Embelleish Salon in Reading is Wonderful! All of the girls there have a wonderful reputation and do great work. I have had Tara cut & color my hair for the last 8 years and am always 100% pleased when I leave there!

Jen at Embelleish has been my stylist for years. She is an amazing stylist and does fantastic color. At one point, while living in California, I flew home every few months to have her do my hair!

Cassie at Fringe is my go to girl and I love her and would be lost without her. For my girls I go to Lumina and Fringe and have been to Leah at Embellish. I've worked closely with Fringe and Lumina on town events such as the Chamber's Women Celebrating and events I've had at The Chocolate Truffle. I make it a point to support local businesses and am happy to say Fringe and Lumina do a lot to support local businesses too. Many customers have come into The Chocolate Truffle and said "Fringe" or "Lumina" told us to come here. Gary at Fringe also cleared my work computer of a nasty virus! I'm fortunate to be part of a town with so many talented stylists, but also business owners who help support each other.

The Salon on Haven! Love all of them! Channel 7 even did a small segment on them after visiting with many salons in Reading for locks for love. Not only are they great/friendly/wonderful hairdressers the girls are also very generous and always willing to help with any charity/fundraising event when asked.. I have been a happy costumer with them for 7 years now and have sent many pleased clients to them as well. :)

Michael at Salon Laura Michael - very good with subtly layered cuts for curly, thick hair and very natural-looking colors; have been going to him for over 5 years. Also Heather at Salon Laura Michael is great for kids cuts - my 6 yr old son has thick wavy hair but does not have the face shape for the standard buzz cut every boy has, he needs a precise scissor cut on top--Heather's cuts for him are the best he's ever had - they grow out perfectly.

Lumina is not only a salon but an all around experience, from the wonderful hair that the girls do, to the manicures and pedicures and the massage they offer. I've been going to Lumina for a year now and every time I go in it's always warm and inviting. I would recommend my stylist Annmarie, she is amazing w short or long hair and she does amazing corrective color!!!

She is so talented and makes you feel so relaxed and welcome, she is a major asset to the salon, which is very fabulous in their new location! The staff and stylists there are wonderful!! My entire family sees Stephanie - and my best friend drives from out of state to see her! From up-dos to cuts she's amazing. I've NEVER received so many compliments from random strangers on my haircut before connecting with Stephanie. She's a gem!

I am sure many of the stylists are qualified, but AMY MUIR is my pick.

It is clear that I am not the only one who feels this way and it is not just because she does a great job with our hair. She is an even better person and someone who I enjoy seeing on a regular basis. I think that separates her from the rest of the crowd.

Jen Repucci at Utopia Salon on Haven St. I have been going to Jen for about 12 years and I am always happy. I have a daughter that is a stylist. She lives in CT, a bit far to travel. Jen is the only other person that I would allow to touch my hair. While I was going through Chemo she worked me and tried all different things to make my hair perfect. I never even lost it although I was told that I would. Maybe because I am lucky or maybe it was my fantastic hairdresser. Just saying!!!

Stephanie Spinale @ Embellish Salon in Reading!! It's hard to figure out whats the best part of going to see her is....The GEORGEOUS job she does or the fact that she will have you laughing and chatting so much you won't want to leave!!

She is so great and did an amazing job doing the hair for my sisters bridal party!!

Amy Muir at Lumina Salon. I can't even think about going to any other stylist. She has a special way of making you feel and look your best each time you walk out of Lumina. I am lucky to have her as my stylist.

I have lived in Reading my whole life and have been to all of the aforementioned salons. LUMINA is by far the class of Reading. My wife and I go to see AMY MUIR and have not been disappointed.

Our votes go to LUMINA SALON and AMY MUIR

Lumina Salon and Amy M. are my picks! i was fortunate to meet Amy M through a close friend and went to see her this past year. She's a good stylist and one that I can trust with my hair.

Jenn at Utopia is the best there is. I would never let anyone else ever touch my hair! I have thick, curly and unmanageable hair, then Jen works her magic, and turns it sleek and beautiful! The straightening , color and cut is always perfect!

Tara at Embellish gets my vote! She is by far and away the best of the best! Embellish itself is a beautiful, professional salon with a bunch of great girls who all provide great service. But Tara is a true artist who has absolutely mastered her craft! I always leave with a smile on my face and always receive compliments on her work, even from complete strangers, she's THAT good!!! I have been lucky to be her client for around 10 years now and I'd never go to anyone else!

Amy gives the best men's haircut around! From what I can see she is not too bad with the ladies cuts either.

I vote for Amy M.--Lumina Salon

For sure, Embelleish is my favorite salon! I look forward to my monthly appointments as the staff is always friendly, energetic & professional. I have color and cut, and my hair always looks fabulous. I see Jen, who does AMAZING color, cut, and blowdry, but have also had other stylists too and am always happy with the results!

LOVE Embellish, and Jen is absolutely wonderful. Even when I don't know exactly what I want, she's able to take my random comments and hand-waving ideas and turn it all into the perfect cut. I always look forward to going.
