The Reviews Are In!
The following reviews can be found on Yelp.com:
There are times when a woman wonders how she will find and maintain her look. This salon is staffed by the most knowledgeable and professional technicians. They care about each client's needs and desires. They focus on nurturing the spirit and look of each client and have experience with all races of client and textures of hair. I was brought to the salon by my son, who was encouraged by a male mentor. Since, I have three daughters who are also regular clients. Service is delivered in an efficient and timely manner. No All Day at the SALON! When they are in town, I bring my mother and my sister. Each of us has different hair and different styles. We have also used the waxing services of the salon. You would do well to check them out!

Babs is the best bang for your buck in the Birmingham area! I was hesitant to try a salon in Birmingham, as I've seen prices at other area salons. However, after hearing good reviews from a friend, I was surprised to see how affordable they were! I got my hair cut, colored, and highlighted for a great price-- and it looks fantastic! Vina did my hair, and I was impressed at how personable she was. She was receptive to my ideas, but not hesitant to suggest, either. Love her! The other employees were also very friendly. You should definitely check them out!

My personal experience with the proprietor of Babs Salon and Spa has been a positive one. I have always been conservative when it comes to hair care. Wash, blow dry, curl and go. Since becoming a client of Ms. Blanchard, my hair has grown longer and healthier than when I was a child. Stepping out of my comfort zone, I trusted Babs to color my hair. The result was AMAZING! I receive sooo many compliments, the color Babs selected for me is perfect.
Babs Salon and Spa is professionally operated. All the technicians are knowledgeable and professional. Each is committed to continual professional development regarding their trade, remaining on the 'cutting edge' of their profession. I would highly recommend anyone of the stylists or technicians. I am a customer for life and you should be too.

Babs Salon and Spa is a wonderful find! The owner and staff are very knowledgeable about styles, trends, coloring, cutting and extensions. But what I love more than anything is the owner's commitment to all of their clients having healthy hair first and foremost.
I've been a client going on seven years and went for a consultation when my hair had been burned out by chemicals not being removed properly. My hair was treated with care and returned to normal within a year. Ms. Blanchard is also trained in the Coppola system that uses protein to straigten hair. I've become a client using this system and my hair is very healthy and longer than before. I do not miss chemicals at all!!!
You should also try their spa treatments all presented with a personal touch - facials, massages, manicures, pedicures and more!!

If you want to be waited on in a classy salon, this is it. Bright and airy. Clean with jazz music. I get my hair relaxed here and appreciate a reasonably priced salon with great service, greater people, and finesse!

Babs Salon is wonderful!!! Speaking from the experience of someone who knows how tough it is to find somewhere that will do your hair beautifully (and keep it healthy) and take care of your waxing without a wait. Its truly a one stop shop. If you haven't been there you should go. It's right next to a bridal shop and before you hit Papa Joe's Market on Woodward. Stop in... the owner's wonderful and they will definitely find a way to work you in and get you out quickly. Trust me you'll leave looking and feeling beautiful on the outside and in your pocket, which is so hard to find these days. Oh, and added bonus they sale some really great products that I haven't been able to find at other salons.

I have been a client at Bab's salon since they opened. The atmosphere is wonderful and I always feel like I'm the most important client that Bernadette has! I think she makes all of her clients feel that way!
My hair is always looking and feeling good when I leave Babs Salon. I was referred to Bernadette, the owner of Babs Salon, by a mutual friend and have been absolutely satisfied since day one. I recommend Babs to anyone looking for excellent service at reasonable prices in a very comfortable environment.

I am in high school now and that means school dances, homecoming, prom, etc. It is very important for me to look my best. I LOVE BABS! I am guaranteed to come out looking H-O-T! I also get my highlights and cuts done there. I have fun when I go. Everyone there treats me like a normal person and not just some teenager. Plus, my mom doesn't complain about me wanting to get my hair done because they have great prices! I would TOTALLY recommend all my friends to come!

I'm a guy so I don't like for people to jack up my hair. I just happened to need a cut one day that my wife was going in to have hers done. The salon was very professional. I didn't have to tell them anything fancy for them to know what I meant by "just clean it up." I can't stand to have my hair cut too short so I was really glad when they did it right. Vina Lybbert was her name and I highly recommend her.

BABS Salon is the absolute greatest! It has such a warm, welcoming feel to it. I thoroughly enjoy the stylists--Vina Lybbert is the stylist I use. When I walk in the door I know I am guaranteed to have a great time and walk out with hair that makes me feel like I could conquer the world! Anyone who is looking for a new salon should REALLY check them out. BABS Salon is a great way to boost your ego for sure!

I'm a big fan! Not what I expect when I think Birmingham salon at all! The prices were very affordable, the service was superb, my hair looks better than it ever has, and I didn't feel like I needed to go into the salon looking like a million bucks just to feel comfortable. Real people should go to this salon! Superb service without the pretentious flair!

Great Place! I came here for waxing and was very impressed. The owner is extremely professional and friendly. The prices are very reasonable, especially when compared to other Birmingham salons which can be terribly over priced. I would highly recommend giving this place a try for waxing services.

Love this salon! I'll be upfront from the beginning, my good friend works here. And while you might think my review might be biased, her last salon would not have received a good review from me where atmosphere is concerned. However, BABS has a wonderful atmosphere. The owner and all the stylists are fun to be around, very friendly and accommodating and very very talented! Unlike other salons, you feel comfortable, never rushed or like you are just another head of hair in the chair. The attention you receive makes it worth your time and money! Finally, a Birmingham salon without all the snoot and affair and arrogance! They simply want to make you beautiful and feel great! Go, go, go!
