She really listens to what you want and goes above and beyond making you feel so comfortable. I was very nervous on my big day and she was able to keep me relaxed in her amazing eclectically curated studio. She is very personable and a fantastic hair and makeup artist. I had no makeup skills whatsoever and wanted a very natural look and she blew me away!!! Her talent speaks volumes in all of my wedding photos and I am very grateful for her services! She is always booked for all the best reasons and is always worth the wait!!!!

She's very knowledgeable, friendly, and great personality. The reason I needed my hair cut was because last place I went the stylist cut it all uneven. I tried to have her fix it but she ended up making it worse so I said that's it, won't be going back there! This salon, I found, to be very professional, clean, and very nice decor. I liked so much that I booked my next appointment with Kelly, going to color my hair. I highly recommend if you are looking for a place that knows how to do hair, doesn't over charge, and comfortable atmosphere.

I waited a couple of months for the bad dye job to grow out and then made an appointment with the owner of Shear Style, Joyce, based on good reviews online. Joyce gave me a super short, super cute pixie and figures one or two more haircuts and the bad dye job will just be a bad memory. I love the haircut and even like looking a little punk with the two tone pixie! Excellent service, clean and nicely decorated salon, reasonably priced. So happy to find my new go-to salon and hair cutter in Ithaca!

**Late Review** I got my hair done this past December with…read moreKaitlyn. She seemed nice but after I left the salon I was left wondering why she did such a poor job on me, I've seen photos of her work and of the wonderful colors she has done as being the color specialist of the shop. Since December, I've still been a bit disturbed as to why she let me leave the salon with hair that I disliked more than when I came (I actually wish I had my normal hair back, as it was much better before I sat down with her) I had red hair dye all over my forehead.. my ears.. the back of my neck.. my cheeks. I sat in my car and cried like a little girl because why would you do that.... I wished I didn't go in there and just kept my hair how it was. The color itself was not at all what I had wanted, after showing photos, etc. I understand not getting the EXACT shade of course, but this was just incomparable.. after asking how I'd like it styled and saying I would like just a regular blowout, I was disappointed with how she managed to do it.. I've seen blowouts on her portfolio.. I even do my own blowouts.. she could've handed me the styling tools and I could have done it myself if she didn't plan on doing a good job on me.. she left my hair super frizzy, and nowhere near a blowout at all. It was the day before Christmas, even after getting such disappointing service, I still tipped a lot. The only reason I chose this shop is because Tara's family is neighbors with my mother and I wanted to go to a familiar business. I wish the experience could've been better. In the photo, it is my hair just the day before seeing Kaitlyn, and then immediately after. It looks horrible. I only post this review now, because I think about this every day and wonder why she did such a poor job on me ? I am not a resident of the area anymore i live in NC for military and easily could've just waited to go back home after the holidays to get my hair how I wanted it. Her portfolio all had great styles.. that's the only reason I booked with her. But not on me unfortunately.

She was really nice even though I chatted her ear off (I talk a lot when I'm nervous) and the salon overall was really nice too. It was a nice, calm experienced compared to larger salons with 10 hair dryers going at once or places with kids running around everywhere. The prices were also very reasonable. I'll definitely go back.

Kristin did my hair (plus 8 others) for my wedding last weekend. She was a total professional from…read morestart to finish and from the moment she responded to my inquiry email, I was excited to work with her. As soon as I sat in her chair for my hair trial, I knew I was in good hands. I hadn't had my hair done since my senior prom and every blowout I've ever had disappears in a matter of hours. Needless to say, I was a total newbie to getting styled. I had some vague instructions/inspiration pictures, but Kristin really listened to me and offered her expertise when it was clear I really wasn't sure of my vision. During the trial, she tried out a couple different things and listened to me when I told her to use way more hairspray than she thought was necessary. I expected her to be on my a** for clear instructions for my bridesmaids, but she never pressured me to make decisions I didn't want to and was totally flexible to tailor each girl's style on the day-of without compromising on time. Even when someone in my party went MIA and threw off the timeline, Kristin kept her cool and pivoted to make the most of the time. We went in on a Sunday, so Kristin let us take over her studio so we could hang out together, get dressed, blast music, and eat snacks. She was a gracious host and even let our traveling makeup artists set up shop in her chairs. The space is also super funky and I am elated with how the pictures came out. As for the finished product - I could have cried. I felt like an absolute princess surrounded by a all of my fairy godmothers. My hair was better than I could have imagined because she was not afraid to use her judgement to create something she knew would be beautiful. She also deviated a bit (in the best way) from what we had done at the trial, which told me she was being very thoughtful and not just using muscle memory to play it safe. Love this spot, love Kristin, would do it all again if I could!
