BUNCH OF PHONIES

by poledancer101

After reading the reviews posted on this site it's plain to see that these comments are as fabricated as his list of talents. One would think that as a salon voted '"BEST OF" a salon of this caliber would not be breaking womens hair off by the handfuls & making it look like spider webs. Handfuls of hair breaking off? You would have to be a "MENTALLY OUT TO LUNCH" to go to this salon. And the "JUNIOR VARSITY" haircuts that are showcased as high fashion on his website are the same as JCPenny give my 10 yr. old daughter, what a joke. With so many other talented color salons in orlando I will be going elsewhere. Thank you city search for putting the truth out there.

• Pros: Taking my money elsewhere
• Cons: my name is as fake as his list of talents & credentials

NEVER AGAIN BEWARE

by sandyc

I did ALL the reseach,reviews and I do LOOK AFTER MY HAIR with the best products! Joseph is on his own agenda and was not honest with me. I had asked he if there was ANY chance of breakage I was fine with low lights being added and leave my hair, as is. I made it very clear I was very concerned about the condition and NOT about reaching a "GOAL". Well, I was white blond with not a stich of brass and the pay off was HANDFULS OF HAIR BREAKING OFF! When I voiced my concerns I was told it should stop soon!!!! I was not happy and he knew it. I called back to find out exactly what product was used and was told 60 v peroxcide! You cannot even buy this in North America because its illegal! Ya there is not doubt Joseph can get a black Panther blond and bald!!!! So if yo want blond he's the man.

• Cons: HE NEVER LISTENED

My hair looks FABULOUS!

by Lisaaaa

When I first got home my boy friend couldn't stop commenting on how incredible my hair looks. The next day at work was the same. I went out last night with my friends and it was the same!

I never write reviews because I do so much writing at work, but after about the 20th compliment, I felt I had to share my exuberance with everyone.

I love my hair! I've never had reactions like this before. I look like a new person. Best part is how it makes me feel. I feel very glamorous. I love my hair!!

• Pros: Best colorist anywhere, great value, private setting
• Cons: NONE

Glamourous blonde hair! I love it!!!

by Sophiee

I am a make up artist and became familiar with Joseph through other artists that have worked with him on photo shoots.

I went to his new professional web site and I was so impressed with his work that I made an appointment. I am soooooo glad that I did. To say that the results exceeded my wildest expectations is an understatement. My hair looks like the models I have worked on. I've never had my hair look so incredible EVER!

My blonde looks incredible. No one will ever know that it isn't my natural color. The hair it's self is amazingly silky and shiny. I had a NANO treatment which restores the condition. I highly recommend both Joseph and the Nano treatments.

Thank you Joseph! You are amazing!

Sophie

• Pros: Joseph is incredible! Best hair color I've ever had!
• Cons: NONE

If you want the best-- you want color by Joseph

by Bellle

After getting my hair done by Joseph I wanted to share my experience with everyone. I'm not a big blogger and rarely have the time to write reviews. Joseph is special. He's an extremely knowledgeable and talented artist. I feel fortunate to have discovered him and will only trust my hair to him.

I had my mind made up as to what I was going to write until I read the disdainful review and thought to myself, "Who is this person? How could they have anything bad to say about Joseph?" I have worked in customer service for 30 years and I knew "who this person was" and "How they could speak such bile" because these people are the customers that are never satisfied with any service. I've seen them over the years. As a provider they are always difficult to work with and never happy with anyone's services. Joseph, I'm sorry they happened into your chair.

First: I've been to the most exclusive salons from Boston to Miami. I've paid top dollar by the best in the swankiest salons. Can I be honest? I've never felt my money was well spent on a snobby waiffish 20 year old receptionist who looked down their nose at us mere mortals. I've followed Joseph from salon to salon and I'll be honest: I like when I call and reach him for an appointment. I get scheduled for what I need not by an over zealous receptionist who under schedules my appointment slot because she doesn't know what the job entails.

Second: I have never found Joseph to be rude or gruff to anyone. He's fun, yet professional and never pretentious (I hated those types of salons).

Third and most importantly: Joseph is a truly, gifted, knowledgeable and talented artist. I would change doctors before giving him up.

When I first discovered him my hair was ruined from a horribly over processed job done by one of those snobbish, high end salons. I truly thought the only recourse for my baby fine hair was to cut it to about 2 inches and wait to grow. I was horrified. Much to my amazement my hair was beauitfully restored. The texture was silky and smooth. I didn't have to cut it off and the blonde color was spectacular. I have seen Joseph for years and cherish him as an individual and artist.

