Cityview's 2009 Best Hair Salon Thank you for
voting us Best Hair Salon in Des Moines 3 Years in A Row!
Cityview's 2008 Best Hair Salon Winning this
category two years in a row is a pretty tall order, but Salon Utopia has done
it by making each visit an experience rather than a service. Clients are
greeted and offered a cup of complimentary tea from Gong Fu Tea, and when you
leave you get a dark chocolate from Suzette Candies. New clients can also
expect a call from their stylist in two to three days to make sure they are
satisfied with their hair.
