Great service, great color!. Being new to the area, I tried numerous salons and stylists and was extremely disappointed in the color and cuts I received. Having asked a friend with great looking color and styling where she goes, she said Barbara Forgione Salon.

I made an appointment, tried it and will never go anywhere else again. Peggy provides a complete consultation, really listens to what you want and gives it to you. I am very pleased with the precision and quality of the haircuts and absolutely love how natural and beautiful highlights are.

I highly recommend Peggy and all the staff at Barbara Forgione.

Unprofessional. I had an appointment with Barbara for High lites. It was my first time in and I was rudely awakened by pepto bismol tacky pink walls, Dusty furntiture, unswept hair everywhere, loud talking, stylists and even Barbara on their cell phones right in front of other clients! I told Barbara that I wanted high lites that were not orange or red toned. She then told me she was going to the back to mix up then I see her in the mirror on the computer searching the internet, it was atleast about ten minutes before she went to the back to mix the color. The whole application process was so uncomfortable, her phone kept going off, she was yelling at her staff across the small cluttered salon, and she just gave off the worst energy, I could not wait for it to be over. When it was time to be rinsed I had to wait even longer to be rinsed out since they only have 2 sinks for 5 stylists. She had another girl rinse me and put a glaze on, which I found out later costed me $30, along with having to pay for a blowdry!!! All and all my hair came out an orange tone which she told me was warm not orange. I even overheard her insulting an existing client and telling her how bad her hair was and how florescent it was! It cost me an arm and a leg and the experience and hair color was a disaster. Awful experience and one of the most unprofessional salons I have ever been in.

BEST color and cut I have ever received. I am from Miami and recently moved to the Tampa area in search of a new hair salon. Obviously coming from a city with no shortage of stylists, it was nerve racking to transition over to a new place. Thank goodness I found Vicky at the Barbara Forgione Salon because she has been my beauty savior!!!

I first went to a different salon only bc it was close to my house, and the girl who did my color completely messed it up. Through searching on the internet I managed to find Barbara Forgione Salon and get linked up with Vicky over a year ago... it was the best thing to have happened. She not only fixed the disaster color job from the previous salon, but has colored my hair with perfection every visit since! She is absolutely fabulous and I have referred her to several of my friends in the area who have all been equally as impressed.

I'm also petrified of letting anyone cut my hair and keep it very long. I finally asked Vicky to cut and style it and have gotten more compliments on my hair after she cut it then ever before. This girl rocks, and if you need a stylist, absolutely get in with her. I drive 45 minutes to see her and it is SO worth it!

Amazing!. I had gone to another salon to darken my blonde hair. I told him "no black, no burgandy, just med auburn". I walked out with black hair with burgandy undertones. HORRIBLE!!! I cried for 2 days straight. I was afraid to ask him to fix my hair, so I looked elsewhere. I found Vicky at this salon. She was not ony very sympathetic, she was extremely knowledgeable about hair color. Although she could not completley remove the color w/o frying it, she highlighted it in a way tht it is now a beautiful rich chocolate brown. I wish I had gone to her first, I am sure I would have gotten what I wanted to begin with. GO TO THIS SALON! I have never had this level of service, and their prices are more than reasonable.