I feel offended at the previous reviews because they are wrong. I know the type of customer who wrote it and their discontentment is not a reflection on Joseph. I stand strong in my recommendation that Joseph is special and if you are fortunate enough to work with him, you will understand what I mean.

Joseph you are the best and I look forward to being your customer for many, many years. Thank you for all the consistently beautiful work you have provided me over the past years.

• Pros: Joseph is the Best
• Cons: There are none

What a Joke!!

by ljohncrna

I made an appointment for a color correction after reading about Kellner on Cotysearch. When I called the salon I was surprised to hear a very grumpy man answer the phone without even stating the name of the salon. I wondered what had happened to his receptionist?? I made the appointment for two days later at 10AM. The day before the appointment the same man (Kellner) called me to confirm for 9AM the next day. This was an hour earlier than we had agreed to but I said okay I will be there at 9AM.

The morning of the appointment a very rude Mr. Kellner called to cancel me. He said he did not remember reaching me the night before by phone and removed me from his appointment schedule because he was unable to reach me to confirm.

I suggest he hires a receptionist to handle these things for him. I would advise you to go anywhere other than this thoroughly unprofessional and rude salon!!

• Pros: None
• Cons: Rude and Unprofessional

DO NOT GO TO Joseph Kellner!!!!!

by Kspeed

I researched him through this site looking for a good colorist to correct my blond hair. He was VERY brash to begin with, but ignored it because I wanted the best. He didnt go over what he was going to do with my color (I was correcting my blond) and just began on my hair. I wasnt feeling so concered because he was supposed to be the best.

It wasnt until his assistant was washing out the deep conditioning treatment that I began to wonder about breakage...MY HAIR WAS FALLING OUT BY THE HANDFULLS!!!!!! LITTERALLY! Handfulls of hair! I was tearing up and shaking! He was finishing up with another client, so I waited patiently to speak with him about what we were gonna do to fix this. I am NOT that girl who makes a fuss of anything!!!!! So it is out of character for me to get upset, but this was an exception!

I finally get back in his chair and told him I was freking out a little about the breakage...HE THEN TOLD ME I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, THAT I DONT TAKE CARE OF MY HAIR, AND THAT I NEEDED TO LEAVE HIS SALON! He was literally kicking me out of his salon! I said that a little sympothy would go a long way and continued to blame me for what HE DID. I was FLOORED! I asked him if he could at least cut it so it would stop breaking..and he SAID NO. I still had WET HAIR and was crying...he walked me to the front door and said..."PLEASE LEAVE, you dont take care of your hair". WHAT?? arent you the professional???? I then proceeded to have a panic attack in the parking lot in my car. I now have to cut my long hair SHORT to fix it because of how much hair has fallen out. I will be taking him to small claims court...not for how BAD he messed up on my hair, but how BAD he treated me..acting like it was my fault that HE messed up.

• Pros: NONE...please read this review...he doesnt deserve a star
• Cons: He doesnt know how to do blonds...

Amazing Technique & Style

by TravelChic

My visit to Josephs Salon was a long time coming. I had seen just about every terrible hairdresser in Orlando. Finally I decided to log on to City Search, do my research and find a hairdresser that would allow me to leave the salon a satisfied customer. Upon walking in I felt very welcomed. Joseph listened to my past hair traumas and came up with a vision which came to life on my locks. I have had about four appointments since and left each time feeling gorgeous. My hair has never been so vibrant and healthy. I get complements on the cut and color at least once a day. If you've been looking for the right style, look no further...make an appointment today I promise you won't be disappointed.

• Pros: Cut & Color
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?

BEST HAIR COLORIST IN ORLANDO!!!!!!!

by Fashionismylife

I am an international model, and I have to have my hair perfect at all times. I fly back and forth between Asia and Florida doing photo shoot after photoshoot. Every time I am here, I have to see Joseph! He really listens to my vision for my hair, and does exactly what I want!

I even have him flown out a few times in Tokyo and Miami, because I didn't trust anyone to do my hair but Joseph!

When you walk into his room, you can see his past clientele, and it sets the newer clients at ease, because they know they are in the right place! All over his walls are photographs of model after model, and even some photos of Ms. Universe pagent he did the hair for! He really knows his stuff! I highly reccommend Joseph Kellner Salon as THE salon to go to in Orlando!

• Pros: COLOR!!!!!
