5 Stars: Best Hair Salon in Dallas! (by Judnyse)

Judnyse — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I have been going to Ginos for about 4 years now. I live in fort worth, so its not always convenient. I went somewhere else a couple of months ago and they messed my hair up so bad, but Gino fixed it! Thank you Gino! He works miracles & is truley the best!

5 Stars: Gino was CREATED for High Maintenance Dallas Hair! (by krislove)

krislove — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

After 17 years as a Dallas Blonde, I have finally committed to Gino, proudly leaving behind the lifestyle of hair whore! Gino really is a FABULOUS MAN with an AMAZING TALENT coupled with a HUGE HEART. I am of the pickiest when it comes to hair (a.k.a. every hairdresser's nightmare!) but I have never left Gino's with a single complaint about my hair or experience. I wish I had discovered him YEARS ago! Glad I disregarded the negative reviews knowing anyone can post anything and the competition must hate him (along with WACKED disgruntled ex-employees)! He must be doing something right to be at the TOP of CitySearch!

5 Stars: Look like my BF! (by Bernice M Collins)

Bernice M Collins — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I went with my friend, last weekend, to Gino's and we really liked him! He did the most beautiful haircut on my friend. She looked like a model afterwards...She's pretty, but her hair is always fuzzy, it's always all over the place. He did like this deep treatment on her hair. Then, he did that steamer thing to straighten it...then he cut it like sideways, really delicately.

She was so pretty! It was black and shinny and just so pretty...I was a bit jealous :)

Then, she wanted bangs, but he said no. He showed her why....he was right, she looked pretty with the long layers around her face.

Ok, so, now its my turn...I want it just like her!

I'm going this Saturday! I'm excited! But I'm getting some highlights, as well. Can't wait!

5 Stars: Gino is the Best! (I'll do the drive, for my hair!) (by Brooke Leigh Sanford)

Brooke Leigh Sanford — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I have lived in Plano/Frisco for almost 10years....until 10 months ago. Me and my boyfriend moved to Downtown Dallas, because our jobs are in Downtown (and we just got tired of being stuck in traffic every day for 45min-an hour...plus the gas was so expensive back then to travel back and forth every day, AND TOLL FEES! It's like we had to pay to go home )....So we moved. We now live 5 mins from our jobs. We love it! BUT, every month. I will drive up to Gino's Salon, because I just LOVE the way he does my hair! I just love him. I can't explain it. Like i hate it when people say, OMG he's the best! But I am not exagerrating or sounding fake. He really is the Best! I met Gino by accident, actually...back in 2001. My hairdresser was out on summer vacation...So I booked myself with Gino. And I am so Glad I did! I fell in love with his professionalism, his skills, the way he knows what color, cut, or styles look best on me. You can see his PASSION for hair. He really does love doing hair. It's not just a "job" or just a haircut, or another head to add color to. He really does cares. That is why, even after my previous stylist came back from her vacation...I never went back...I always went back to Gino. He's really funny too...He'll talk to me in Italian and I'm like "What?" :) He really is a nice gentleman....And when you walk into his salon, you will see that he is living an American Dream. He's from Italy and he's opened his own business in America..The only reason i know his background is because i read it in the "ALLURE MAGAZINE" Issue...He was named the Best Colorist in Dallas! So it's not just me who knows Gino is the Best! :)

5 Stars: Great salon (by sofia mo mo)

I have been to Gino's Salon many times and always walk away happy. Gino is very professional, efficient, and charming. His knowledge and skill are evident in the great haircut I receive every time!

5 Stars: Simply the Best (by planononna)

planononna — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

From the moment I enter Gino Salon until I leave, I feel very special. I am showered with attention from Gino and staff. Every 3 to 4 weeks I visit Gino for the best cut and color with highlights I have come to expect. Having been a client for 15 years, I don't even tell Gino how to do my 'do'. I trust him that much and am never disappointed.

The added bonus after a trip to Gino's is that I always feel great. Not only does he 'lift' my hair but also my spirits. He is a good man and and a true professional in his field.

I recommend him highly.

1 Stars: Simply The Worst........... (by sassyfashionista)

sassyfashionista — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

This guy is a joke. I pulled up to s shopping center where he was located. The salon was below average at best. It was dead inside. He was not nice during his introduction. When I was explaining what I wanted which was blond highlights he wasn't listening, he argued with me and was very synical. He wanted to make me darker allover instead!?!?!?! I disagreed then I made him pull out the color swatches to SHOW him what I wanted so there was no misunderstanding. I agreed to a light brown lowlight and very blond highlights. When the 4 Hour process was finally over, my hair was brown with NO blond highlights?!? He put a toner allover it that washed all of the blond out of my hair. I have pictures before and after. My haircolor was orangy/brown and spotted!! I had bad vibes about the location, condition of the salon, and his professionalism or lack thereof to begin with. I wish I had just left. I also noticed all of the women in there getting there hair done (which was all of three people) were older and had dark brown hair. Not a good sign. This place is not for BLONDES!!! I argued with him the next day and he gave me a partial refund which was, again, unprofessional. He wasted 4 hours of my time plus 45 minutes of drive time to the salon and I had to pay someone the next day to fix it. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!

1 Stars: Ok not too great (by LindaGirl)

LindaGirl — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 09:00:00 GMT

This place is overrated. I walked into a dead salon. Pictures are so deceptive. Then came Gino. He hardly spoke to me just kept nodding his head muttering to himself and eventually did whatever he wanted to do and not what I asked for. His assistants are friendly and nice. Gino did a good job with the cut but the highlights he gave me "NONE". I walked out with no color and payed a fortune for just a cut without color. Very upset with the coloring. You may be an expert as you claim but once in a while it won't hurt to give clients what they ask for. Ultimately 100% customer satisfaction is what matters not your own satisfaction.

5 Stars: Great Cut! (by ac011000)

ac011000 — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 09:00:00 GMT

Gino gives a fantastic haircut. He's cut my hair several times, and I've never been disappointed. It always looks great! The staff is very efficient and friendly, and the salon is in a convenient location.

