I have to relocate often because of my husband's work, and I refuse to go anywhere except an Aveda salon. Every other hair color that I have tried makes my hair break and fall out. Only Aveda products prevent this and give me the results I want. I found Asante by doing an internet search and made an appointment. I carry with me, in my wallet, the "recipe" for my hair color. IF the stylist follows it to the letter, my hair comes out perfect. However, sometimes I will run across a stylist that, without asking, will tweak the recipe a little and it is always a disaster. Jennifer listened to me. She changed nothing. She read the recipe and said, "Oh yeah! No Problem!" and just like that, my hair came out perfect.
Its very important to me that my opinions are counted, that I can have confidence that my recipe wont be changed in any way, and that I have the final say in what I want for my hair. This is not to say that I am closed to suggestions. I entertain them enthusiastically but the bottom line is that the decision is MINE. Jennifer has inspired both trust and confidence in me. She happily copied down my aveda color recipe in her file and I never have to doubt that she will follow it. I also can trust her with a cut. When I show her how much I want trimmed, that is how much she will take, and not a millimeter more.
I have very curly hair. I have ridiculously thick hair (when it isnt breaking off from a bad color job). I wear a blunt cut, which most stylists dont want to do with such curls. Jennifer does not argue about the cut, the color, or anything. I can expect expert work, cheerful conversation (she has a very quick wit and will make you laugh), and most importantly, perfect hair. Jennifer is excellent with fussy people like me. She is also a very talented stylist . I have observed her working with other clients and her work is amazing. She can make you look like you've been to the best salon in the world. Your hair will sparkle, lay perfectly and be beautiful just for YOU.
Appointments are fairly easy to get. Jennifer has worked me into her schedule when time is tight. The salon is clean, smells GOOD and is bright and pleasant. It is conveniently located with plenty of parking. I just dont have any criticisms, fussy as I am. That says a lot. Go there. I doubt you will be sorry. read more
