Super uneven...
F C.

Long story longer. Came in, brought a picture off their website (that I later found out they didn't even do they just took off the internet), told them exactly what I wanted- and how I needed help fixing a color mistake from a hair school . The girl seemed to listen and was extremely sweet... she said yes! No problem! yet after she was done, what I came in for wasn't even addressed and my hair color looked nothing like what I asked for. She said sorry and wanted to try again and asked me to leave and come back 20 min later. I agreed and tried to have patience.. another round with high hopes. Although she was super nice my hair wasn't. I finally just had to give up and go home. After I got home and looked in the mirror I was so bummed. The cut and color were so uneven. I wrote the owner and sent her pictures. She asked me to come in so she could fix it. I went back in, explained what I wanted and showed her the picture off their site again. She didn't talk much to me, or explain that it would be difficult, not even that there could be different outcomes.. she just said sure let's do it. Her first attempt turned my hair an orange color, I guess from her trying to lift the color her employee did and from the original dye job I came in to correct. She asked me to stay longer so she could fix the orange color. After her second attempt that day my hair looked totally fried and even worse than what her employee did. My haircut was still uneven and the color even less blended .... she knew it didn't look good and I could tell she was over it so I said ok I need to go I've been here a long time and I'm just not happy with this. I reallllly wanted to like it and I tried to be nice about it. Yet I got home and looked in real lighting and it was just horrible. I wrote to the owner again and asked for my money back. I told her I understood she tried but my hair still didn't look good. She went on to blame it on the salon school who originally did it and then blamed it on her employee and told me to contact her, that they're independent contractors.. I was like wow if it was going to be hard for you, all you had to do was explain that to me- and not blame your employee or the other salon. Ultimately it's your name on the door. I understand you tried but it wasn't a good cut or color. I had to go somewhere else that fixed it fast and with ease.. - I try not to be difficult and I gave plenty of opportunity for it to be fixed..I honestly just wish your salon would have explained the possible outcomes before doing my hair- I explained in detail what I wanted done to my hair- It would have been a lot less disappointing if your salon didn't make it sound like an easy fix. Lesson learned A- Never go to a school for color. B- don't pay for a service unless your actually satisfied. Period. C- make sure the pictures on a salons site are their own, and depict THEIR actual talent. Sorry so long guys- but my advice is stay away from this salon unless you want something BASIC.

Before Midnight Hair - Color and extensions by Kristina

I had to take a moment to rave about Kristina at Before Midnight Hair - she's a true hair wizard…read more Watching Kristina work was like seeing an artist with her favorite canvas. She matched the extensions to my hair color and texture so well, I can barely tell where my hair ends and the extensions begin. What I appreciated most was the aftercare tips Kristina gave me - they were super practical and easy to follow. It's clear she doesn't just do this for a living; she does it because she loves it, and that passion shines through in her work. If you're on the fence about where to go for extensions, look no further.

Kristina is AMAZING. Super upfront and I trusted her as soon as I first met with her cod the…read moreconsultation. I'm in my mid 40's and have never had extensions before. I lost a good amount of hair the last couple of years due to some surgeries and then going on HRT (hormones). It was starting to bum me out and my colorist recommended Kristina. I'm so elated that she did! My hair feels and looks like it did before the stressful couple of years happened, and I feel like myself again with a little bit of extra umph because the extensions are making my hair feel even healthier. She matched my color to a T as well as the waves I have in my hair. I'm stoked on that because then I don't have to style it often... I can just let it air dry and it's exactly like my real hair! I didn't want extensions that looked like extensions and she did an incredible job. She's also super sweet and wonderful to chat with. Highly highly recommend her!!

Took my temperature when I arrived, and asked about any symptoms and exposure to COVID. Stephanie did my hair. I had horrible COVID grow out, had to get color correction, because of the incompetence of the person who did my hair at a different salon. I had to have two visits with Stephanie to fix my hair. The final result was great! She gave me a great recommendation of a protein hair mask to use at home. Wow! What a difference! As much as we had fun at my hair visits. She didn't want to see me for at least two months! I was heartbroken. Who was I to have girl talk with? Who was going to spoil me with my hair? Who was going to make me look beautiful? (I am hot. But, she made me look much hotter). I begged her to change her mind! I cried like a baby! Just kidding! I have over processed my hair from bleaching it so much throughout the years. I'm a brunette, trying to have Elsa/Daenerys hair. Stephanie doesn't want my hair to fall out, and look like Cinderella's ugly step-sisters. Stephanie is not a selfish person, and wants me to have beautiful, and healthy hair. I'm planning on seeing her again in April. My last visit with her was in December 2020. My hair has had time to become stronger, and healthy enough to finally achieve my Elsa/Daenerys look. Especially, with the protein hair mask that Stephanie recommended. It's Aphogee Serious Care & protection Two-Step protein treatment. Worth it! My hair is shiny, healthy and strong! Plus, I've been shampooing and conditioning my hair with dark purple/blue shampoo and conditioner. A must for blonde/platinum hair. Stephanie is amazing (not because we have the same name). Because, she's friendly, respectful, knowledgeable, caring and fun to hangout with. While, she works her magic with making hair healthy and beautiful! Go see her! I promise. She won't make you cry. She's not mean. I was just kidding about that. I'm sarcastic.