5 Stars: My Hairstylist of Ten Years...Gino Is Amazing! (by TMK7)

TMK7 — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I believe the biggest compliment a hairstylist can receive is referrels...everywhere I go folks are asking me who is your stylist your hair is fabulous. I don't take any credit for that it truly is the gifts and talents of Gino. I have known Gino now for 10 years and have followed him when he relocated each time before owning his own salon. I travel 45 mins to an hour each time I get my hair done and it is worth it.

Gino KNOWS color as well as style...he also understands the chemistry of hair therefore treats my hair with conditioners that leave my hair feeling silky soft! Gino is very pleasant to talk with...I really look forward to my time in the salon. Gino's assistant Abby is wonderful as well! She is energetic and always asks about my family in detail. I enjoy my conversations with her every time I am in the chair.

I recommend Gino to anyone who likes to go get their hair done without the anxiety of how it will turn out ; you will look fabulous everytime! When I come home my little guys always whistle and say mommy you look so pretty. My husband loves the money I spend at Gino's salon because of the results and considers Gino to be a great guy!

Go see Gino, you wont regret it, I promise!

5 Stars: This guy is amazing !!! (by tiolazz)

tiolazz — Sat, 17 Jan 2009 09:00:00 GMT

I couldn't believe when after the wonderful job that Gino does on my hair, I read a critic saying it was the worst salon in Dallas. Well Ladies, let me tell you, that person was smoking somthing funny !!!
Gino is the best colorist I have ever been to, and his cuts make me feel like a hundred dollars.
His staff is awesome , especially Abbie.... she is so bubbly and helpful and so nice just to be around, (plus she gives the best head massages when she washes your hair).... You can't help but love her.

Gino has been doing my hair for years, and I am very touchy about my hair color and style. He has even refused to cut my hair in a style that I liked because he told me that i would hate it, and i am sure that he would have been right.

you just can't find a better stylist or colorist in this town, so please don't pay any attention to the ramblings of some person who obviously had someone leak on her wheaties that day. Maybe they didn't kiss her behind or something, I don't know, but she is full of it....

This salon rocks and so do the personnel.... Be sure and try it, you will never let anyone do your hair again.

1 Stars: Terrible service, bad haircut & Color (by Emmiemommy)

Emmiemommy — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 09:00:00 GMT

So I tried Ginos salon after finding a coupon for it. I told the recept on the phone i wanted cut and color and highlight was scheduled for all of it 2 weeks in advance. Upon arriving not only did I have to wait in a dead salon for almost 20 min my stylist was rude. I decided to push on not only was I told "I dont have time for your color so were just doing highlights" I was also told when I asked if the 5 pictures of MYSELF from a previous colorist could be matched "Im only a man I cant work miracles but I will try". My overall experience of Ginos was terrible. From the rude, rushed feelings I got from my stylist and rude comments to the fact that the "highlights" I chose were chunky, 3 diff colors I didnt even choose and the cut was at best a butcher.

When I told him I wanted a base color of brown and highlights on top because thats what I was scheduled for I was told again "I have other clients and no time" so then he proceeded to highlight my hair the dark brown color I chose for the "base" color. I didnt see the full effect until I washed it. My highlights were only on the front section of my hair.

I rescheduled for the following Saturday and once I arrived on that Saturday Gino himself told me "your stylist doesnt want to deal with you or your hair" I told him I wasnt even difficult I even talked to my stylist about his family in an attempt to get him to talk to me at all...then I was offered a refund...which i took.
Bottom line Ginos is not classy, the stylist are 3rd rate, and even though there featured in Allure it seems it was just a general review someone must have paid to get in there....dont go you will be dissapointed in the shopping center vibe anyway.

5 Stars: I couldn't ask for better! (by momslave)

momslave — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 09:00:00 GMT

Being newer to Dallas, I've tried for quite some time to find a superb stylist. I don't have to look any further! This was my first time at Gino Salon, and I couldn't have left happier. The services were fairly priced, and I didn't feel in the least bit rushed. It was as if I was the only person there! Carlos is an exceptional stylist, but more importantly, an exceptional person. He is kind and passionate in what he does, and I left feeling better than I have felt in as long as I can remember. I especially appreciated the time he took in explaining and showing me what he thought would work best for me. The cut is fabulous and versatile. My previous color was uneven and just blah, and my new color and highlights make me feel and look so much better! The final critique? My young boys told me, "Mommy, you look different. You look so pretty!" Kids are honest! :-) Who could ask for more? I'll be looking forward to my next appointment and my time at the salon with Carlos. Thanks again!

1 Stars: THE WORST HAIR DRESSER I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO. (by Voguex17)

Voguex17 — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 09:00:00 GMT

HE CHOPPED MY HAIR ALMOST 5 INCHES OFF EVEN THOUGH I ASKED HIM NOTTTT TO TOUCH MY LENGTH.. HE CHOPPED IT OFF AND ONE SIDE WAS LONGER THAN THE OTHER..AND ON TOP OF THAT MY ENDS WERE STRINGY AND IN DIFFERENT LENGTHS. HE WORKED ON MY HAIR WHILE HE CLAIMED HE WAS COMING DOWN WITH THE FLU, DIDNT EVEN CARE IF HE GOT OTHERS SICK ESP HIS CUSTOMERS. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE EVER!! I CANNOT BELIEVE PEOPLE EVEN RAVE ABOUT THIS PLACE.

5 Stars: Excellent Hair cut, color and service! (by JSal246)

JSal246 — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I have been a hair dresser for over 20 years. Upon relocating here to Dallas, I needed to find someone I could trust, whom would give me a great color and hair cut. Gino gave me an excellent hair color, it looks so natural and pretty, not to mention healthy looking. He is a master at his work, his technical skills are steller. I would highly recommend Gino because he has the expertise and knowledge to give the client beautiful hair. You can relax in the chair and know that you are in good hands, because you can trust that he will make you look great. The staff was so friendly and nice, you just feel right at home immediately.
You just can't go wrong trying this place. For sure I will be back again and again.
Thank you Gino!

