Giannetta Salon & Spa

I’m from out of state and was looking
for a good local spot for facials. The esthetician was sweet but I asked for a classic facial upon appointment. when the esthetician asked me in the room what I wanted I said I frequently get facials so you can use the most intense product that is optional. In the past when I’ve said that I was given the product within the price wage I had requested when scheduling the appointment or was told other products were an upgrade. I was upgraded but not made aware of it until the end when I went to pay. To my surprise the facial was an additional $ 40 more then I had been quoted originally. It’s not good business practice to charge clients more without any forewarning.
Also, when the product was settling on my face the esthetician left the room for 5 minutes. in my past facials, when product was settling, the esthetician would do neck, shoulder, back, and arm massage. There was no massage involved with this facial.
Long of the short, I won’t go back.

Great experience with cut by Gina and waxing by Janet and Amanda. Have already rebooked!!!

I had a great experience here. Gina transitioned me from a brunette with blonde highlights to a red head! I was overjoyed with the results. She also gave me a wonderful haircut and blow out. Nice atmosphere and great staff too.

Janet will give you the best facial you’ve ever had. Period. The Skinceutical product line is pricey but amazing!!! My sister and I are both believers!

I came here for hair and nail services for my wedding in November. I was pleased with the hair services — my hair came out nicely, but the stylist who did my hair could have been a little nicer and more friendly. I overheard her and another employee talking about how big another customer’s butt was. Not cool! And the nail services were terrible! I came in the day before my wedding for a gel manicure and pedicure. The pedicure had bubbled and peeled by later that afternoon so I returned to the salon to have it fixed. The next morning I woke up and noticed that many of the toenails were doing the same thing. I called the salon immediately to see if I could come in earlier ahead of my hair appointment to get the pedicure fixed and make sure my manicure wouldn’t do the same thing. Upon arriving, I was friendly and respectful in expressing my concerns. The salon staff seemed uninterested and didn’t seem to care about fixing these issues! This was the day of my wedding and they should have been more professional about addressing my issues, which were very legitimate. I shouldn’t have had to worry about this the day of my wedding. They ended up redoing my pedicure and putting my gel manicure back under the uv lights, assuring me the nails would be fine. My pedicure dried for three hours and still ended up smudging in my shoes and the day after my wedding my manicure peeled off in the shower. Luckily it lasted through my wedding. Thankfully, the salon refunded what I paid, which was the right thing to do. But I was still very disappointed. I urge others to seek out someplace with more skilled and professional staff.

I arrived on-​time for my hair-​cut and the person I was originally going to see was sick, so they had to fit me in with someone else. I didn’t mind this, I understand stuff happens. But, after I waited for a half-​hour, the hairstylist I wound up seeing seemed to not care less about me. After I had my hair washed, I was forgotten about while having it dried in the other room and I had to come out to remind them I was there.
My stylist, a younger blonde, spent the entire time she was «working» on my hair talking about how she desperately needed to send money to her boyfriend, including asking me if I knew anything about Western Union. No, I don’t, and I’d rather you just pay attention to my hair.
I asked for long layers in my hair, and to have the split ends trimmed. She barely took a quarter-​inch off my hair, and the split ends remained in some portions. She hardly cut my hair at all.
Won’t be back.

I came here yesterday as a little treat to myself to have a 60min massage. I had never been here before and used their email to book the appointment– they had Saturday spots open a day in advance! I thought that was awesome. Once I got there I didn’t have to wait long either, which is a plus. The salon is really clean and professional looking, made me feel like I was in a high-​end place.
I had my massage done by Bridget– she was awesome! I would definitely recommend her. My experience was so peaceful and wonderful.

so-​so work
non-​professional
could get a better styling at Super Cuts in the mall
overpriced

I came here as a bridesmaid last weekend and had my hair done by Chessie. She was so sweet and nice, did an amazing job with my hair and we all left happy (bride included). I asked for a complicated french braid thing which she had never done, but I was so so happy with her work (she worked off of screengrabs on my phone) and it stayed basically perfect and in place for 3 days!
The salon owner also baked us banana bread and gave us mimosas, it was such a nice experience in a situation that I’m sure can be quite hectic for both salons and bridal parties. All in all, HIGHLY recommended, and specifically Chessie for being a great hair stylist!

This salon is fantastic — clean and great service. I’m new to the area and still had my regular places in Manhattan and wanted to try a place closer to home in the Hudson Valley. I went in for an eyebrow wax and hair cut. Janet did my wax and she is amazing, very attentive. Gina was my hair dresser and I wanted a new look. She chopped 6 – 8 inches off and did a great job. I will definitely be returning to this salon.

