My 1st visit & I will go again to KAYLA. She talked w/ me, at length about my color, & the RED turned out Better jobbeautiful. I DO THINK THAT THE INSTRUCTORS CUD DO A much better job in their appearance, especially their HAIR, several looked like they needed conditioners & like they just rolled out of bed !

Not the best school

I attended Xenon in 2008. I picked Xenon instead of Capitol because it looked more creative there... Big mistake. When we got graded on practical work, there were 1-2 teachers for my class of 30 students walking around grading. If they did not see you do something, you got marked off for it! How could they possibly watch all 30 students at the same time!? The last straw was when i moved on from Basics to the floor. We had a classroom session about colour, and everyone was asking questions to understand better. After about 5-6 questions, the teacher very rudly replied " If you guys would stop asking questions, we could get through this"... Really?? NONE of us had ever even used that brand of colour! I thought i was paying for an education, not a PMSing teacher getting mad when we ask questions!I have worked at a few different salons since as a receptionist or retail consultant, and every single person i talk to, even Xenon grads, say Capitol is the way to go!

My husband and I have been going to Xenon for years now and LOVE... LOVE... LOVE it!! Everyone is very friendly and the supervisors are very helpful. I am very picky about my hair and am pleased to say that I have not had one bad experience. Great prices and atmosphere. I recommend for sure!

If I could give it a negative five stars or ten I would give it. They may be students and are suppose to be under supervision but a bad hair cut is still a bad hair cut. The student is graduating in 20 days so she should have known more. I will never go back and strongly caution anyone else who is thinking about making this mistake. If you think that you will get any help from the supervisor expect to hear "if it was that important to you, you shouldn't have come here." All I wanted was highlights, a trim, and layers. How hard could it be for someone who is graduating from there in 20 days. My hair was all cut off. All 16 inches of it. Don't make the same fatal error I did. It won'T LET YOU SUBMIT WITHOUT A RATING THAT's THE ONLY REASON THEY GOT ONE STAR.

i love this place

I have gone here twice and both times i had my hair highlighted it may take a little longer but they have always done a good job. Plus for long thick hair it only cost me $45 and all other places I have gone want $75 to start. It is a wonderful place and they do a wonderful job

Xenon Graduate

I graduated from xenon in 1996 and I have never received a complaint. I have had the pleasure of working with other xenon graduates and it was so easy to work with them because of our extensive training. We stayed on the same page in regard to product knowledge and technical procedures. I was the worst student they could possibly have and I was taught how to be neat and professional. I believe that any bad experiences are few and far between.

not happy

I have never had a worse hair cut, and I have never come home with so much hair on me. I completely suport schools and learning, but the instructor wasn't even able to give a good hair cut.I am not one to take the time to write a complaint so this is pretty bad.

My daughter and I really like this place.

We've been satisfied with our haircuts. We like it that our appointments are honored on time. Exceptionally great value for the money. I highly recommend.

Good quality for the price

XENON gives great facials, back facials, manicures, and pedicures at a very very reasonable price. I have had wonderful results!!! Also a bargain are haircuts and makeup application. They do good jobs on kids, too. Even though I can afford a full price salon, why get those expensive facials and pay all that money when you can get this at XENON for less and have the exact same results? Come on, give 'em a try! You will be happy you did. Hey, I almost forgot. I took my husband there. He got a facial, a back facial, manicure and pedicure. He enjoyed himself so much and his skin felt so great and he looked so good he himself made another appointment!!! WOW. Guys love it too.
