I saw Erica today and she did an amazing job! I love my new cut and color - she was meticulous and gave me exactly what I was wanting. The environment is cute and relaxed and everyone I interacted with was very friendly. I will be back and already recommended to several others!

I just moved back to Texas after years living in Hawaii and was dreading finding a new stylist because the I LOVED (and I mean loved) my stylist Joy - check out Dada Hawaii - but, when I say that Shelby was a total gem and made me feel/look amazing -- it's an understatement. She's so talented, personable, and knows what works best for you. She takes her time to get to know you and how to accentuate you hair in a way that doesn't feel over styled or too ambitious (meaning it feels right for you.) I just booked color with her so excited for the follow up review. But for all y'all newcomers looking for a stylist, I highly recommend Shelby

Erica at Bixa is the BEST!!! love my new color. Thanks so much for taking the time to help me find the right color and style. Erica is phenomenal hairstylist I am so glad that I found her!

Yellow orange balayage

Sadly I didn't get the look that I wanted. My appointment took 5 hours and total was $390. I posted my inspo pics and then what I left with. I did ask for it to be a little bit more ash/lighter but most certainly wanted a balayage. You can see how harsh the line is from my root to the blonde. It just looks like my roots are outgrown and the color is very orange and yellow. Balayage should be more natural and gradient from the root to the ends. The owner came in half way through my appointment after all of my hair was bleached and asked what was it that I am trying to achieve? I was very confused by the question since my hair was already all bleached. When I called the next morning and spoke with the stylist she told me she also was not happy with the color and wanted do another toner as well and said she knew it would be harder to achieve a natural look with my length of hair. I feel like her doubt should've been shared before we even started so we could've tweaked it to be more natural looking instead of burning all of my hair first. They offered to fix it tomorrow and at first I agreed but after showing friends & family they suggested I just take my loss and to go somewhere else. I did not request a refund nor was it offered. My lesson is, just because something is expensive does not always mean it's better. I did enjoy the environment and how pleasant everyone was. It's a very clean & cute salon and they even offer cookies & wine during your visit. The owner offered other services and said they're available if/when I decide to have it fixed, but there's no fixing fried hair.

Emerald, turquoise, fuchsia and magenta! I cannot wait to braid it!

Hailey, where have you been all of my life!!! Talk about a gem! She is such a beautiful spirit and I left so excited about my new iridescent haircolors. It'll be bold when I'm feeling sassy and tame when I wanna wallflower. Hailey has been cutting my husband's hair for a year now and I'm thanking God she's now doing mine too! The salon is amazing. How they recapture re-purpose and recycle everything is amazing. I feel like I'm doing something for the environment by getting my hair done! The wash sink recaptures 65% of the water, they donate the haircut remnants so they can be used in the future for oil spills, who has even heard of that! The list of what it takes for Bixa to be a fully sustainable salon goes on and on. The products are amazing and animal cruelty free. My haircolor came out vivid and gorgeous, please see the pictures. The cost was right on target AND this salon does not allow tipping! No more uncomfortable "did I tip her enough" moments. Bixa for LIFE!

Not cute

Megan completely let me down. I feel as though any reputable stylist should take pride in their work and go to any length to fix their mistakes, however, Megan threw in the towel and decided not to take accountability. I made a 3rd appointment with her on 5/10 for $150 highlights scheduled for 6/1. The second appointment was my 5th day after my original appointment at which time she toned my hair again because it was too brassy. The salon is dark and I never noticed these huge chunks on either side, they were actually brought to my attention by another individual. I want to add that walking around like this for a month and adding the evidence of it all to the internet does not spark joy. Fearing confrontation, I reached out to Megan to share my discouragement in hope that I would receive reassurance as I was becoming more and more weary with everyday that passed. Negative reviews aren't my thing, but if this helps anyone, it's worth it.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. I've been coming here for over a year now and my hair always turns out so great. They are so accommodating to all my annoying requests. Today Matt and Karina both contributed to my look and as always I'm impressed. You won't be disappointed.

Do you all do tight spiral perm?

Good afternoon - perms are not something we really specialize in at the salon. My apologies.

