I have been a client of Mary’s for probably around two years now and followed when she switched to Red Feather. I love supporting local and small businesses and that is what you get with both Mary and Red Feather. I have always had a wonderful experience with my appointments, if I need to reschedule, asking questions about my coloring and the process of color. I also regularly change what I do with my hair and Mary will always guide me to make sure my hair stays healthy and this is the healthiest its ever been - even while going from dark brown to blonde. If I’m not in my own conversation with Mary, I have heard conversations between Jen or other stylists with their clients. They are professional and knowledgeable and care about how they respond in educating clients. I love the hair magic they make and the family feel of the salon and business. Will always recommend.

I visited Red Feather salon after finding them on Instagram. I hadnt had a haircut since November 2019, and since then my old stylist (at a different salon) had retired. I booked an appointment with Emily for a haircut, full balayage, and a vivid color, and Im SO glad I did.First of all, Red Feather is incredibly COVID-conscious, which was greatly appreciated. They asked me to wash my hands when I arrived, their staff (and all clients) were properly masked the entire time, and I watched them sanitize chairs between clients (which they have a great system for). The salon itself is beautiful and comfortable.Emily is also absolutely fantastic. I was nervous about getting started with a new stylist (especially since it had been so long since my hair was cut/styled) but she was soothing, asked great questions, and most importantly, did a fantastic job. It hasnt even been 24 hours since I left the salon and Ive already gotten countless compliments on my hair. I will absolutely be back! Im so glad I found this salon.

Jen (owner) is a true magician when it comes to hair! I have never dyed my hair before and I was really nervous about having my hair bleached. She was patient and listened to my concerns and we discussed all of my different options. She is a very personalble person. Jen and her staff are very nice and an ease to be around. During the dying process and afterwards she made sure I knew how to maintain, care for and the dos and donts to make sure my hair keeps its vibrant color the longest. Her salon chairs are some of the most comfortable chairs I have sat in. She was very conscious about cleanliness and safety. Whether this is the first time you are getting your hair dyed or looking for a rockstar stylist, this is by far the best salon in Sarasota! I highly recommend to anyone!

I am so happy I found this salon. Jen and Emily are both highly skilled and very kind people (as is the rest of the team!). They took my hair from brown to pink, back to brown, and gave it the best haircut I’ve had in my life. A haircut is not something I thought I’d ever be applauding this much, but it REALLY changed how I felt about my hair and gave my style a refresher. They are thorough in asking what exactly it is you want, are sensitive to your time, and are very fair in price. I’ve had 3 sessions with them so far, and have 2 scheduled for this fall. I’ve never had my hair appointments on a schedule like this, but they make me want to. Money and time well spent.

I had such a great experience while getting my haircut with Jen! I was always so nervous going into hair appointments, Jen helped me feel so comfortable! She really understood what I was wanting, and achieved it amazingly!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would recommend red feather salon to anyone!

Jen is INCREDIBLE. I just left and had to leave a review immediately. She is so educated, helpful and taught me so much about my hair while giving me the best haircut i’ve ever had!! I didn’t know it was possible for my hair to feel as good as it does right now. I will absolutely be back for more pampering in the future, thank you so much!!

Emily was very thorough with her consultation of my hair. She asked a ton of questions about what my hair was like, what types of products I used, how often I washed my hair, how often I used products, etc. She knew my hair intimately before she even washed it. Then we went to the washing basin where she layered me up and massaged my scalp until I practically cried from gratitude.After my hair was clean and I was all ookie inside, we discussed how I wanted my hair cut. She listened very closely, clarifying parts she was unsure about, and as soon as she felt comfortable that she knew what I wanted, she began the process of turning my hair into exactly what I had asked for.One hour later, I put my glasses on to see exactly what I wanted to see. She listened to exactly what I said I wanted. 💯 Happy.EDIT: A month later and Im still thrilled with my hair. Thats the kind of cut I like. See photo.

I am so happy that I found this salon! Emily is my stylist and she does a fantastic job. I was nervous when I decided to go from my red hair to a vivid and she knocked it out of the park! We had a consultation before starting my service and she explained the entire process and I felt comfortable with everything she was recommending. Ive done 2 different colors with her and both times shes used my inspiration photos and matched it perfectly. Anytime Im in the salon, I also love listening to Jen talk color with her clients. I feel that everyone at the salon does a great job of discussing with clients the vision they have for their hair and making sure they do their best to achieve the results wanted. I drive 45 minutes for this salon and will continue to do so! They do a great job with fun mermaid colors!

I had a great experience at the salon. Jen took care of me and she did a wonderful job. I am very happy with my haircut!! Before she even touched my hair we had a full conversation as to what I was looking to have done, what kind of maintenance level I wanted to deal with along with several other hair questions. It was a very pleasant experience from start to finish. You can tell that she really does take pride and enjoys what she does. Throughout the entire hair cutting process she gave me lots of tips and tricks for styling and maintaining my hair. I felt like I was in a classroom, but in a good way! If you want a stylist that cares about your input and wants to make you look and feel great then this is the salon that you should go to!

