Okay, this is a big deal to give five stars to a salon because I have *never* left one thinking it would be my forever-hair-home. My hair is fairly manageable and I've never considered myself a hair person, until now. I realize the reason I never cared was because nobody ever gave me the look or experience I was after. I have dark blonde hair but looove to go light without it looking tacky or unnatural or brassy. I need it to be a style I can wear up or down and I especially need it to be flexible with time between visits. Caroline gave me THE BEST balayage with blonde baby lites around my face and enough dark root bits to make it look perfectly natural as it grows out. I've never rebooked appointments at the end of appointments, but now I always do. I'm hooked.
The space is straight out of Pinterest, with voluptuous plants everywhere and decor that makes you want to go home to redecorate. The vibe is very inclusive and high end. It's hard to find high end, high quality spaces that feel okay for people who aren't rolling in dough, but this is it!
The prices are high for good reason. If you don't want to spend the money and you're okay with average hair or even errors, any other salon in town can help you. But if you want what you pay for, this. is. your. jam.
I've also heard and seen that Caroline, the owner, is great to work for/with. Her employees are more independent contractor style which means they have the freedom to create their schedules, name their prices, and care for hair the way they do best. It adds a fun, diverse component and it makes it possible for all hair types to get terrific results. Pus, you can definitely 'feel' when there's tension or power struggles in salons and that doesn't exist here. It truly is a breath of fresh air.