Like most women, I was excited to try this new trend and with the Groupon, it would be a great price for something I was experimenting with. Milissa's site was so easy to use and that's honestly the reason I went with her business to begin with. During our first appointment, I did ask if she had experience with almond eyes (I'm asian), and she stated she did. Of course, I thought this was important because the shape of the eyes and lashes are clearly different and bare a different result than those with round eyes. Milissa listened to my concerns and made sure she informed of the process to make me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment. She's an amazingly sweet person, who is so talented. I come back religiously, with the exception of when I had to have my baby lol. She does get busy and has a waitlist so try to schedule at least two weeks in advance. She is very understanding and tried to accommodate to the best of her ability. I plan on coming back to her anytime I need eyelash refills!

I was able to pick up a bottle & afterwards was trying on perfume samples. It's nice because they have paper tabs you can just spray on to test the scent. There were lots of new scents I've never seen before. I'm in a change-of-season mode looking for a lighter, less musky scent esp. since the weather's been in the 80°s. I didn't find anything that suited me but at least was able to smell some. I like how they have the perfume bottles anchored with an extendable wire to prevent thefts. Attendants were helpful from the time I entered til the time I left. After I checked out, I was asked if I needed any help & remembered I wanted to check out a Kosas concealer. I was brought to the Kosas area & attended by Joe. He said he'd color-match me to avoid the guesswork. It's a hand-held device that is set to your forehead & cheek to get closer to the color tones of your skin. Joe chose a couple of shades & tested it on my hand then on my face after he sanitized the tester. I checked it by the window & settled for one mini-sized concealer. I also asked about a pressed foundation product as my Shiseido had been discontinued. He showed me a Dior balm type of product so he did the same test w/a couple of shades, sanitized again & tried it above my chin. I told him I'd wear it while walking around Whole Foods & see how it wears in the day before buying. I asked him for some tips to set makeup under the eyes & he gave some suggestions. I addressed some skincare concerns and he was limited in knowledge but that's fine. In time I'm sure he'll gain more experience. I'd say the associates I've worked with in the Nordstrom Beauty counters have more experience, IMO. Nevertheless, there are a ton of product lines including the Sephora brand which has its own merits. Brands evolve & I like to see the new products offered, new technologies incorporated, new colors & formulations. I like the convenience of buying online & pickup except for the locations at Kohl's. There are a lot of Sephoras in the area which is nice & their rewards program is an extra perk. They always have new sample sizes for 100 point rewards redemptions every month which is fun to look forward to. I've even redeemed La Mer skincare sets for 500 points! They also offer various makeup application classes & have certain product line events where they're launching new products. You can sign up online & check their calendar of events.

Magnolia Medical & Aesthetics made me feel so comfortable, safe, and secure from the very first call! When I got in Natalie talked me through what we could do and we also discussed the random bump that decided to appear on my forehead a few years ago, which I decided when in Rome might as well fix it too! I wasn't prepared for the results! I have been so insecure about my nose. I do not even have a scar. It healed incredibly fast! I only missed filming a single podcast episode!!! Maybe 5 days of downtime (by downtime I mean time with a little bandaid on my face) and even then it was probably more like 3/4 days. My forehead looks great. It may be small fixes but I feel incredible and I'm not walking around with a big ole scar or mole on my face!!! So grateful to Natalie and the whole team! I can't recommend them enough!

Like most salons, the eyebrow wax was $12 which is good pricing. The employee was very nice. I have sensitive skin so naturally my skin gets very red and irritated whenever it's waxed -- but my eyebrows were way redder than normal. I don't think the wax they use is for sensitive skin, but it's fine, most places don't. Just something to keep in mind if you have plans later in the day or have sensitive skin like mine.

The salon is clean, well ventilated and the staff are always kind, efficient and detailed. I'm usually a very boring dip/gel kind of gal but I've found myself trusting the staff to pick colors and styles for me. (Yes, I loved my maroon, bronze sparkle and cat's eye nails). They have lots of colors to choose from and all staff have a great command of language and they trade. They are detailed in filing, shaping and caring for your nails and toes. If you are on a specific time schedule, call ahead and make an appointment. Seems like this is the place to do nails with your friends. I'm sure you will both enjoy and be back again and again.