I’ve been seeing Emily for a few years now and I wouldn’t trust anyone but her with my hair! I have extremely thick and course hair, so I have always had a hard time finding hairstylists. I recently got some highlights, and Emily did an amazing job. I have never felt confident about my hair until I started seeing Emily. And now it’s my favorite feature about myself! Also, the salon is such a good vibe, with incredible women and people supporting and accepting one another! 🌈❤️✨

Jenn is the most educated colorist & stylist Ive ever met. She knows how everything will interact scientifically, which amazes me to this day. She asks questions each time to make sure your color is perfect and just how you want it. Usually this is an ongoing process but she nailed it the first time I went. She took the time to consult over the phone before my first visit too. A great atmosphere of employees who truly enjoy what theyre doing and who they work with. Youll leave with great hair and new friends. I highly recommend Jenn for her incredible knowledge and ability to apply that knowledge to all aspects of coloring, cutting and styling. Ive truly never met a stylist who understood the science behind coloring. Its fascinating to watch and listen to her explain what shes doing and why. Very passionate about what she does, meticulous, and wont let you leave unless youre happy & 100% satisfied. Definitely recommend her and her fabulous staff!

Top notch! First time at the Red Feather Salon and I will be returning! The salon itself is gorgeous, and the ambiance was great. Jen is a dedicated stylist who did an amazing job on my hair. I could tell she put a lot of care and effort into her work and the results were outstanding. I always dread having to find a new stylist, but this experience was so good I had to share!!

Vagaro wouldn’t let me leave a review on there, so to google i go! i just had to come and leave a review for jen!i came in for a cut and consult as a new client, and she made me feel so comfortable, and really listened to what i wanted. full of information, and with the skills to back it up! i WISH i was doing color, because jen would be my first option! for now, we’ll keep up with the shaggy pixie mullet we created today; i’m in love!thank you jen!!!

I absolutely love Mary. She has been cutting and coloring my hair for years upon years. When I first moved here, I could not find a stylist who understood my hair and my style goals. She has for years and years exceeded my expectations. I recently decided I wanted a change after many years. I went from long mid back hair to a shoulder lob and then we went honey blonde from my very dark brown natural hair. I LOVE IT 🥰. Thank you Mary for always exceeding my expectations.

I have been a client of Jen’s for years now. There aren’t enough positive words for me to use to describe my experiences or the end products of those experiences. We’ve done a boring single color. We’ve cut and highlighted. We’ve painted fun and exciting colors in my hair. Jen is a master of her craft and only brings on stylist who share the same level of passion for hair as she does. The level of knowledge about hair that lives in that salon is out of this world. From the chemical reaction of mixing colors to cutting certain angles to achieve specific styles to going above and beyond to personally make sure the shampoo chairs are comfortable for clients, no detail is too small. Everyone is very warm and welcoming and it just feels like home. You can open up about anything and everything with not only the stylists, but sometimes the other clients in the salon. You can truly tell when someone is proud of where they work or the business they own, and you can feel by the bright light these stylists emit that their home is something special.

Red feather salon is the best salon in the Sarasota area! Jen, the owner is a true professional...using quality products and truly caring about what you want for your hair! She is a professional accretted colorist, which does make a difference with colored blonde hair. Between the sun, and the water on Florida! You get what you pay for at the Red Feather Salon....I travel over 1 hour to Sarasota From my home. Its worth the trip!

Absolutely love getting my hair done by Jen! ♡ I never have to wait long to get an appointment and she walks me through every step of my hair design to make sure I leave feeling as beautiful as possible. This last appointment I also got an amazing head massage during my shampoo by Emily!

Review 18 (2023-05-25 - Rating: 5)
Just a note to say what a great experience I had and how much I love my hair. It’s perfect, and it’s kinda weird, and it is EXACTLY what I wanted. Mary was so kind and knowledgeable and fun. 10/10 would recommend. My texture has a big attitude so I came in natural and the cut falls perfectly for my moody do.

I want to take the time to leave a review for this GEM of a place.I am a new mom and needed something fun and refreshing for my hair. As soon as I sat in Jens chair I felt right at home. Jens knowledge of her profession mixed with her caring attitude is something that is extremely hard to find ANYWHERE. We did a fun cut and red melt to my hair and it turned out amazing!! .I want to also take the time to acknowledge the other girls working there. The shampooing and deep conditioning treatment was the best Ive ever had! Deff reccomend ! So relaxing ! These girls put in the work to keep every customer happy and it shows!The salon itself is so beautiful !If you are looking for a high quality salon this is the one!!!!

