WHITE The Art of Hair

For most women, a new salon/spa is a nervous experience....Not at Lush! I was so pleased that the staff was so knowledgeable about current trends and about their product line. Danita is an excellent listener and offers insight into my color and cut with professionalism! I've also had the opportunity to have manicure services....which is very detail oriented and extremely professional. She has built a clientele because of her rapport and attention to detail.. I would recommend Lush to anyone looking for a dedicated and wonderful staff. more

I have been to and around some very expensive hair salons from many major cities, and I rate Lush as a 10 for service, great conversation, charm, sensitivity for my input, and much for the 'buck.' The compliments on my coloring have yet to end! They gave me exactly what I wanted given only a vague description. I used pay $$$$$ for my coloring at another location in Broad Ripple but Lush achieved the best result to date. Also, for eye-brows artfully and carefully done you must see Lexi! She has the most fabulous stories and provides make-up services for events and productions so call in for her if you're in need for that, as well! I truly felt that I was being worked on by a true artist. She is very charming and genuinely interested. Thanks, guys, for everything! more

I've tried several different treatments at Lush and was extremely happy with all of the services. But my favorite is the signature mani/pedi. This is not your average every day mani/pedi treatment!! The spa goes the extra mile here with a lot of nice little extra touches. You are treated to a nice warm towel, there are 4 different delicious scented lotions to choose from. The scrub they use for your legs & hands is nice plus I'm too lazy to do that at home. I love all of the Deborah Lippmann colors. I haven't seen that at any other spa in the city. My feet are baby soft when I leave the spa. It's the best! Pros: Deborah Lippmann nail polish more

Lush has been doing my hair for 2 years now--highlights, lowlights, and cuts. They are fabulous! My highlights look so natural, that people are often shocked when I tell them I get it colored. My hair was very damaged by my old stylist from Spalsh when I initially came to see them--bad color, dry, and brittle. They got my hair back to it's original dark blonde, and added funky lighter shades of blonde, that look terrific! Their hair cuts are great, too! Everytime my hair is done I can't stop staring in the mirror, and I always walk out feeling so pretty and happy. I have terrific hair, thanks to Lush! I highly suggest going and don't allow anyone else to touch your hair. more

Ok by far the best salon I have gone too. The Staff was amazing and polite. My hairdresser was amazing she did an awesome job with my cut and Color. Super impressed! The prices were so good too. It’s a very relaxing salon not loud at all and from what I saw every single client that left the salon seemed to have a very good relationship with their hairdresser and loved their hair. Impressive!!! I WILL BE BACK! Pros: WONDERFUL SALON Cons: smaller salon but very cute and sweet more

As Asian, I have the hardest time finding the hair stylist who can work with my hair in the US, I have to find and go to the best of the best salon to have my hair cut the way I want and not shed tears after the haircut. Well, I'm so happy to find Lush Salon, they did a wonder on my hair, it's absolutely amazing and love it so much... I get so much complement everywhere I go and people stop me and ask me where I go to get my haircut at! It's an amazing feeling. Gives me so much confident and I really want to thank them Sasha for the magic. Not only she is skilled, she took time to consult with me on what I want, thoroughly, and she took time to really make it happen, and explained what she is doing, and dried and styled my hair herself, which I found very surprising because usually the top hair stylist let the trainee do the drying and styling. She explained and taught me step by step on how to style the hair, so that I can recreate what she did at home, gave me all kinds of tips and advice. She was amazing! And she'd promised me to teach me how to style my hair differently next time I visit her, so I can have variation. I am really looking forward to visiting her again and get another great advice on different hair arrangement I can do with the same hair style. I highly recommend her to any picky, hard-to-please ladies who cares about her hair as much as I do. Thank you!! =) more

As I walked through the parking lot towards Marsh and a car passed in front of me. Suddenly, the driver's window rolls down and a thirty to forty-something gal sticks her head out the window. "I just had to tell you how great your haircut is, it really suits you!? she says, smiling. Well, after the initial shock that someone would actually go to the lengths she did to make that comment, I smiled back and thanked her. Then, I thought, "Geez, she said that and my next appointment with Lush is in another five days!" I received a comment from a complete stranger (in a parking lot no less), and it had been nine weeks since my last cut. I've been going to Lush for close to a year now, they have been working with me on a style (from a picture) and transitioning my short hair to a medium length. Based on the comment I received from this gal, I'd say it has been well worth our efforts! Wouldn't go to anyone else Pros: Great cuts that last! Great color work! more