5 Stars: a pleasant surprise (by blonde1974)

blonde1974 — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I called and found out that my former stylist, Sharon, was no longer working at Gino Salon. I was in a bind and the assistant worked hard to get through to Carlos (the new stylist) and get me in. She was very pleasant and called back within minutes. She is also a great shampooer & well on her way to being a wonderful stylist herself! Carlos was kind and gracious, but very nervous about not lowlighting my ultra-blonde hair. We talked about depth & dimension and al the blonde buzz words, and I finally told him point blank that I don't want that, I just want BLONDE. I want pale, light, non-brassy, no-low-light, blonde. He was hesitant about my request and asked if he could do it "his way". I said okay. I was nervous and WOW~!!! He did a great job. No lowlights and still dimensional pale blonde. My hair looks great and everyone is commenting on it. I will be back to see him for sure. Be warned, Carlos takes his job seriously and comes across forward at first. Once you break him in his a a joy to be around and will give you exactly what you are looking for. If you are looking for a new stylist, I recomend Carlos (or Gino) with flying colors!!! The prices are high, but they take their time & I think the extra money is worth it!! Good luck!!!

5 Stars: Master Stylist (by SaraMegan)

SaraMegan — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 09:00:00 GMT

My stylist moved and I was in a panic to replace him. After trying another stylist with horrible results, I was even more nervous. Found Gino on City Search and he far exceeded my expectations. My cut is perfect, stylish and easy to manage. He knew exactly what to do with my fine, limp hair. I left the salon feeling like a million bucks and with my next appointment in hand. My search is over and I couldn't be happier with the results. Gino is an artist who takes his work seriously and it shows. His staff is courteous, fun and very attentive. The salon is contemporary and clean. It was a great experience!

5 Stars: feeling so good (by garciaanamaria)

I just moved to the area and wanted to try a new salon. I left today feeling like a new person. I love my haircut and was really pleased with the sevice that I received from Carlos. He really took care of my crazy curly hair. I will be back!!!!

5 Stars: Great experience (by melusinchen)

melusinchen — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I am very particular when it comes to my hair and ever since moving to the U.S. over a decade ago I have had more than my share of horrible haircut experiences that sometimes left me in tears.

Not this time! I came to Gino Salon because I read the positive reviews on Citysearch and am VERY happy with my color and cut. My previous stylist was never able to give me a precise haircut (I have short hair) and the mileage I got from those cuts was about 10 days. After that it began looking completely out of shape, giving me "helmet or broom head". My philosophy has always been that with a great cut, I won't have to go back to my stylist too, too soon. And I think I got what I wanted this time!

Gino's approach seemed effortless with both color and cut. An anxious moment came when at the end he whipped out brush and dryer, because usually I do not use either. Having somewhat curly hair, I normally just scrunch my hair with a bit of product and that's it. But oh, what a pleasant surprise - I actually looked quite cool and not like a boring, middle-aged housewife, which is what that brush/dryer approach usually does to me.

I left the salon with great color, shiny, healthy-looking hair and an updated look I had almost forgotten one could achieve. Thanks, Gino - I'll be back!

5 Stars: Best color and cut (by Paula819)

Paula819 — Wed, 21 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I recently moved to the Dallas area from New England. I went to a hairdresser recommended by a coworker, and hated my hair. He gave me a color and cut in under 60 minutes! I was embarrassed to go to work the next day. Luckily I received a mailer from Gino's at home, and after looking at the website, made an appointment. I didn't know what to expect, but I immediately felt very welcome. Gino spent some time with me first to find out what I wanted (and didn't want), then gave me the best color and cut of my life. I've been back to him since, and like my hair more and more each time. The color is incredible and the cut so soft and feminine. Everyone at Gino's is very friendly and professional. I feel very much at home each time and would very highly recommend Gino to anyone who has ever had a bad color or cut - Gino will get it right.

5 Stars: True professional, artist, & "hair"apist (by DallasRealEstatePro)

DallasRealEstatePro — Tue, 20 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

When I walked into Gino's my hair was all sorts of distressed. I've been going to the same lady for 4 years and she recently was diagnosed with a string of diseases so I knew it was time to find a new stylist. I have been very loyal and was VERY nervous to go anywhere else. HOWEVER I was more than pleased with m hair cut, color, and repair. Actually, the thing I was most impressed with was the quickness in foiling my hair. It used to take my last hair stylist 2-3 hours <i>just</i> to do the color (and she has her own private suite) but I was out of the salon today in 2 hours and that was including shampoo, conditioning, cut, blowdry, and style! REALLY IMPRESSED. The products they use are minimal (so there's no funky build-up)and unique. He really did an incredible job. I'm used to paying half of what I paid today but honestly, you get what you pay for. It was worth it. The girl who shampoo'd & conditioned me was personable and gave a great head massage. I use a flat iron on my hair everyday and it doesn't ever look as good as it did with just the blow-out Gino did.

Thanks for your time & great work! I'll become a regular now.

5 Stars: Gino Salon is exceptional! (by Dunford)

Dunford — Thu, 15 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I can't begin to tell you how much I love my new haircut. Gino is truly a master artist when it comes to styling and color. He and his staff are warm and unpretentious. Gino finally gave me the cut and highlights that I've been looking for! Trust me, you won't be disappointed at Gino Salon.

lmf510 — Sun, 11 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

First time client and it was one of the best haircuts and colors I've had in a long time! New to the area from Chicago I had tried 2 other Salons in the Las Colinas area and Gino is steps ahead to the other stylists I've experienced. Attention to detail and great staff resulted in a wonderful haircut and color. I will be back!!!

