Top Quality Salon.
I have been a client at House Productions for many years. Most of the time I go to Michael. He is certainly one of the top stylists in town and I am always happy with the results. But over the years,
when I have had schedule conflicts with Michael's schedule, I have also had a number of other stylists cut my hair and I have always been satisfied. The atmosphere is professional and all the staff is always friendly.
If you are looking for a quality salon in Center City, I don't think you can do any better than House.…
I'm so angry I could spit..
I've gotten my hair done at House Productions a handful of times. Each time, I've arrived at my appointment on time only to have to wait 20 or more minutes for my stylist to finish the appointment
before me. I don't mind that and I wouldn't normally bring it up except, well, you'll see...
One time back in February, they canceled my appointment two days in a row due to snow - snow that never came!! Pre-emptive snow. That pissed me off but I continued to patronize the salon since I liked the cuts I got.
Earlier this week, I called to make an appointment for today, Friday. Like most people, I work, and so I asked if they had anything available after 5pm. The woman on the phone said that they usually make their appointments for on the hour but she said that they could squeeze me in if I got there by 5:15 or 5:20.
So I left work a few minutes early and spent 30 minutes on a Septa bus during rush hour. I got to House Productions at 5:22.
As soon as I showed up, the receptionist said, "Oh, we just tried to call you. Anthony has a 6:00 so he doesn't have time for your cut."
Let me repeat: I LEFT WORK EARLY. I SPENT HALF AN HOUR ON A BUS. I WAS TWO MINUTES LATE. And I was turned away.
I suspect that they'd have no problem making their 6:00 wait. But it's Friday night and they want to make it to happy hour.
Oh. Also. My haircuts are not complicated. I'm usually in and out in less than 40 minutes.
Good riddance, House Productions. I made an appointment at a new salon for tomorrow.…
Kacie is Phenomenal!!. Kacie has been coloring my hair for several years and my color is absolutely PERFECT every time. She has an amazing eye for what colors would look best with your skin tone and current hair color. I will never let anyone else color my hair as long as I live in Philadelphia!…
Jess is awesome!!!. Jess has done my hair for 3 years now and every cut gets better and better! I disagree with what this person says and obviosly that wasn't a review but a bashing. Not what this site is for!!! Jess gives great haircuts!!…
Katie is GREAT!!!.
I've gone to Katie at House Productions a few times in the last year. I moved here from LA and was worried about finding someone to cut my hair. But it is safe to say I’ve found a stylist I can
trust in Katie. She was able to fix my hair after it had been growing out of a horrific cut from another place. And just yesterday, she gave me a super cute and low maintenance style to sport while I am growing my hair out. I have super curly hair, which a lot of people have a hard time with – but she understands the different textures within my hair and adjusts the cut accordingly.
The salon itself is cool. It is has a side door entrance leading to the second floor on 18th street and Chestnut. I have never had to wait more than five minutes and everyone is incredibly nice. The cuts are well worth the price and they encourage you to come in for free neck and bangs trims in between cuts.…