I live very close to this salon and needed a fresh hair cut for a wedding I am attending in two weeks. I chose Giannetta because I saw how nice it looked through its windows and I heard good things from friends. I’m sad to say I wasn’t impressed. It was not a bad salon by any means, but I have experienced better.
No one greeted me as I walked in, nor offered me a coffee/​drink like other salons have. My shampoo was quick and minimal, my hair didn’t even feel clean afterwards. On the upside, the shampoo girl was very sweet and friendly, my stylist was friendly as well. I made my Saturday appointment over the phone as a first time customer. The receptionist scheduled me with a random stylist. What she did not inform me of, however, was that the stylist was the «master stylist» of the salon. For this reason, my simple hair cut (a trim and some layers) was $ 75. If she had thought to tell me this I could have made an appointment with a stylist who would have charged me the $ 45 that is listed on their website. I did receive a good hair cut, but like I said earlier, I’ve experienced better. I wouldn’t say my hair cut was worth the high price. My advice is if you’re looking for a salon in Beacon, go to Arje on Main Street and have Arif do your hair. You’ll get more for your money.

Love Janet and love this addition to Beacon. The hours are great and for me, location is extremely convenient. I go for waxing but am dying to try a facial and body treatment.
Only criticism is that I wish they had descriptions of their body and facials on their site.
Definitely worth going to!

I called on a Friday night in a bit of a panic for a friend who was getting married the next day and had made no arrangements for her manicure or pedicure. They were super nice and were able to get her an appointment for 9:00 the next morning. Amber who did both the manicure and pedicure could not have been nicer and professional. Both services were top notch and the bride could not have been happier.

Amanda just gave me the best massage I’ve ever had.

I’m not sure where all the great reviews are coming from, because this was by far the worst salon experience I have ever had. I’m not one of those prissy, picky girls who needs everything to be perfect. I get it — mistakes happen. But I have been having my hair professionally cut and colored at dozens of salons, and this one is in last place. Let me break it down…
Personnel: With the exceptions of the owner and the assistant (I believe her name was Amber?), everyone else was super rude. I am not easily offended and do not revel in small-​talk, but these were the bitchiest stylists I have ever encountered. The color came out completely wrong, and the stylist was blaming me for changing my mind, when I specifically asked for no orange tones from the beginning. She also criticized my tattoos and said, «Well, they are really permanent. Like you’ll have them forever.» As if to warn me against them. Also, while cutting my hair, she said «The great thing about hair, it will just grow right back!» Seriously, wtf?
Products: I had a cut, color, and highlights, and it was fine, but I saw quite a few L’Oreal bottle lying around, and when I am paying $ 180 for the works, I don’t expect drug store products.
Efficiency: I entered, she colored. The color was nothing like what I had described or picked on the color chart, so she colored it again. Still way too dark, so she lightened it. Added highlights, which were bleach blonde (which I specifically said I didn’t want) so she used a toner on them to make them more subtle I guess? It didn’t really work, but I had been shampooed 3 times so I quit and went for the cut. Let’s just say that I cried for two hours after seeing the haircut. As she was styling it, I requested she leave it a bit damp because I typically don’t used direct heat on my hair. My hair was bone dry. Also, I just had a piercing in my ear, and the last time I had my hair dyed I also had a new piercing, and after I requested the stylist at the other salon not touch it, it was not touched. After a few minutes, I cringed every time the stylist at Gianetta neared my ear because she hurt it so badly.
Time spent at the salon: 5 hours.
I do not recommend this to anyone. It’s worth the trip to Marlene Weber or Bella Luci.

I love this salon! Janet is the master of brow waxing and tinting! And skin treatments? Don’t even get me started! I spent the entire year before my wedding coming to her to get my skin ready for my big day and it definitely paid off. I also got gel nails done for my wedding here and the woman who did them was just as sweet and professional. The space is beautiful, clean, and enormous, and everyone is very helpful, whether you’re choosing a product or getting a pedicure.

I knew Janet when she worked for another salon and followed her when she opened up this place. Giannetta is gorgeous, huge, and über classy. Janet may very well be the best waxist I’ve ever encountered. I’ve referred a fair share of people to her over the years and have received nothing but thanks for it. If you’re like me and can’t trust your hair removal to just anybody, ask for Janet. She’s a true pro and a real doll.

Incredibly impressed with this new salon. The décor is lovely and comforting, the atmosphere is light and airy. They carry the best of products, including a full line of hard to find Kerastase! Best of all, the staff is extremely welcoming, polite and professional. The owner works along side her team, and you can tell she is really dedicated to the clients experience. The Friday hours are extremely convenient id you commute.
After putting up with sub standard service at area salons since moving to Beacon five years ago, I’m thrilled to have found Giannetta.

Yet another awesome addition to Beacon! I’m based in NYC now, but I’m an upstate boy at heart.
Wow, what a beautiful building! It has this amazing Grand Medditeranian feel to it. Service there is awesome, front desk girls super sweet, and Kathy is a master at hair. Love her! Janet (the owner) gives some rediculously thourough facials. A great addition to the neighborhood, I’m trying to keep it a secret but it seems like they are getting more booked up than ever! Love.

I was referred to this salon by a mutual client. I stopped in the other day with a last minute hair crisis (another hair stylist had butchered my hair!). Tina was there for me and was not only able to fit me in with only a few minutes notice, but gave me excellent service! My hair was fixed and looks better than ever! I couldn’t be happier.
P. S. It’s gorgeous inside!