I have been gong to Gino Salon for over a year now and I just love it. I started going when my current stylist, Debra, moved there - she is fabulaous and so attentive to my needs (hair needs moisturizing) and wants (layers, please!). My color is always beautiful and I am constantly getting compliments on it. When she was on materinity leave, Gino was kind enough to take on her customers and he did a fantastic job cutting my hair - it was just what I asked for and I love it!! Thank you! Michelle

contessacaro — Wed, 07 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I love Gino!!! I have been going to Gino's Salon for a little over a year and have always enjoyed my experience. Gino is an absolute master with color and always makes me feel great. He is reasonably priced and in a great location. I drive over an hour to see him - so you know it must be good... Thanks Gino

5 Stars: Love my highlights! (by pampar1)

pampar1 — Tue, 06 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I went to Gino Salon needing highlights, which I've never done before. Debra was the stylist that I used and she specializes in color, so I was hoping to get something great. She did not disappoint. She darkened my faded "box" color and then put some fabulous highlights that blend perfectly with my base color. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair. It is so perfect for the summer too! Debra was very honest and professional. She really seems to take pride in her work. I got the feeling that she would never let me leave the salon if I didn't love my hair.

5 Stars: Best Salon in Dallas (by Business1122)

Business1122 — Fri, 02 May 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I went there on the advice of a friend. What I can tell you is that the service was excellent and the haircut actually lasted longer than what others could do (this was good for me, I was able to go an extra 2 weeks before having to go back... not a good thing for their Salon, they missed out on an additional haricut from doing such a good job). I would highly recommend Gino's Salon to anyone looking for an exceptional haircut!!!

5 Stars: A pleasant surprise & no smoke & mirrors... (by shannond74)

shannond74 — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I was impressed by Gino's salon. There was a booking mistake & I was scheduled for a haircut rather that a high-light so Gino was unable to do my hair. Sharon offered to stay late (which was extremly appreciated b/c I had arranged for babysitting for 3 little ones) and help me out and she did a really good job. They are very concerned with the condition of the hair and paid attention to each little strand. I was there almost 3 hours between Gino, Sharon, & their assistant my hair got a lot of attention. I will definitely be going back. They did my hair a little darker than I am used to, but Sharon said the low-lights will fade. Gino is a nice respectable man & takes his job seriously. Sharon is talented & fun to talk to so you can't go wrong either way. I highly recommend Ginos salon....see ya there!!!! They do some really cool conditioning treatments w/ a flat iron that seemed well-priced as well as offering the "pony-tail cut....seemed interesting to me!!!

5 Stars: Fabulous! Fabulous! Fabulous! (by pachorney)

pachorney — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 09:00:00 GMT

If you are looking for a great "hair" experience - you need to see Gino!

Gino is an extremely gifted and talented man. His unique hairstyling techniques are amazing. Whenever you try a new hair stylist for the first time, you are always a bit hesitant about the outcome, however, I told Gino what I wanted done and the outcome was exactly what I was looking for in a texturizing haircut.

The shampoo & scalp massage was extremely relaxing!

I am looking forward to my next appointment!

I was looking on the internet for a new stylist in my area and Citysearch led me to Gino's Salon!

5 Stars: Calamari and Wine (by ThirdTimeIsACharm)

ThirdTimeIsACharm — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 09:00:00 GMT

Gino did a great job cutting my hair. We tried different styles until we found something I loved. He was very attentive, and I could tell he cared about my hair. As soon as I sat in his chair he diganosed my hair as dry, and then he corrected the problem. I was impressed. He even me a discount. If you want to be pampered, visit Gino's salon--and don't be shy; eat the chocolate.

5 Stars: Great experiene (by sfbride)

sfbride — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 09:00:00 GMT

Gino is very sweet, honest and hardworking. He is not afraid to be straightforward. He and his team are professional, creative and client oriented. I was a little uncomfortable with my new cut at first blush. However, as with any good cut, once I had some time to let it "rest" - I LOVE it! He does a great job with color and cut. In the past, I got the exact same boring cut and highlights. Then, I would hate it after a few days. With Gino - I didn't have to worry about "boring" hair. He was able to correct color mistakes, keep my length and give my hair the lustre it normally has. The texture and condition of my hair dramatically improved in just one visit. Plus, I really liked him as a person. He is not pretentious or silly in the slightest. He takes his work seriously and seems to be a very sensitive and caring stylist. I think it makes a difference when someone enjoys their work. He seems to care how his clients really feel about his work and will bend over backwards to make things work . He's a gem, very genuine and talented. I highly recommend him.

I drive from Lubbock to get my hair cut by Gino. He is consist and I always leave there with a new feel of confidence. He does a great job and knows just what I want my hair to do. I just wish he could do it for me every day. Everyone should give him a try.

I moved to Dallas in July and have been trying to find a good colorist. I have been to 3 other well known salons in the area, and have come out orange, yellow, brassy. I have just had a really hard time getting a great looking blonde color. Gino was my hero! He saved the day by giving me exactly what I was looking for. He was able to match some low lights to my natural color and then put in some great blonde highlights giving me a beautiful color with depth. Thanks Gino! I have finally found a salon in Dallas!

5 Stars: If you are looking for an innovative and talented hair stylist, give Gino a try! (by teresamc1)

teresamc1 — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 09:00:00 GMT

A few months before coming to Gino, my friend and hair stylist's pregancy went bad and she was committed to three months of bed rest. After visits to two other stylists, my hair turned 'orange', dull, dry and brittle. This was bad because my hair is naturally curly, dry and course to begin with. Then I searched for and found Gino, and asked him to do whatever he thought was needed to fix my hair. And he did, he is amazing! He recolored all my hair a nice shade of brown, and added two toned highlights. He also gave me a great hair cut which I love! Gino isn't just great with cutting hair to give you the style that best suits your face, he also cares about the overall health and condition of your hair. The color he uses is organic and has a pleasant, sublte and a herbal kind of scent. He sent me home with a jar of a deep conditioning and repair treatment for me to apply after the next shampoo, and this did wonders in repairing and restoring shine and health back into my hair.
Today, Gino performed a three-step treatment which he called 'diamante shine and gloss', where he ironed in a mask and serum mixed with real gold dust. My hair is now unbelievably soft and shiny, and the treatment brings out the glossiness in the highlights. For someone with naturally thick, curly and coarse hair, my hair is now unbelievably straight and silky!

