AMS Salon — Local services in Philadelphia

A wonderful experience from start to finish. Megan started with me on color, talking me through her process, explaining along the way what she was doing, and why. She clearly knows exactly what she's doing when it comes to color. She's also absolutely lovely and easy to talk to - like you're old friends. We chatted it up the entire appointment! Alex is a bit more quiet, but it's because you can see the wheels turning in his head. He looks at your hair like a blank canvas and then goes at it with the scissors in such a dramatic fashion....it's literally watching an artist at work! Fantastic stuff. I was blown away at his technique and how he could completely transform a head of hair, with just a few snips. His eye for matching the right hairstyle to your face is second to none. I also felt absolutely welcome there. It's clearly an upscale salon, but they make you feel comfortable and at ease. I would definitely go back and recommend them to...

Since moving from NYC 5 years ago I have been going to AMS and absolutely love this salon. I wear my hair both curly and straight and the way Amelia does my balayage and Alex cuts my hair is literally perfect for both styles. Amelia is incredibly talented, super fun and very sweet. I love how she talks through things with me and makes me feel comfortable. My color is always absolutely gorgeous. The way Alex cuts hair is truly a work of art, not to mention he is very warm and thoughtful - remembering our conversations from previous appts. I receive so many compliments from colleagues, clients, friends and family. The salon itself is beautiful, feels very high end and everyone that works there is incredibly professional and friendly. Thank you AMS for making me feel beautiful! This salon truly deserves the 5...

I called this salon because it was rated best for color services in Philadelphia. While playing the telephone game with the receptionist (answering my questions by putting me on hold and running over to the stylist) I experienced harsh comments geared at getting me NOT to come in. I finally got the stylist on and this treatment continued even going there with old checking to see if I can pay act (I’m a doctor). I eventually stated that even if the color can’t be done, because I have an event, I would definitely want to leave with at least a wash a blowout. I was then told, “then you should find another salon”. Is this because the photos I was made to send ahead revealed that I was African American? I’ve been getting keratin for 7 years, now it’s suddenly dangerous for hair? Gross treatment!...
