Modern Hair Junkie

Worst hair cut i have ever gotten. hands down.

i felt like it was an inconvenience for me to be getting a hair cut from her. she didnt know what she was doing and cut a huge chunk from the front of my hair!

please never go here

This place saved my life and sanity. I made the huge mistake of going to this horrible and terrible salon called Visual Impact Salon in Scottsdale. The person who did my hair was a nightmare. My first time getting extensions and of course I didn't know what to do. I trusted the stylist and shouldn't have. She put straight hair in wavy hair, she did colors that she swore matched my hair and they didn't. The cut was wrong, beads were falling out and the salon and manager were blaming me!!!

By the time I made it to Modern Hair Junkie I was crying daily as I watched my extensions fall out daily, making it to 100 pieces that came out in TWO WEEKS!!! Thankfully Modern Hair Junkie was able to fix it, taking out all the ratty extensions that were also horribly placed in at unusual places.

My hair was also terribly dry from the blow out the other salon did, too bad the stylist had no clue what she was doing then either. MHJ was able to fix the dryness, the bad extensions, and made my hair look good again.

I suggest you STEER CLEAR of VISUAL IMPACT SALON and their so called stylist Rachel Reedy. GO TO MODER HAIR JUNKIE, not only did they do an amazing job, they were friendly, extremely funny, and it was a great atmosphere like family there. If the trauma ever wears off from what Visual Impact's Rachel Reedy did to me, then I'll get extensions again by this Salon for sure. They've got me as a client for life.

So, I didn't realize that businesses can go in and remove bad reviews about their business on their own. Apparently, that's what the owner of Modern Hair Junkie did so these great reviews of yelp doesn't reflect negative reviews so don't be fooled. If you are looking for a clean and serene salon to go to stay away. This is not up to par to what Scottsdale have to offer. I will repost my review for you to actually make an informed decision and not be tricked by reviews that may well be from the owner herself. But don't take my word for it only, go see for yourself. Just do not give this salon your credit card information, NO MATTER WHAT. You will regret what you will have to go to get charges removed from your card when services was NEVER performed.
Then the owner had the nerve to bribe me with the refund off my credit card if I would remove the negative review myself of her salon for her so that she can maintain her good reviews. SHADY.

My current stylist is on pregnancy leave so I was given a recommendation to check this place out by a friend. Clean stylish salon, no problem to get scheduled in, The stylist was friendly and I could tell she is a perfectionist at what she does which I very much appreciate. Would go back if my regular stylist was unavailable again.

I got a spray tan here from the owner, Manae for Halloween and not only was it awesome, affordable and quick but I had a blast! I would def recommend her to anyone who is looking for a quick and inexpensive spray. I have a crazy work schedule but she was very accommodating fitting me in past 7 PM and even gave me a glass of wine. Her spray set up isn't super fancy but she did a great job and the spray was good quality so my tan looked natural. Plus she is hilarious so it was more like hanging out with a friend than getting sprayed by a total stranger. She gives discounts on spray packages and gives one free once you purchase ten but at $20 a spray I will keep coming back even without the special discounts!

Worst hair extensions I've ever gotten. I've been getting great lengths hair extensions for 10 years and tried to switch because Manae convinced me that I was only paying for the "name brand". Big mistake. She damaged my hair so badly and all of the extensions fell out within a month. The hair looked fake and felt fake. It was horrible. This is all aside from the fact that Manae kept taking "smoke breaks" and going outside to smoke. She was completely unprofessional and bashed other hair stylists around the valley. Please save your money and go elsewhere and pay more for a quality product and service.

After debating writing a review I've decided it's time. A month ago I contacted the number listed. This is not a salon anymore. Menae did my hair at her house which I was fine with. Her assistant removed my weave. I spoke with menae extensively about what I wanted : to go from a dark brown to a cranberry red color. My hair was chest length. Over the next six plus hours menae worked on my hair. I understand (and so did she) that my hair was going to be different colors because of re growth and the hair in my weave not being colored in a while. Shhe assured me it would not take much and that she was "fearless with bleach" she really convinced me it wouldn't be a difficult task or too bad on my hair. I spoke with other stylist who told me the same. But she convinced me she knew what she was doing. After her "fearless" bleaching, my hair was very light, like a cream yellow. Then she put color over that. Then she toned that. Then she toned again. By the end of this process, the top portion of my hair was about two inches long. I had her cut the length into a bob to try and camouflage the short hair on the top of my head. I left with bright orange hair. The next day I washed my hair. It instantly curled up on the ends (my hair is straight) and turned various shades of blue green and gray. I went to her house to have her correct it, and she toned it again. It still looked hideous. I had to dye it again from a professional and get a weave put in again. After the escapade, my hair is about one inch on top. To put icing on the cake, I had bought product from her which when I got home to use it realized it was either gone, half gone, broken nozzle, or Pantene pro v in a biolage bottle. Please save yourself. Do not call her.

Dont believe her lies. I do not work in the hair industry by any means. I guess some people will do anything / say anything to avoid the truth...its just sad when the dishonest individual is a business owner. The damage this woman caused to my hair is unforgetable...but whats worse than that is how unprofessional she is and how she did absolutely nothing to correct the situation. She remembers exactly who I am, as well as the incident because for a while she would just have her daughter answer my phone calls...that was until she turned the salon phone off all together. Either way if you get your hair done here, its like taking your life in your hands.

Well first of all, I went in to what appears to be a professional setting. And, no cosmetology license anywhere to have been seen, RED flag number 1. Then, it was obvious she was drunk and high and so were her "friends" in the so called "Salon" also, on a side not, she has an ad on Suggardaddy.com, not cute for a business owner. She was extemely in appropriate the whole time, obviously very inexperienced in doing extensions, she added way too much hair, and then I saw her take hair out of white trash bags and use them on me. It didnt dawn on me till later, THEY were someone elses old hair! Which she charged way too much for! That explains why she wants you to always use new hair, she takes your old ones and re sells them! Very shaady! Dont make the mistake I made by going there.