In addition to Gino's great talent as a hair stylist, he also has a great sense of humor! His assistants are also very warm and friendly, and talented as well. I have two other friends who go to Gino as well, and their hair always looks marvelous. Thank you Gino, you are the best!

1 Stars: TERRIBLE. THE WORST HAIRCUT I HAVE EVER HAD. BEWARE! (by MeliR)

MeliR — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 09:00:00 GMT

I can't believe that this is the same salon everyone on here is raving about! What a terrible and terrifying experience for me. I made an appointment with Gino after viewing his website and even brought a picture of the haircut and color that I wanted. He barely looked at the photo, and proceeded to CHOP my hair completely. I asked for 2 inches off the ends, and he chopped off at least 5 inches, to where my hair was above my shoulders (keep in mind, the photo I showed him was of longer mermaid waves). He did not listen to my wants at all, and actually complained to me, a new customer, about how hard it is to keep "young girls" staffed at his salon, and how flaky they are, and how business is so hard and he just doesn't know if he can keep it together. ALL THIS, coming from THE OWNER. I cried so hard when I got home and noticed that not only did he not do what I asked for, but he chopped it so that my hair was cut straight across rather than layered smoothly. I could actually feel the scissors "ripping" my hair when he was cutting. The highlights I received were okay, but not the most flattering shade of blonde. I had to go back to him the very next day to see if he could even out the choppy "layers" he tried to put in my hair, and he actually had the gall to tell me that he cut my hair evenly on both sides so it must be my HEAD that is UNEVEN. What?! I have NEVER been treated this way nor gone to a salon that gets so much praise for being completely unprofessional and untalented. PLEASE BEWARE.

I am new in Dallas and was nervous about getting my hair cut in a new place. I chose Gino Salon, and I am so glad I did! Sharon did an excellent job cutting my hair. She listened and made sure I got exactly what I wanted, and I could tell she wanted to make me happy. She took her time and made me feel extremely comfortable. Before I left she told me I could call her anytime if I needed help styling my new look or if I had any questions! I love my new hair cut and I would recommend Sharon to anyone! I will definetely be back for another cut!

Thanks Sharon!

5 Stars: Best hair coloring and styling I ever had! (by meliss44)

meliss44 — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 09:00:00 GMT

Gino Salon is simply the best! I have been coloring my hair with other stylist for years (12 to be approx.) and it only took one color treatment with Gino to convince me of his magic skills. Honestly, my hair has never looked so good with the color and styles Gino has given to my hair. The atmosphere and service is upscale and Gino and the staff are very warm and friendly. I would highly recommend this Salon! One more thing, I would also recommend their hair products they sell in the salon as they are working great for me and my hair!

5 Stars: Gino is Simply the Best...really is! (by violet_r_smith)

violet_r_smith — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 09:00:00 GMT

Well let me put it this way....You dont just have an article on Allure magazine for Nothing. You must be doing something right....Gino really is the Best! His 22 years experience in the industry...but most importantly is his personality. He goes beyond to make me feel satisfied as a client. For instance, I used to be those really picky women (the ones that bring magazine cut-outs) Yep! It had to look just like that....but throughout the years (12 years to be exact) I've learned to just simply trust Gino. I let him decide what color fits my skin tone, what would flatter me the most, or compliment me the best. In the end, just like Allure "The Beauty Expert.... I'm always back at Gino's! :)

I am always very hesitant to try a new salon, but read all the good reviews on this site and thought I would give Gino's a try. Everyone at the salon was very friendly, and was even offered a drink at arrival. Becky gave me a great cut and color.She didn't rush through to get me out (like some stylists do) and she gave me the most relaxing scalp massage! It was a great experience and I will go back to Becky.

I know what your thinking, is it really true to read so many good reviews about this salon? Well trust me, it is! Even though I have lived in the Dallas area for over 7 years I have yet to find a colorist and hair cutter that I really like. I read the reviews on here and I though I would give it a try. The staff was very friendly, and was able to get me in soon. I had a color appointment scheduled with Becky. She was wonder! She listen to what I wanted, and even had time to cut my hair even though I did not initally schedule it. She did a fab job on both my color and cut, and she even taught me a styling secret. I just want to let you guys know that yes, you can trust these reviews. If you are looking for a salon to call home - go here - you will be glad you did! I know I am!

Gino is amazing! A true artist with hair. I went in for blond highlights after my former color tech at Toni & Guy left my hair spotty and brassy/orange. Gino got me to the right beautiful tone of blond I love. I?m so happy with both my color & cut, and I highly recommend his salon. This is the best color& cut I?ve had since moving to Dallas over a decade ago. His salon and staff are warm and friendly, making the whole experience truly wonderful. Give yourself a bit of "la dolce vita" and make an appointment at Gino salon today!

5 Stars: FABULOUS! (by scmaydew)

scmaydew — Fri, 31 Aug 2007 09:00:00 GMT

After my colorist in New Mexico retired, I thought I would never find someone who made haircolor and highlights so beautiful while still preserving the health of my hair. Then I learned of Gino from my mom. After making my first visit I was hooked, and for the past two years I have flown to Dallas to get my hair done by Gino himself (my parents think I came to see them!). I was even offered a modeling job because my 'hair color [was] ( and is ) so beautiful'. The products he uses along with Gino's great ability allow my hair to stay soft and undamaged, not to mention the sincere hospitality experienced when I walk in the door. I have since moved to Dallas and am so happy to be closer to Gino and his salon. Flights from Albuquerque to Dallas can get expensive multiple times a year, but it it was well worth the color, compliments and compensation from the new modeling job!

3 Stars: Gino Salon (by marie2007)

marie2007 — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 09:00:00 GMT

After seeing all the raves about Gino's Salon on CitySearch, I decided this was the salon to try. I was pleased with the haircut and color, it was definitely stylish. I was however disappointed with the service provided by the front desk. When it came time to pay I mentioned the citysearch coupon as I was searching for it in my purse and was told that it was only for $10 off not the $20 it said on the site. I questioned this and was told by Alex that it was only $10 off even though this was a weekday and I was a new customer. I went ahead and paid and left. The coupon is clearly for $20 off, and while the $10 difference is nominal it does point to a rather disappointing aspect to the experience, namely a lack of honesty and integrity towards the customers.

