I have been to many upscale salons in the area after moving here a few years ago. It is obvious that the stylists here have had really good training. Lisa fixed a really bad cut. She made my hair look beautiful. My hair color didn't turn out quite as expected because it had been processed so many times (elsewhere) so it pulled a lot of red which didn't look good on me. But the coloring job itself was good.
Amanda gives the best brow wax in the city. She could be doing brows for the movie stars.
I just heard Lisa is moving, but I have seen the other stylists' work, so I will see Steph next.

this salon was completely disappointing--in every way possible. The stylist was unfocused and pulled at my hair. May hair actually looks worse coming out than it did going in. I paid over $100 for something I could have gotten for $30 at supercuts..DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE...the customer service was also horrible. When I called to cancel one of my services the receptionist kept me on hold for 10 minutes in the middle of a busy work day until I hung up. I am really upset about how much this salon cost for really giving me nothing in return except for a really bad day and a lot less money in my pocket.

I have never had other services at Sybil, but Amanda M. is the brazilian wax queen! I would never go to another esthetician again.

Fake postings Re: Salon 5844, now this salon
By jennifer b.
I am a client and am sick of these hair salons being so silly. I am so tired of seeing these fake "positive" reviews. Read this from another salon. This is what is going on here at this salon:

Salon 5844 is Posting FRAUDULENT Reviews!!! 12/03/2008 Posted by honestreviewer01

There is an obvious pattern in these reviews. The negative review on 11/9/08 was followed by three 5 star reviews on 11/11, 11/12, and 11/14. There were actually no reviews since 7/10 which makes it extremely coincidental that three positives would get posted two days after the negative. I highly doubt that customers, like the one on 11/12, will ask people to book appointments too. The truth is, the employees or owners post these reviews to keep the ratings high. The negative review on 11/9 is not the only complaint with this salon...scroll down and see the others but they are skewing the data and pushing the negatives off the main page. Per the terms and conditions of Citysearch, postings by employees/owners is unnacceptable and can be removed since it decieves the customer. User Review Guidelines UNNACCEPTABLE CONTENT: 3. Reviews submitted by the reviewed business's employees (past or present) or competitors as determined by Citysearch. An owner, like Larry, that hangs up on any customer is just plain nasty. You can either take my advice and pay equivalent or less at Capristo (next door) or Jacques Dessange (Shadyside) to get the best in Pittsburgh or flush your money at 5844 to get the same old you can get for less anywhere else in Pittsburgh (Great Clips, Super Cuts, etc.).

I have been a patron of Sybil's Salon for about 2 years and I really like it. I have tried other salons but this one is the best for facials, waxing and mani/pedi's. JESS IS THE BEST! Looooooove the way she does my eyebrows and she is so friendly and easy to talk to. She also does the best nails and polish job I have ever experienced. I have given up painting my own, she has spoiled me! And I really like the Skinceuticals product line, great moisturizer. Even the gift certificates are printed out and personalized, which is a nice touch!
