and personable and have the training needed to make one feel safe under the scissor( or wax, nail polish, razor, etc). This salon is the place to go for a fun, hip hairstyle at a price that still allows you to go out and show off your new do!