I have known Danita for almost a decade and I can't recommend her enough. If you have never consulted someone about your hair loss and are nervous about doing so - see Danita. She will make you feel at ease. If you are a member of a "hair club" and are dissatisfied with the quality their service - see Danita. She will not try to sell you products or services you do not need. Rather she will give you expert advice as to what the best solution to your particular problem. And not only is she an expert on all forms of hair loss; she is an expert stylist as well. Recently I went to a wedding and gave her carte blanche to do whatever she wanted with my hair. I received numerous compliments at the wedding and could not have been more pleased. more

I have been going to Danita at LUSH for 4 years for highlights. She is quite simply the best. I first heard about her through a friend who was a publicist for several high profile celebrities. I asked her for a recommendation and I've been seeing Danita ever since. I can honestly say I have the most natural looking highlights ever! She does this process called balayage which doesn't require any foils--she just paints it on and instead of looking like I just had my hair colored, I look like I just got back from a vacation at the beach. The color lasts which means fewer trips to the salon which I actually wouldn't mind since she makes the whole experience fun! She's just really down to earth and extremely talented. She is quite simply the best hair colorist period. It really doesn't get any better! Pros: clean, friendly, professional, late appointments!! Cons: none! more

I was desperately in need for a complete hair transformation and I'm so glad I found this salon! The atmosphere was fun and relaxed, the service was wonderful, and my hair looked better than it had ever looked before. The prices are high, but you definitely get what you pay for. It was worth every bit! Pros: scalp massage, drinks, atmosphere more

Lush Salon has professional - well-educated hair stylists in the heart of Indy - the stylists provide great educational tips to clients teaching them how to make hair look its best. They offer wonderful hair and scalp treatments and the salon has one of the top colorists in Indiana. They are dedicated and welcoming to all clients that walk through the door ? The owners are also very active members of the neighborhood which adds to the culture and sophistication of the salon. As someone who has had my hair cut in some of the top-rated salons in New York and Chicago - I can honestly say I have never been disappointed. I highly recommend the salon. more

I LOVE this salon. Danita is an amazing talent- she has assembled an energetic, service oriented team and created a soothing, trendy setting. They took the time to really listen to what I wanted and to offer thoughtful advice. The result was perfect. My hair looks and feels amazing! She also did a consultation on my hair for extensions. After she did my extensions and I felt like a new women. She is very educated and passionate about her work and her staff. She is very selective on experience and attitude at her salon. She did a great job and was very sweet and honest on what I should do with my hair. She is the owner and is extremely intelligent on both products and hair. more

I had a great experience at Lush as well. I had a last minute emergency right before my wedding day. My regular gal had to cancel on me because she became ill and I ended up going to Lush Salon. They were able to get me in that day and did a great job on. Everyone was friendly and the atmosphere was clean and professional. I've decided to go back from here on out! more

Let me count the ways?. This hair stylist/ color artist has the most amazing talent to work your hair into a work of art. I actually left my hairdresser after 4 years to go to Danita after I upset mine by asking for a style he wasn?t happy doing. The first thing she did was listen to me. What a concept! Then she made some suggestions based on what she heard, it was interesting to sit with her for my consul first, because she heard what I really wanted, which was a cut and color that was original, easy to manage and that did not make me look like I was trying to be 16 ( I am over 40). I now have a work of art and proudly display my ?get ready in 5 min? and look fabulous hair cut color and style. If your stylist is still telling YOU how you like your hair, come on over to Danita?s salon, she will actually listen to you :) Pros: Non Toxic and Pure Organic Color Work more

I tried Lush after reading the other reviews on Cityscape and I am SOOOO glad I did! She gave me a great cut and even did my eyebrows. She was easy to talk to; none of those uncomfortable silences there can sometimes be with a stylist. When I went back to get highlights, she listened to what I wanted and made suggestions when I asked. When I left, I looked and felt like the woman my husband married, not like the tired mom I was starting to see in the mirror. They also did my hair for a formal function and it was GORGEOUS! I have gotten so many compliments!!! I'm even sending my mom to her... You all are outstanding! Pros: Service is outstanding; comfortable atmosphere without losing professionalism. Cons: I can't even think of one more

I have always been very choosy when it comes to hair care and dont just walk-in to any random hair salon unless I've done my research and read through reviews/testimonials about the place. And this salon I could definitely say is worth going to because their team of experts will really take care of your hair. I had my hair straightened and colored and I am beyond satisfied with the result. Its been 4 months now and my hair still straight and smooth. And today I'm coming back to get a hair cut and color. So to anyone who's new to the area, like me who's very skeptical about where to go, you?ll never regret trying out Lush Salon - the Best in Indy. more

