Gino Salon

This guy is amazing !!!

by tiolazz at Citysearch

I couldn't believe when after the wonderful job that Gino does on my hair, I read a critic saying it was the worst salon in Dallas. Well Ladies, let me tell you, that person was smoking somthing funny !!!

Gino is the best colorist I have ever been to, and his cuts make me feel like a hundred dollars.

His staff is awesome , especially Abbie.... she is so bubbly and helpful and so nice just to be around, (plus she gives the best head massages when she washes your hair).... You can't help but love her.

Gino has been doing my hair for years, and I am very touchy about my hair color and style. He has even refused to cut my hair in a style that I liked because he told me that i would hate it, and i am sure that he would have been right.

you just can't find a better stylist or colorist in this town, so please don't pay any attention to the ramblings of some person who obviously had someone leak on her wheaties that day. Maybe they didn't kiss her behind or something, I don't know, but she is full of it....

This salon rocks and so do the personnel.... Be sure and try it, you will never let anyone do your hair again.

• Pros: Gino is the best, staff is very nice to be around.

Best Hair Salon in Dallas!

by Judnyse at Citysearch

I have been going to Ginos for about 4 years now. I live in fort worth, so its not always convenient. I went somewhere else a couple of months ago and they messed my hair up so bad, but Gino fixed it! Thank you Gino! He works miracles & is truley the best!

• Pros: Best Hair Salon in Dallas!

Gino was CREATED for High Maintenance Dallas Hair!

by krislove at Citysearch

After 17 years as a Dallas Blonde, I have finally committed to Gino, proudly leaving behind the lifestyle of hair whore! Gino really is a FABULOUS MAN with an AMAZING TALENT coupled with a HUGE HEART. I am of the pickiest when it comes to hair (a.k.a. every hairdresser's nightmare!) but I have never left Gino's with a single complaint about my hair or experience. I wish I had discovered him YEARS ago! Glad I disregarded the negative reviews knowing anyone can post anything and the competition must hate him (along with WACKED disgruntled ex-employees)! He must be doing something right to be at the TOP of CitySearch!

Great salon

I have been to Gino's Salon many times and always walk away happy. Gino is very professional, efficient, and charming. His knowledge and skill are evident in the great haircut I receive every time!

Look like my BF!

by Bernice M Collins at Citysearch

I went with my friend, last weekend, to Gino's and we really liked him! He did the most beautiful haircut on my friend. She looked like a model afterwards...She's pretty, but her hair is always fuzzy, it's always all over the place. He did like this deep treatment on her hair. Then, he did that steamer thing to straighten it...then he cut it like sideways, really delicately.

She was so pretty! It was black and shinny and just so pretty...I was a bit jealous :)

Then, she wanted bangs, but he said no. He showed her why....he was right, she looked pretty with the long layers around her face.

Ok, so, now its my turn...I want it just like her!

I'm going this Saturday! I'm excited! But I'm getting some highlights, as well. Can't wait!

Gino is the Best! (I'll do the drive, for my hair!)

by Brooke Leigh Sanford at Citysearch

I have lived in Plano/Frisco for almost 10years....until 10 months ago. Me and my boyfriend moved to Downtown Dallas, because our jobs are in Downtown (and we just got tired of being stuck in traffic every day for 45min-an hour...plus the gas was so expensive back then to travel back and forth every day, AND TOLL FEES! It's like we had to pay to go home )....So we moved. We now live 5 mins from our jobs. We love it! BUT, every month. I will drive up to Gino's Salon, because I just LOVE the way he does my hair! I just love him. I can't explain it. Like i hate it when people say, OMG he's the best! But I am not exagerrating or sounding fake. He really is the Best! I met Gino by accident, actually...back in 2001. My hairdresser was out on summer vacation...So I booked myself with Gino. And I am so Glad I did! I fell in love with his professionalism, his skills, the way he knows what color, cut, or styles look best on me. You can see his PASSION for hair. He really does love doing hair. It's not just a "job" or just a haircut, or another head to add color to. He really does cares. That is why, even after my previous stylist came back from her vacation...I never went back...I always went back to Gino. He's really funny too...He'll talk to me in Italian and I'm like "What?" :) He really is a nice gentleman....And when you walk into his salon, you will see that he is living an American Dream. He's from Italy and he's opened his own business in America..The only reason i know his background is because i read it in the "ALLURE MAGAZINE" Issue...He was named the Best Colorist in Dallas! So it's not just me who knows Gino is the Best! :)

• Pros: Color, Style, Cut--he's great all everything!!
• Cons: I just wish he was open on Sundays, too!

Simply the Best

by planononna at Citysearch

From the moment I enter Gino Salon until I leave, I feel very special. I am showered with attention from Gino and staff. Every 3 to 4 weeks I visit Gino for the best cut and color with highlights I have come to expect. Having been a client for 15 years, I don't even tell Gino how to do my 'do'. I trust him that much and am never disappointed.

The added bonus after a trip to Gino's is that I always feel great. Not only does he 'lift' my hair but also my spirits. He is a good man and and a true professional in his field.

I recommend him highly.

• Pros: warm, friendly,comfortable setting and people

Simply The Worst...........

by sassyfashionista at Citysearch

This guy is a joke. I pulled up to s shopping center where he was located. The salon was below average at best. It was dead inside. He was not nice during his introduction. When I was explaining what I wanted which was blond highlights he wasn't listening, he argued with me and was very synical. He wanted to make me darker allover instead!?!?!?! I disagreed then I made him pull out the color swatches to SHOW him what I wanted so there was no misunderstanding. I agreed to a light brown lowlight and very blond highlights. When the 4 Hour process was finally over, my hair was brown with NO blond highlights?!? He put a toner allover it that washed all of the blond out of my hair. I have pictures before and after. My haircolor was orangy/brown and spotted!! I had bad vibes about the location, condition of the salon, and his professionalism or lack thereof to begin with. I wish I had just left. I also noticed all of the women in there getting there hair done (which was all of three people) were older and had dark brown hair. Not a good sign. This place is not for BLONDES!!! I argued with him the next day and he gave me a partial refund which was, again, unprofessional. He wasted 4 hours of my time plus 45 minutes of drive time to the salon and I had to pay someone the next day to fix it. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!

• Pros: Not a thing
• Cons: Time and Money Waster

Ok not too great

by LindaGirl at Citysearch

This place is overrated. I walked into a dead salon. Pictures are so deceptive. Then came Gino. He hardly spoke to me just kept nodding his head muttering to himself and eventually did whatever he wanted to do and not what I asked for. His assistants are friendly and nice. Gino did a good job with the cut but the highlights he gave me "NONE". I walked out with no color and payed a fortune for just a cut without color. Very upset with the coloring. You may be an expert as you claim but once in a while it won't hurt to give clients what they ask for. Ultimately 100% customer satisfaction is what matters not your own satisfaction.

• Pros: Good cuts and assistants
• Cons: Bad coloring. Do not recommend.

Great Cut!

by ac011000 at Citysearch

Gino gives a fantastic haircut. He's cut my hair several times, and I've never been disappointed. It always looks great! The staff is very efficient and friendly, and the salon is in a convenient location.

• Pros: Great Cut, friendly staff!
