Hairpins, Kansas City MO

I’ve been going to Hairpins for years. I usually go to Brooke, who always does a great job. I booked an appointment with Brooke about a week ago, but she couldn’t make it, so she rebooked me with Jo instead. I asked for a bit of length off (2 inches, just so it didn’t touch my shoulders) and some layers at the bottom of my hair. She cut quite a bit at the front of my hair, to the point where the front is higher than my chin. (about 4 inches shorter than it was before) I ended up with a bowl cut. It was also uneven, and I asked Jo to fix it, and she did, but it was still uneven. I had to fix it at home. On top of that, Jo was more expensive than Brooke was, so I ended up spending $75 when I expected to spend around $50.

I hate leaving reviews, but I called the salon 3 times to discuss this privately, leaving 2 messages for the owner, but she never returned my call. I’m very upset with my haircut and will not be returning.

Jo is awesome! She is very friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely come back again. Thanks!

Jo is AMAZING! She was so intentional with my hair and put her heart into it, it turned out so much better than i could’ve imagined

Brooke did amazing on my color, she took my inspo pic and turned it into reality! So happy I found her.

I’ve had appointments with Brooke and Jo—both are absolutely wonderful stylists and humans.
Saw Jo just this morning and she took my grown out blonde to a dynamic copper (and I’m in love)! She is also an absolute delight to chat with—big talent with an even bigger heart!

Brooke is amazing with color! She gave my hair the prettiest blonde update. Will never go to anyone else!

This review is for Jo. <3 I hadn't cut, dyed, or styled my hair in over a year due to severe illness and chemotherapy treatment. I still had a lot of hair down to my back, but it had thinned out by about 50% with some very thin patches on my crown. To be frank, my self-esteem after a horrible year of illness was at an all-time low and I was feeling really ugly. I hadn't truly seen myself in so long, I'd forgotten how to feel good about my own reflection. I just moved to KCMO and found Jo @ Hairpins. When I showed up for my appointment, Jo greeted me like a friend. She was warm, patient, listened to what I was worried about and what I wanted. She went the extra mile to make sure I had a new look to go with my newfound health. I thought I was going for a haircut, but what I found was a cut and style so amazing, that I rediscovered myself and remembered that I'm worthy and beautiful. Her skillz and her considerate nature are a testament to what it means to be truly competent, professional, and empathetic. Class in every sense of the word. Thank you Jo.

I went to Hairpins for the first time a couple weeks ago and met with Jo. She was fantastic! I gave her a rough idea of what I wanted based on a TikTok I saw and she brought it to life. She also gave me a bunch of ideas for styling my new cut. It was a huge plus that she took appointments after 6 pm on weeknights as well. I highly recommend Jo and Hairpins!
