Behind the scorecard

Rating is each salon’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, shown next to the others listed here. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of people counts for more than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency reflects how recently clients are still posting reviews.

What shapes a salon bill in Salt Lake City

No prices are published here. A salon bill depends on the service (a cut, a gloss, dimensional color, extensions, a facial), the stylist’s level, and how much hair you have. Dexterity’s site says pricing details are in its booking link, and one Lunatic Fringe reviewer says it isn’t cheap. Ask for a price range at the consultation.

Lucero is on State Street, Dexterity on West Broadway, Landis on North 300 West, Lunatic Fringe on South Temple and Shades on East 200 South, all with Salt Lake City addresses on Google.