5 Stars: Top-quality salon at reasonable prices (by m3crossy)

m3crossy — Wed, 25 Jul 2007 09:00:00 GMT

After searching for over a year to find a new hair salon, I finally found Gino's Salon. What I discovered at Gino's was lots of capable, friendly, and talented people whose top priority was customer satisfaction. They didn't carry my color line that I liked, so they custom ordered it for me and have been ever since I started going there, and they keep meticulous notes on the formula they use each time. Prices are reasonable too. The people are very nice there, the seating is comfortable, there's lots of light, it's a very convenient location, and they strive to offer appointment times convenient for me. They offer you a soda when you arrive, there's little mini-size candy pars to snack on if you're hungy, and there are plenty of good CURRENT magazines laying around to pass the time while waiting on your color to process or what not. I've never had a bad experience there, and I even had the courage to get bangs cut on my very long hair for the first time in 20 years because I trusted them so much. That's saying a LOT! Great place - great people - great quality - great atmosphere - great location. What more could anyone ask for? :-)

5 Stars: Best Haircut (by sarahkanga)

sarahkanga — Wed, 25 Jul 2007 09:00:00 GMT

I moved to Dallas in November of 2005, having struggled in the past with finding a descent stylist I was hesitant to start the search again. I went on Citysearch and began the hunt, I found the reviews for Gino to be excellent so I thought I'd give him a try. The first time I went in one of his associates cut my hair, she did an excellent job, it was the first time I've walked out of a salon completely satisfied. Since then Gino has been cutting my hair. Everytime has been wonderful experience, the staff is always friendly and I've never had to wait. The atmosphere is great, I love the art deco decor and have recommended Gino to several of my friends. Thanks Gino!!

My appologies to Becky for not sending a before picture, but if you could see the transformation Becky made in my appearance, you would not want anyone to see the before either. I had not had my hair done for 10 years. It was past my waist and graying considerably as I had never had it colored.
Becky transformed me from a timid old lady into a relaxed and satisfied customer for life. She also answered myriad questions that to her must have seemed unending. Sorry again Becky.
Everyone at Gino's was absolutely professional, friendly and understanding.
Going from waist length gray hair to mid-back warm brown was something I should have done years ago.
I recommend this salon to anybody who would like a change but is feeling timid.
You're in good hands,
Kathy

3 Stars: Okay, but not that great (by mah92)

mah92 — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 09:00:00 GMT

Maybe my experience is unusual, but I found Gino to be only so-so. The guy who greeted me was very nice and hospitable. My haircut was with Gino, and my preference is to have to deal with only one person from washing the hair to styling. However, I was passed back and forth between Gino and his assistant who washes and blow-drys hair. This would be okay if I had even been introduced to the girl, but there was no real transition there which I thought was odd. I didn't find Gino to be very personable or all that interested in cutting my hair. He was more interested in talking to the bleach blonde haired woman who walked in during my haircut. I didn't get any color done, but I would kind of be leary as I saw a woman walk out who looked like her hair was a greenish tint (maybe it was just the lighting). They do have a comfortable chair in the back where they wash your hair and I did appreciate the "steaming" for the deep conditioning. Overall, I'll go back to my usual guy at Red Door as I can't see that Gino is any better for the same price. There's no magic going on here, but I'm guessing they do get a lot of traffic due to the favorable comments on here as I heard them ask a customer who was leaving to write in a comment.

I've recently moved to Dallas and didn't yet have a salon...now I do!

I'd been to four stylists to try to get my hair back to it's original brunette without the brassy red in it. My hair had gotten really damaged in the process. Today I'd just had enough of trying to work with it.

I found Gino's while doing a Google search. Alex was really nice, got me a same day appointment with Thao.

I initially intended just to get a hair repair treatment and cut. Thao assured me that she could get my hair back to it's natural color, and she did!

She also helped me decide where to go next with updating my style, and showed me how to repeat these results at home.

Thanks, Alex, Thao and Gino's

I live in FtW and found Gino's on line read the reviews and took the trip to Dallas to see for myself. So glad I did. I got a gorgeous hair color out of it by a very sweet girl, Tao and Gino himself cut my hair. What a great down to earth guy! Not to mention he did a fabulous job on my haircut. I will be making the trip to Dallas again.

I'm a very last minute type of gal, so it was a nice suprise that I could get in on such short notice! I absolutely love my highlights and the cut. It's exactly what i wanted!

I have been a client of Gino for 5 years now. I was showing a friend this site to give her more information about Gino's when I read the last review. It disturbed me when I read what this woman had written. I have sent many friends and family members to Gino and I have never heard of one being dissapointed. Gino has a great talent and passion for what he does. You can't please everyone all the time, but I will say this he has pleased me for years and will continue to make me happy for many years to come. I was getting my hair done just a few days ago and he is not having business problems he is actually expanding his business with more to offer.

I cannot imagine trusting my natural highlights to anyone else. I have been going to Gino Salon for years and know that I will look great with the haircut and color that I choose. I have been very pleased with the stylist suggestions to add a little more motion and interest to my long hair. I always learn something. Just ask for tips on shampoo, drying, curling, updos. The staff is knowledgeable, helpful, friendly plus a treat with wine and chocolate!
My husband finally went to Gino Salon and now won't go anywhere else. All the women complimented him on his hair after his first visit! I didn't even pay them...

I recently moved to the Dallas area and was very nervous when it came time to find a new salon. For I believe hair is a womans best accessory, and a bad hair cut and color can result to a bad hair day attitude for a month! Like others I choice Gino because of the wonderful reviews I saw on this site, and I was not disappointed. Meg Dunbar was my stylist and I was extremely happy with her. She spent a considerable time with me discussing in detail how I would like my hair. She had top of the line European products and my highlights and lowlights are very natural looking. She was very professional and easy to talk to and time flew by seating in her seat sipping my drink and eating an occasional chocolate.