I found a terrific stylist, Jenna, at Lush. I had two terrific haircuts from her, she was nice, down to earth and friendly. Then suddenly she left (read all the other negative reviews). Lush gave me no information on where she went. I was notified only a few days before my appt and they gave me some young girl who had no clue how to cut straight hair. It was all lopsided when she was done. A few weeks later I went to another salon to get it repaired. The owner called me and tried to get me to come in to Lush for repair but I was really not interested. I wonder why they cannot keep their good stylists or at least let the stylists take their clients with them. I loved Jenna. If anyone knows where she is, I want to know, Lush was not giving me any info. Pros: none Cons: good stylists seem to vanish overnight. They cannot keep their staff. more

I've been to this salon once for a cut and color and just a week or so afterwards my color faded A LOT!! By the time I reached my second appointment the color was completely out. But that is just one problem...a major one if that. I was on my way to my second appointment and one of the highways was closed due to an accident. I called the salon and told them I'm running a bit behind and I'm going to take a different route but no worries, I'm on my way. A few minutes later I get a call from the owner and boy was she the most classless, untactful, unprofessional woman I have ever dealt with. I told her I was lost and I told her what crossroad I was at and instead of asking if I needed help in getting to the salon (she knew I was not from the area) she said if I don't get there very soon my appointment will be cancelled and I will have to pay for the services. She said this is because they have to be respectful of the next client's appointment....(Strange considering the one and only time I was there I had to wait 30 minutes). So I asked if I can be worked in somehow and she said, "WE ARE BOOKED, IT'S THE HOLIDAYS"! So here I was lost in Indianapolis and my GPS kept taking me in circles and she didn't offer help or compassion just a cold "you sound screwed" attitude. What a class act! I have never been talked to the way this woman talked to me. I work with business owners everyday and none of them are as classless and clueless as her. She cannot sustain a business treating people the way she does. Her turnover rate has to keep her up at night and the stress of hiring and firing must be adding years to this woman. Her daughter has recently left the salon as well so I'm not sure who this Danita lady will find that will be loyal to her and her salon. If you are looking for a salon obviously this one has enough bad reviews for you to just STAY AWAY!! If you are looking for top salons in the area look at Villagio, Trichology Salon and Splash. hair needs! Cons: Staff, quality of hair services more

I have had bad hair coloring experiences with my former salon so I was ready for a change and went online and searched and read all the great comments about Lush Salon. I had a very positive first time experience with this salon and will be a repeat customer provided they don't get too expensive. The staff is friendly and helpful and not snobs at all. The staff offered hot tea and there was homebaked goodies! Danita was in the salon on my first visit and greeted me personally and was constantly checking on her clients making sure everything is good. She is very hands on and attentive, and interacts with her clients. My stylist was patient and listened to my concerns and colored my hair a natural dark brown. After my visit a week later Danita personally called to ask if I had any concerns or questions. Talk about great follow-up! Pros: Casual salon. Great service, ease of making appointments, friendly sfaff, experienced stylists, good follow-up Cons: parking can be tricky when Bonefish restaurant nextdoor is busy at night more

Let me start by saying that I never write reviews,however I felt like this one had to be put out there. I haven"t been back to lush since my stylist for almost 2 years had suddenly disappeared . Since I had been going there for her and I had seen the other stylist work and read the actual real ( all negative) reviews I decided not to risk it going back! I missed her and my hair did as well that was my only reason ever to continue going there! Anyway, I went to get my regular mani/pedi appointment at VILLAGGIO in giest where I had been going since they opened and to my surprise I also found my old stylist! AMANDA PIPER! I was sooo relieved!! It had almost been a year!! So for those of you out there that were also missing her I just wanted to give you a heads up! Because if you were like me and completely lost without her lush was NEVER going to tell you were she went!! I hope this helps!! I could help but spread this wonderful news so close to Christmas!! Happy Holidays!!..... I WROTE THIS BACK IN DECEMBER AND FELT OBLIGATED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT AMANDA IS NOW AT SKINNERS IN BROAD RIPPLE. WHICH IS SOOO MUCH CLOSER NOW! THANKS!! Pros: The only pro is that I found Amanda Piper Cons: Just about everything, but they do carry Kerastase.. but so does Villaggio! more