I can’t praise these ladies enough! I went in on 4/1 for a cut and consult, then again on 4/6 for the color, both appointments were with Mary. All of the stylists are so attentive and spend time getting to know your individual concerns/routines/wants/needs in order to completely tailor their services for you. For the first time in my life I am completely in love with the services I’ve been provided and armed with the proper knowledge to actually care for and style my hair in a way that it looks just as good as the moment I left the chair EVERY SINGLE DAY! The salon is beautiful, clean, and comfortable and their service is unparalleled. 10 out of 10, highly recommend!

The Red Feather Salon crew is so welcoming and talented! As someone with short hair, I can vouch that they do an equally amazing job with short hair as they do with long hair. They’re also super queer friendly which made me feel very comfortable. Red Feather is stylish, clean, and safe. Can’t recommend them enough!

Jen is an absolutely amazing stylist and color genius! I fly across the ocean to have her do my hair. Her salon is always a joy to visit.

Review 23 (2022-09-05 - Rating: 5)
I love coming here for my curly hair. I went pixie short and am now trying to regrow it down to my waist. Emily really listens and gives me honest opinions for the style Im trying to achieve. I love that they are all laid-back, super inclusive, and always fun. Youll feel right at home. ♡

Review 24 (2021-06-04 - Rating: 5)
Jen (owner) and her staff are amazing! The salon is impeccably clean, their attention to the client is on point, and the banter while in the chair is entertaining. I especially appreciate learning about my hair and the processes used on it to assist me when I’m styling it myself. I highly recommend Red Feather Salon!

Review 25 (2021-04-28 - Rating: 5)
I love Red Feather Salon! I always walk out of there feeling amazing, not only because theyve made my hair beautiful, but the stylists are fun, professional, and friendly. Additionally, in this time of Covid, they maintain a strictly cleaned and sanitized space with both staff and patrons masked. I love visiting the talented and caring folks here, whether its for a simple haircut or a wild new hair color. :)

Review 26 (2021-07-14 - Rating: 5)
I had my first appointment here in the last week and Emily/Jen were nothing short of amazing! The intake process to learn about what you want was very thorough and informative throughout the process. I cant say Ive had that experience anywhere Ive ever been. Their attention to detail and really getting to understand what you want is unmatched. I love how my color and style turned out and cant wait to go back again!

Ive had the fortune of working with Red Feather Salon in multiple capacities. From business-to-business transactions as well as having my hair done several times by the incredibly skilled owner, Jen!Red Feather Salon is the place to go if youre looking for service thats above and beyond the norm. They delve into the science of your hair to cater your services specifically to you, they have remained exceedingly safe during the time of COVID-19, and the whole team is consistently working (and succeeding) to make Red Feather the gold standard of salons in Sarasota.From a professional-to-professional stand point, they are wonderful to work with as well. Payments are always on time, scheduling is a breeze, and feedback is open and honest.The space exudes beauty and uniqueness from the moment you walk in. If you go there, say Hi! to Socrates for me and check out that bathroom. :)

Jen was absolutely wonderful. She was non opinionated , got down to the business of what she saw my hair needed( a good brush!)Her approach to cutting hair is science and art combined. Her prices are very fair. She is genuine and that is priceless in the hair business.

I always have a fantastic experience at Red Feather Salon! I have gone to both Jen and Emily and have always loved my results. They are expert colorists and I always walk away loving my hair.

Review 30 (2019-03-22 - Rating: 5)
Jen did a great job and really cares about my hair and wants the color to have the most success. She educated me on what to do with it rather than others who have just taken my money and moved on. I left with a much better understanding of my hair.

Review 31 (2021-07-06 - Rating: 5)
I am so happy. The color is beautiful, the cut is perfect, the plan for the future of my hair was discussed and we are on the same page. Jen is clear and communicative about the how’s and why’s of hair and it makes one feel comfortable and in good hands. I had a very pleasant time in her chair.

Review 32 (2021-10-26 - Rating: 5)
Mary took the time to find out what I did not like about my current hair, what I would like to have as my haircut. How much time I wanted to spend styling every day, and made me feel very comfortable. The end result haircut is perfect. So glad I found this salon... and Mary.

Review 33 (2020-02-29 - Rating: 5)
Jen radiates authenticity and passion while also creating a fun, comfortable and relaxed experience peppered with some excellent advice that made sense for me and my hair. I walked away feeling refreshed, beautiful and confident with my new style! I cannot wait to come back!

The ladies at Red Feather Salon are amazing. I see Jenn and love her work. She really listens and delivers exactly what you want! Highly recommend if you want a great stylist!

Review 38 (2019-01-20 - Rating: 5)
Wonderfully inviting and indulgent experience. The stylist was really focused on helping me get exactly the haircut and color that makes me feel most beautiful. There is a real focus on education; I learned exactly what to do to reproduce the style I walked out the door with. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough.