I have been searching for a new hair stylist for years and I finally found him! I have had many bad experiences with bad haircuts and bad color/highlight jobs. So, I was very nervous about trying again. However, since Gino is so highly recommended, I decided to take a chance. I took in a few pictures of the color/cut that I wanted and Gino matched it perfectly! I have taken the same pictures into other salons and they didn't even get close. The atmosphere in the salon is very calm, relaxing. I was also impressed that my hair was done quickly. He started my hair on time (I am used to waiting for 30 minutes or more past my appt time at other salons). I am very excited that my search for the perfect stylist is over! Also, Gino claims he is not a magician, but I disagree! After a string of bad experiences, I am extremely impressed with his skills. I definitely will be back to his salon and would recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect color/cut.

michelletaylor — Sat, 26 Aug 2006 09:00:00 GMT

I had just returned from a three week trip in France and Italy. From using different shampoos and water the color had been striped from my hair. Also, I had a razor cut.
Run if anyone ever comes at you with a razor, especially if they dont speak English! My hair was awful. I am a Leo and my hair is very important to me. It was so bad I didnt go in the office after I returned. Instead, I found Gino on City Search and went to him. He looked at my hair with devastating horror. He mumbled something in Italian. He may have been praying. I felt like I had unfixable hair. He told me it would take two appointments to fix my color and highlights and I had to let my hair grow to get rid of the razor damage. I drank espresso and floated back to the Italian Riviera as many processes were done to my hair. When he finished I looked much better and was happy. He told me when to come back for a trim and I did. Then my hair looked ever better. Then I went back a couple of days ago for my second color treatment and my hair is fabulous! Gino is the best!

5 Stars: One word: FABULOUS. (by butterfliie)

butterfliie — Wed, 16 Aug 2006 09:00:00 GMT

Like everyone else, I am always relatively unsatisfied with my cut/color after I leave a salon. My hair is a very dark brown, and highlights are generally either too dark or too brassy. I tend to change stylists after one or two visits because of this problem, but no more! I've finally found an amazing salon and Angel and Gino were absolutely wonderful - so incredibly patient with my indecisiveness and my insistence on going a shade lighter than recommended. (I ended up with a "light tobacco" gold which is a caramel-like shade of brown with hints of honey.) Because my hair was previously colored, Angel and Gino applied two different colors so that the new growth wouldn't be darker than the ends. Moist heat (steam) was used to minimize damage and as a result, my hair remains smooth and shiny - no frizz here! I would have been an incredibly pleased client with just the color, but Angel gave me a gorgeous cut as well. I have straight hair which is quite thick as well, which usually means that it's weighed down into a boring flat style. However, Angel worked her magic and took out all of the heaviness while leaving long layers that translate into movement and body. I am just absolutely thrilled with both the cut and color that I received, not to mention the very reasonable price ($130 for 2.5 hours of work). I've been to many different salons ranging from SuperCuts to Salon Ishi in NY but have never gotten such genuinely special and personalized service as today. Thank you Gino, thank you Angel!

Gino is unbelievable! Moving here less than a year ago, the anxiety was building of "who will I find to do my hair?" Reading comments about Gino, I ventured forth and SUCCESS on the first visit!

I have very fine, thin hair--and have for a while. I got my Dad's hair. I moved here a few months ago and was terrified about going to a new stylist because I cannot afford for my hair to become damaged due to coloring or a bad cut. I just don't have that much of it. I went to Gino and I have never gotten a better hair cut. The color is perfect. I get compliments at work. My hair has never looked this good. The cut makes it look thick and full, and the color is perfect. There is no other word to describe it! Gino is not only passionate about hair, he is sincere, courteous, and professional. He truly cares and will make you look your best. I would recommend anyone to Gino.

I will recommend everyone I know to this salon! The staff is great, Gino is wonderful with hair and they all go out of their way for the customers.

I recently moved to Dallas and found Gino on Citysearch. He cut and highlighted my hair as well as cutting my husband's hair. He did a fabulous job on both. I've been spoiled in Houston, where my friend who cut my hair gave me a huge discount, so this was more that I was used to paying. I received the best head massage during my wash, beautiful color & cut, and all of my (long, thick) hair was curled by hand before I left. So, you get what you pay for, definitely. Gino insisted on personally cutting & coloring my hair and cuttting my husband's hair. He also recommended some great products for me. The salon is very nice and I even left with a number for a maid (who is excellent). It was a very successful experience and we will return to his salon.

My wife receives color and highlihts ,along with her hair cut, and her hair has never looked better. We are both very happy that we found Gino. We strongly recommend that you treat yourself to the best that Dallas has to offer. Even if they are booked, they will try their very best to fit you in.

I've been going to Gino for several years. I've got dark hair that is full and curly. Gino has the experience to color my hair a rich dark brown (others have made it BLACK) . Gino cuts my hair so that I can wear it both natural (curly) or dry it (straight ). His assistants - both named Angel - are wonderful and I've come to depend on them to apply the color and blow my hair dry. I've never been challenged to get an appointment!! I went to my last hair dresser for 17 years and thought I'd never make a switch but he just couldn't color my hair - now I've found the best of both - Gino is the master of the cut & color!!

5 Stars: AWESOME HIGHLIGHTS AND CUT (by jillian050505)

Lived in Dallas all my life, tried the best in Plano Willow bend area and in Park Cities and Gino by far is the best. He KNOWS hair. My highlights were the best I've had...very natural. I'm tired of the streaked look when haur is wet or up in a pony tail. My hair looked soft and natural. The cut was great. I have long hair and wanted long layers that didn't look like someone to scissors/razor to them....in the end I got a beautiful maintainable hair cut. My Husband and friends at the gym loved it. I will send all my referrals to Gino. It's nice to find some after all these years that I can trust to read a magazine while their cutting my hair and actually relax.

