After going to many salons over the past 15 years, Aimee Kennedy is the only stylist who always creates exactly the look that I ask for, and she does this every time. The color is perfect and so is the cut. She really listens and makes sure you look fantastic before you leave. It is worth the wait. And I am always very short on time. I will never go anywhere else for a color or cut.

My best friend jamal and I have been going to amy n aimee’s for nearly ten years and i LOVE it there! Stephen spent hours helping me get an apple sized knot out of my hair I had gotten in a fight (long story) and saved my hair from missing a huge chunk. Each and every time I walk out of their salon I feel like a million dollars and get a nillion compliments. I hope their around for another 30 years!

Update: After Christina left, I switched over to Stephen and he’s a whole other level of awesome. He actually did runway hair in London.

I’ve only had to wait once in all the years I’ve been going there (it was only for about 20 minutes), and that’s because they won’t rush a client out of the chair before they’re satisfied.

I didn’t mind waiting a few minutes because I know there have been times when I wanted something different or requested a service I hadn’t originally booked for and they accommodated. I don’t begrudge anyone else the time they need to achieve the look they came for. Plus, every single person in the salon – from the shampoo girl to each hairdresser – offered me a drink at one point or another during my honestly brief wait. This is a Salon, not Supercuts, and in Salons they do quality work, not quick hack jobs. That takes time and sometimes it means you wait a bit for the better end result.

And again, I don’t go in looking like a fashion plate either. I’m not gorgeous or trendy, but that doesn’t seem to matter. Maybe the person who said they felt that they were looked down upon has some self confidence issues they’re projecting onto the salon. And maybe the people who got attitude got it because they were rude and impatient, not as a matter of course. (Honestly, you tell them their work “f—ing sucks” and expect them to bend over backwards for you? I do not for one minute believe any of the stylists there gave a haircut that sucked. It’s possible they gave you something you didn’t end up liking, but there are a lot of ways to convey that without swearing at them. They care about customer service, but that doesn’t mean they have to fawn all you after you cursed them out.)

This place is busy because they provide quality service. They don’t need to put up with your unreasonable attitude because they have quite enough business without you.

So yeah, still recommend it.

Amy P gives the best haircut! I have been going to her for 15 years and when I lived in Toronto (In between) I could never get as good a hair cut. She cuts each hair and gives you all the attention you need. Perhaps they book too tightly, so she is often late, but you own’t get a better haircut in Buffalo.

Stephen is my stylist,he just suggested i go blonder with shade of gold going through my hair,Well i love it,it is the best so far,Stephen is a great talent,sincere and nice,I think he needs to open his own place,and get out of the of this salon,he;s the only one ever there for his clients,The girls look ike the just woke up on a barroom floor,very unput and messy,I don;t see any head turning work from them, my opinion,Stephen keeps this salon classy

Great color! Worth the wait! Amiee kept working on it until I was happy with the color (and I’m hard to please, with hair that is very hard to color). Hey, even if it takes a while, you will end up looking great. And another plus – they actually listen to the customer. I don’t know how many salons I have been to where this was not the case. Planning to be a repeat customer.

I just got my hair done there last week. My hair looks awesome!!! Amy Peters is the ONLY one I will ever trust to do my hair. She has been cutting and styling it for almost 20 years!
Sometimes I have to wait, but it is so worth it!!
