I was heartbroken and didn't know what to do. Then I remembered the amazing blowout I got from Stephanie a few weeks ago for an event. Not only did she fit me in, she stayed after closing to accommodate me. My hair is gorgeous! I'm so glad I reached out to Avon Hair Company all those weeks ago. The salon has the most amazing vibe, it's near my office, and I cannot wait to continue to be Stephanie's client

She gave me advice as to what to color, what color to try, etc. She was so friendly, nice, and clearly very skilled...I was in and out in probably an hour and a half. While I waited for my hair to color, they offered me a glass of wine. I am so happy with the results! Partial highlights cost me $60 (it's normally $80 but I had a Yelp coupon). A blow dry afterwards costs $30, according to the receptionist.

The lack of conversation makes it awkward as I try and trying to out where to direct my gaze as I'm sitting directly in front of a mirror facing myself. Eventually I become too wrapped up in wondering if my hairdressers had a bad day and is now taking it out on my hair of hair to care where I'm looking. Fortunately, at Defining Styles I've never had this problem. The hairdressers are friendly, dynamic and make you feel like they're really psyched to be cutting your hair. Most importantly however, they really know what they're doing and they listen (if I could italicize that, I would). When I request to have only have a few inches taken off my hair, I leave with my hair the length I wanted. No surprise bobs here! The stylists here make sure to discuss what you plan to do with your hair before they start snipping so that you have plenty of time to make sure it's the cut you'd like. The texture of your hair is taken into account so that you don't end up with a cut that only looks amazing when your hair's straightened.... but you have naturally curly hair. If you're trying to avoid silent (possibly angry?) hairdressers, you're safe at Defining Styles.

She was extremely nice and professional over the phone, asked me questions about my style and hair. I didn't have anything specific in mind (only knew I wanted a cut and highlights), so she gave me some great advice. Long story short - I absolutely love my hair. It compliments my face, makes me feel confident and it was pretty affordable. I plan on going back to Heidi in a few months to do the balayage. I've recommended her to at least 4 people :)

When I got there, I was a little confused because it's Sola Salons and then she has a salon she shares with one other person. It's so welcoming and warm. I let them know I was there and she came right over to introduce herself and apologize because she was running behind. She offered me water, snacks and coffee and told me she'd be with me as soon as she could. When I went to her chair, she asked me about my hair, what I wanted, etc. I told her I'd already had one devacut and explained what I didn't like about it. She said she kind of does her own thing mixed with deva and she's been doing deva for about a year and a half. She jumped right in and immediately I could see the changes she was making to the shape happening. I was so happy. Carmela is a very sweet woman and I'm so glad I took the chance! I'll definitely be back to see her again! I will say though, that she sold me a pureology product that has silicones in it. I was truly disheartened to find that after she'd used it and I'd spent more than $20 on it. But I should have looked at ingredients before she used it and I purchased it.

My 10 year old daughter wanted some color in her hair and I thought Organic was the way to go. Charlotte not only talked us through the entire process and product line but also treated my daughter like the client -- with such respect. We love how her hair turned out so much that I decided to stop using a box dye on my hair and have Charlotte put in some highlights. I officially LOVE MY HAIR again after being disappointed with it for so long. Charlotte chose the right highlight color to complement my complexion and the cut was perfect, which can be tricky since I have wavy / curly / fine hair. The environment is open and laid back. Jen Gero (Rootz proprietor) has managed to develop the perfect marriage of top rate service and products, without the pretension of a high end salon. I am committed to being a lifelong client of Rootz Salon.