I get my hair done at gino's salon and he has been doing my hair for years. He has always done a great job and his staff is always so friendly. I have never had any problems with his service. I am writing this because i find that when people write ugly reviews about gino it is very offending to me since he does my hair. And in response to the girl that went to him and didnt have a good experience and then reffered her friend. What kind of friend is that?

5 Stars: Worth the drive (by csportershopper)

I drive from Lubbock for Gino to cut and style my hair. I realize that it may seem crazy to drive 5 hours for someone to do my hair, but I know it is worth it. I have looked for someone closer to home, but no one compares to Gino. I have a hard time styling my hair and when Gino cuts it, it is SO much easier to do. I just have someone close to home "trim" it , until I can get back to Gino. Gino has the "expert" skill that I want. I highly recommend him. Whatever you need to do to go, it is worth it.

I recently moved to Dallas and needed to find a sylist who I could learn to trust to cut and color my hair. I found Gino's salon on citysearch myself and trusted the people who wrote such good things about this place. I have to say I love my hair more than ever before. The entire staff was so nice and you could tell they love what they do. What I loved is that they never pressured you to do any certain thing with your hair or take in their hands and do as they wish(like so many do these days). They listened. Thanks Gino...I will definately be back.

5 Stars: great color and cut (by diana76)

my usual hairdresser could not fit me in this weekend. I used the search and found Gino's and read what every one had to say about it. On blind faith I made an appointment and thank GOD! they worked me in on MY schedule and I couldn't be happier with the results. I will go back again. The highlights are beautiful, thanks to Angel and the cut is beautiful, thanks to Misti. The salon has an airy open design, the staff are helpful and give beauty advice and hair tips. They are generous and helpful. My thanks to Angel, Misti and Gino.

Great color, great cuts, great staff. He will take his time with you and listen to what you want. Nice salon atmosphere as well. They always have bottled water, expresso, and I think they have wine, too. Also, Gino is a funny, nice guy.

I am actually from Austin and was in town visiting friends and needed a change so I got on here and found Ginos. I left a message on Friday evening and they let me sit in on Saturday for an open spot. I was blessed to get Misty(sp?), she knew exactly where I was wanting to go with my hair (a completely new style). I enjoyed the conversation as well which isn't typical for me. Most amazingly the cut was under priced in my opinion for the skill level. The whole staff felt comfortable enough to say I looked like Tom Green which is obvious and we all had a good laugh.

4 Stars: Nice place for a guy to get his hair cut! (by timmbob)

timmbob — Wed, 21 Sep 2005 09:00:00 GMT

What a great place to get a hair cut. I was stuck on that side of town, had a big meeting the next morning and needed to fit my hair cut in someplace. I don't trust just any place to cut my hair, and I needed to look sharp in the morning. My stylist was great and I looked great for the meeting. Gino didn't cut my hair, but he did come by and introduce himself and thanked me for the business. That's service.

This was my first trip to Gino Salon. My stylist, Angie Stanley, did an excellent job on my color as well as my cut. I told her what I was looking for and she satisfied me 100%. I highly recommend her for all the ladies out there. Thanks Ang!

5 Stars: Great Color and Haircut! (by lhamil)

lhamil — Fri, 19 Aug 2005 09:00:00 GMT

Recently I had an appointment with Gino for a highlight and haircut. From the moment I walked in the door I was made to feel comfortable by all the staff members. I was offered something to drink and was impressed with the expresso coffee Gino made! Gino listened to my color concerns and then did a fabulous job on highlighting my hair. The haircut was great too. For once, a stylist listened to my words "cut only an inch" and an inch was only cut - not two! The next day at work I received many compliments on my new style. Thank you Gino for helping my hair look it's best! I'll be back soon!

4 Stars: Absolutely Amazing! (by stanzik)

I was recommended by one of my friends to Gino. She has been going to him for almost a year and half now. The first time that i went there i was in awe at the place. It was beautiful and i was greeted with warmth and kindness right at the door. Gino never made me feel rushed and made sure that he knew exactly what i wanted. He took the time to get to know me and offered me something to drink immediately. He paid very close attention to detail and i absolutely loved it!! Now, i recommend all my friends to Gino. Thanks for the great hair!!!

I called up Gino Salon and I was able to be squeezed in with Angie the next day. When I arrived the next day I was greeted warmly and couldnt help but notice the chic fashionable decorating job. I showed up about 10 minutes early and they are already offering me a glass of wine "Divine" I say. When I sat down with Angie she began immediately to give suggestions with what she would like to do with my hair. I like that. I am not the pro stylist, she is supposed to be, and to me when she takes charge like that it shows me confidence, professionalism and a sense of comfort warms over me. Everything in a nutshell, I was extremely happy with Gino Salon and Angie has become my full time stylist and I would recommend this salon to anyone.

Gino does a great job of understanding what you as a client wants and how much time you spend on your hair. He uses his skills well and does not overprocess hair like I have seen a LOT of women coming out of other salons...I was in the salon to get my highlights done when you were there...you were not happy with anything any of the staff was doing...so sorry to say, some people can't be pleased...I am VERY pleased with Gino and his staff and would highly recommed him to anyone who asks...

I find that the people at Gino Salon are very laid back, well rounded people, and very sweet! Every time i have been in the salon there has been nothing but beautiful styles and gorgeous color! I would personally have to say this is the best kept secret in Dallas!

1 Stars: Worst Salon I have ever been to. (by shilpachaparala)

shilpachaparala — Sat, 30 Jul 2005 09:00:00 GMT

Ladies, I went to Gino's salon to get a highlight and haircut. My hair is black and I wanted deep cherry highlights and on the website it claims he is a color guru, boy is that wrong. He (mostly his staff) spent over an hour highlighting and dying my hair and then didn't even cut it correctly, although I had shown him a pic of the haircut I wanted. I left Gino's with my original black hair with no highlights to be shown (except my scalp which was orange) and a bad haircut. I feel so used, I paid $125 and for what he did, it was worth about $25. I felt like I had gone to supercuts instead of what was supposed to be a posh salon.
