Lying, manipulating and unprofessional! Debra, the owner, had the audacity to call me a week after services to tell me she “forgot to charge me for something and her manager told her so.” Manager? You mean your husband or the devil on your shoulder? You should be ashamed! For what you charged me, then manipulated even after I tipped you 20%…. I would NEVER recommend somebody that rips people of, takes advantage of you and then is unprofessional! What a joke!

Curly hair / deva type cut from Tarin is superb and perfect for my curls. This photo was taken a couple of weeks after the cut, when the curls really started to flourish from the layered cut. Love it - best curly hair cut I've ever had. GO if you have curly hair!

Today was the first time I visited the salon. I have been very concerned about Covid. After an email assuring that protocols are followed I made an appointment to have my hair colored and cut after 4 months.
The salon was clean, everyone was wearing masks and there was social distancing between chairs.
My stylist, Donna, was excellent. Her attention to detail was amazing. I left with perfect color and style, feeling like a new person.

Donna is amazing!
She takes her time in finding exactly the color and cut you desire and gives the expert opinion which I followed.

New to the area so I relied on Yelp to find a new hair stylist. John Gregory Salon had great reviews so I decided to give them a try. I'm so happy I did. I was assigned to Donna and I'm very pleased with the color and cut she provided. I already scheduled my next appointment.

I had my hair cut last week by Debra, the co owner. I showed her a picture, one I've used many times before with stylists. I wanted my hair cut two inches overall, with two inches also cut off the shorter layer. When I left the shop I couldn't really tell how it all looked as it was dried differently than the way I dry it. So, after washing and drying at home I saw how butchered my simple haircut was. The right layers are way shorter than the left layers, and the back was the even shorter than the sides. It made no sense at all. My husband, who has always complimented my hair, said out

I been going to JG on & off for over 5 years. I had a terrible experience today with the salon. Debra the owner was rude, condescending and truly doesn't know how to treat customers. A happy customer will be a returning customer. A dissatisfied customer will never go back and will tell everyone she knows to never step foot in your salon. It's your salon's loss for lots of future business....

I have curly hair and needed to find a stylist that knew how to cut it properly. I was lucky enough to find Deborah. She really listens and does a fabulous job. I get so many compliments on the style and color. If you want an experienced hair stylist this is the lady for you!

Debra was nice from the phone call to the final do.
I colored my hair at home because I'm new in town and tried a couple of places wasn't happy. But a disaster happened at home with the color, and Debra listened to me and she fixed it....I will be keeping these guys, everyone in there is nice and helpful, I felt like I was an old client which is wonderful. Thank you Debra....

Today I had my hair cut and colored by Donna Viola at John Gregory, I am extremely happy with the results! She spent extra time with me before we did anything to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted. I was way over due for a cut and color and now I feel like a new woman! Thanks again Donna!

Recently moved to Lakewood Ranch and saw the reviews for this salon. Donna had me come in for a consultation. We hit it off and I loved her ideas she had for my hair. I have been to her several times now and I am so glad I found Donna. My hair color is rich and my hair style is perfect for me. The salon is intimate but yet inviting.

Terrific salon...techniques, colors, expertise...outstanding service and personel. Prices are good. Looked all over for great hair care...found it here. From Houston but love to come to FL for cuts and colors. Terin and John have both cut my hair always percise.
You will be pleased. Terin is a color specialist.

I am new to this area, so I went online to research salons in my area. I looked through dozens of reviews, so I showed up with pretty high expectations, and very messed up hair.
Right away, Tarin welcomed me in and we started talking about solutions for my hair issues. She's absolutely one of the most educated and talented hair dressers I've ever been to in my life. I went in with a botched, uneven haircut, and a horrible hair color from another salon. She took the time to explain to me why my hair color was in need of some correction, and she kept the length in my hair, but completely

I read reviews on yelp and decided to try John Gregory salon. How fortunate for me that Tarin had an opening! I walked in needing color and left feeling like I just had the most amazing makeover. I needed a cut but didn't know what I wanted just self conscious about going too short. I left with the most flattering haircut I have ever had! Don't even think twice call and get an appt!!
