I finally found my stylist!

by critta2 at Citysearch

Having moved to Baltimore just over a year ago I had the hardest time trying to find someone that could give me a proper haircut and color. Well, I happened to be shopping at Safeway and I just happened to see this place - and now, as long I'm living nearby - this is my place! Everyone there is helpful and nice. They even gave me some wine while I was waiting for my color to set. After a long day of work I couldn't have been more pleased. The prices are to be expected, not cheap but not too expensive. Either way, you really get what you pay for here.

• Pros: Great location and atmosphere
• Cons: I was convinced to spend $26/bottle on shampoo.. BUT I do love it and I'll buy it again.

Class

by Vicky Thompson at Citysearch

It is hard to find a place where you can go and feel welcome at all times. The atmosphere is very upbeat and positive, but yet you feel relaxed and at home when you are there. Choose a style, cut, color and/or person, if necessary (but not, because they all know what they are doing), and leave feeling and looking like a million dollars!

In this day and age, the economy, you want to have something to look forward too, and someone and something to make you feel your very best and BROCATOS is the place.

I attribute all of the wonderful contributions to Ellen. She is obviously on top of her game, knows how to run a business, treats her employees as she would like to be treated and stays on top of the latest trends and may set some of her own, her and her staff. NO BETTER PLACE TO GET PAMPERED!

• Pros: Most Knowledgable and Classiest Hair Salon
• Cons: None

A stlylist I can't live without

by Halo6273 at Citysearch

It has taken me years to finally find someone I trust completely to cut & color my hair! Diana is amazing! She communicates well and I am always confident she understands what I want. I always used to be nervous how my hair would look every time I got a cut, not anymore. She offers friendly tips for helping me keep my hair healthy and helping me grow it out. I would be lost without her.

• Pros: Friendly atmosphere and free parking

pay a visit to Mimi at Brocato's, the queen of hair colour

by benams at Citysearch

If you want beautiful hair colour, you must ask for Mimi at Brocato's Studio. The atmosphere is supremely relaxing. Mimi is charming and interested; she is thorough and listens and takes into account skin tone and face shape. She is happy only if you are with your hair colour;; I must say when she did my colour, I was amazed to feel the shine, softness and the unbelievable depth of colour. Truly a great experience, and truly, Mimi is the diva of hair colour. I strongly recommend her. I never had so many compliments about my hair !

Vibrant Colors and Great Styling!

by yaelsotiriou at Citysearch

I walked into Brocato's Hair Salon, after being referred there by a friend. She had told me she went there, spent several hours there, and came out looking like a movie star. I had to see for myself. I was not disappointed. The stylist who took care of me, and I mean REALLY took care of me, was Mimi. She understood exactly the look I was going for, and mixed and applied the color perfectly.

For those of you who were disappointed with your service, here's a tip. If you're going to verbally thrash someone on the internet, the entity that links the world together, and potentially DESTROY someones career, you need two things.

1. Accurate information.

2. Remedial English, as yours is about as "hainous" as it gets.

Great salon, and I thoroughly recommend it to anyone who wants to walk out those doors looking young and fresh.

• Pros: Gifted Stylists, Great Atmosphere, Excellent Service.

Hollywood Hair with Mimi........

by DevMiller1983 at Citysearch

I have had my Hair Extensions done many timesand I was refered to Mimi at Brocatos Studio Of Hair Design last month. I was floored, the system and hair used was of the highest quality. Mimi was so welcoming and tended to my every need. My hair is about shoulder length. When I left my hair was looking like something out of W Magazine. I am sooooo pleased with the service and work that I would reccommend my friends. My previous extension service took 5 hours.....Mimi did it in Two and a half, and her work was immaculate. Thank you Mimi, I look and feel great:)

• Pros: Best Hair Extension Service

Diana Saved My Hair and Made it Perfect for My wedding

by Jennifer Stukey at Citysearch

After a tragic hair color experience at a Salon in Columbia, which left my hair broken and my scalp blister four months before my wedding, Brocato's fabulous Medical Esthetician, Evelyn referred me to Diana. When I first meet Diana she thoughtfully listened to my story and assured me that she could help me and that my hair would be beautiful for my wedding day.

Diana paid exception attention to detail as she highlighted my hair. When I left that first visit my hair color was perfect. The day of my wedding the stylist who did my hair remarked that the color of my hair is what made my hair so outstandingly beautiful. The contrast of the highlights and the perfection of the job made my up-do fabulous. I had so many compliments on my hair that day.

I then returned to Diana after my honeymoon to have the wedding hair cut off! I brought in pictures of what I wanted. She was the first stylist who was realistic with me and told me that unless I spend hours with my hair it wouldn't come out like the picture. I was so appreciative of this feedback because of this I wasn't disappointed once the cut was finished. She gave me a great cut with the essence of the style I had picked out and again paid great attention to detatil. My new cut is easy to style and it looks get with my face shape. I will continue to go to Diana for all my hair styling needs, she is awesome.

• Pros: Excellent Stylist and a Fun Trendy Salon
• Cons: I have to drive from Columbia:(

Jenna Is Wonderful!

by jennifer125 at Citysearch

Jenna at Brocato's has been highlighting and cutting my hair for almost a year. She was referred by my sister, who raved, and suggested that I make an appointment. I was looking for someone new anyway…..She listens and provides exactly what I ask for. I used to prefer saran for highlights. Jenna was the first to achieve the same "closeness" with foil. My cut is basic; however, stylists in other places have screwed it up. I am always pleased with her cut and blow-dry. She is very sweet and seems to always be in a good mood. At times, I am not one to be chatty in the chair. If I am not talking, she is not bothered. She goes about her business. This is a plus for me. My 14 year old daughter has beautiful, thick, slightly wavy hair that most girls would die for. She hates it of course. Jenna has cut it twice and she is the only stylist my daughter says makes her like her hair! Gotta love that, since it is so hard to please a 14 year old girl. We have both had great experiences with Jenna and will highly recommend her to anyone. With its friendly environment, competitive prices and stylists like Jenna, Brocato’s is a great place to go.

• Pros: friendly, fun atmosphere, convenient parking
• Cons: not close enough to home

My experience has been fantastic

by Sashiri at Citysearch

My experience has always been positive and I have never received so many compliments on my cut and color! I am always able to get an appointment and they will do their best to fit me in (or my son in) if they are booked. Mindi does my hair as well as my sons hair and she is wonderful - i have referred many people to her and they have all been happy.

I have also enjoyed waxing and facial services there - the products they use are very gentle for someone with sensitive skin.

I highly recommend them!

• Pros: Parking, many services offered, good customer service
• Cons: None

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

by Katerz25 at Citysearch

I used to be a fan of Brocatos but lately they have gone WAY down hill. The last few times I've gone I've had horrible customer service. The last time I went in, I went in for a few face framing highlights... which turned out to be massive streaks of blonde all over my face. I had dark hair and the stylist didn't process my hair long enough. It turned an ugly orange color and looked AWFUL. The stylist knew she screwed up and told me to come back in... in a week.... HOW RUDE??? I understand these things may happen so I didn't freak out..and I had a good relationship with my stylist... but it took going back 3X IN 3 WEEKS! AND THEY CHARGED ME A FEE EVERY SINGLE TIME I WENT! Being the nice person I am, I paid them and took my business to Phillip Michael in Fed Hill. He did an amazing job and fixed it for me. This place is awful and has terrible customer service. They don't back their work... and if you are paying 300 bucks for a cut and color seriously go somewhere else....

• Pros: nearby parking
• Cons: awful customer service, expensive - not worth it
