Pleasant and clean. Friendly. Cut with Loan based on referrral and online reviews good. Perhaps the technical aspects of the cut were good and you may have a good experience. However, I went in with collarbone length hair, explained it was recently cut, I didn’t want to lose length but needed some long layers added to my wavy hair to remove the triangle bulk effect from last cut which left hair mostly one length. Had some pics of what I’d find acceptable. Thought I was clear. I ended up with an old fashioned bob, that when dry the length is now at my jawline and I still have a triangle. My one star comes from not having someone know how to work with wavy hair that poofs with Florida humidity, not hearing I didn’t want to lose length, not hearing I wanted to get rid of the triangle but received a shorter version of it and now having hair so short I’ll have to wait 6 months to a year before I can attempt to get it cut again. I showed my sister and she laughed and made me swear not to attempt to get another cut for a long time. So it’s not just my take on it. It’s hideous, would have been better on fine straight hair and a much older person who didn’t care about having trendy hair. Now I have to pull my hair back for the next half year minimum while it grows out. From a vanity point of view, I’m devastated. I’d share pics if I wasn’t so embarrassed. But taking it in stride because there are worse things in life that could happen than a bad hair cut.

Em is wonderful and I have been with her for 11 years! Love the shop and everything they offer. Also enjoy all of the excellent products that are used during my visit, and available for purchase!

I tried a new salon yesterday for a manicure - as they were open on July 4th - see the picture for the results. Disappointing. I'll have to get it redone somewhere else. They lady that did my manicure wasn't friendly either. I'm not sure how she didn't notice that they needed buffing before she applied the polish!

I went there last week to get gel manicure and got pearl white nails and it turned yellow very next day and looked super ugly :( I was bummed since it didn't even last until Christmas. This is probably the worst gel manicure I have ever got it done.

I am staying at Siesta Key for 6 weeks and was in need of a haircut. I looked at several places online and read many reviews. I happened to be in Sarasota with my mom and saw this salon and went in to inquire about getting a dip powder manicure and a haircut. The manager explained the services they offered there and offered a business card for a hair stylist and a nail technician and said they both were very good. I was very hesitant to have a haircut in a new salon while on vacation, but I really needed one after not having one since early December.I called a couple of days later and was able to get an appointment with Em for my haircut and Shayla for my nails. Shayla did a terrific job on my nails and she took her time and was very professional. I am very pleased with the way my nails turned out.As far as the haircut, it was honestly the very best I have ever received. Seriously, Em was really fabulous and recommended a shorter style for me, and after a little discussion I agreed. I cannot say enough about Em except she was very meticulous and detailed....a perfectionist to detail, and I could just tell that she loved her profession and took great pride in her work. I truly love my haircut and have had many compliments since. I'm just disappointed that I would have to fly here to have her cut my hair on a consistent basis. I would highly recommend the Salon at the Jewel and specifically Em Samuels for a haircut and Shayla for a nail treatment. You will definitely not be disappointed with the result for the service they provide to you.

Getting annoyed and worried because my Google reviews keep going to other businesses!!The Salon at the Jewel is fantastic and cutting edge. Loan (LoAnn) has been my hairdresser for about 16 years now and I've never had a less than perfect result. Shayla gives the best mani-pedis in Sarasota.All the women here are great! Kim, Em have their own loyal following and they deserve it. (I hope I didn't forget anyone.) Thank you!
