I moved out to Denver permanently, but that doesn't stop me from flying out to dallas on the regular to get my hair done by her. She's always flexible, and collaborative on any hair ideas I have.

I have been meaning to post this review for about 6 months now…read more I have been taking my girls to her shop for about a year now and this is the longest we've stuck with the same braid stylist. All of my girls seem like her. My youngest says she's a little heavy handed, and her head is sore afterwards, but she says she can tolerate her better than the last person. At first lola was located in a smaller suite in the back of the complex. But her current space is up front. Her prices are reasonable, and I appreciated that she sold products in her suite. It keeps me from having to run to the store. She also sales chips and cold drinks in her salon which was nice one day because we were there for a while. Since it is a suite salon, I like that she doesn't Overbook and it's just us in the salon, vs a lot of chatty adult conversation.

The space is small and every inch is packed with hair, hair products, miscellaneous items, etc. It is a very junky unkept space. Lola had some type of mix up with the Groupon appointment schedule and arrived late for my appointment. It took her a few minutes to get settled which further delayed the start time. Once she got started it was on!! She braid very good and super fast. It took about 2.5 hours to complete my hair. I really like the style and will definitely go back. **she is very heavy hand and braid EXTRA tight. Take a couple of Tylenol when you arrive to ease the pain.** The hair I used was purchased online at www.hairsofly.com

I'm stunned by an experience with The Collective Salon, my go-to vendor for hair care during the…read morepast 18 months. I learned yesterday what their true priority is, and it is most definitely not "legendary service", as their company writeup insists. (Forgive the length of this post, but I believe you may find it useful.) It's all about the money. Here's how I know. Yesterday, our beloved 32-year-old African Grey parrot was clearly in distress and our veterinarian advised us to rush him to the clinic. Only an hour away from my 1 p.m. appointment at The Collective, I immediately texted and voice-mailed my stylist, apologizing for the cancellation, offering to pay a cancellation fee, and advising her that I would rebook and would be tipping her an extra $100 for a Christmas bonus, over and above my normal tip for service. That pledge was clearly insufficient. When I called the salon directly to explain my situation, zero empathy was forthcoming. Instead, I was told that I would "only" be charged $140, half of the $280 charged for a color highlight. Apparently, they thought a $140 penalty was a generous concession over their normal full-price charge. To say that I was stunned was putting it mildly. But I should not have been. Here's what to expect the minute you sign up with this salon: 1. You must give them your full credit card detail "to hold" in case of cancellation. 2. You will be charged full price for any service cancelled within 24 hours of the visit.(or is it 48 hours?) I can understand a cancellation fee - my last salon charged $50. But FULL PRICE? And absolutely no exceptions? During my decades-long tenure as a communications consultant, I gave countless fee-free hours to clients when I felt the situation was warranted and would contribute to a healthy, balanced vendor-client relationship. It's called 'the cost of doing business,' folks. But The Collective Salon begs to differ. In fairness to my stylist, a talented woman whose company I enjoyed and work I appreciated, she did begrudgingly offer to forgo any penalty to keep my patronage. But her outrage was obvious, and I declined. Instead, I called the salon and told them to charge my credit card the full $280 - a last hurrah from me to a salon that puts money above all else. They did so immediately. Here are other random notes that may shed light on working with the Collective Salon: * They charge Oak Lawn prices without Oak Lawn amenities. You will be treated to rock-hard, molded plastic chairs - genuinely uncomfortable - whether undergoing a shampoo or sitting beneath the dryer. They will serve you a diet coke, but this is otherwise a bare-bones salon. * You will be hounded via text and phone to ensure you show up for your appointment. And clearly, family emergencies do not factor into the customer-client relationship. Cherished pet or beloved relative - a death in the family doesn't count. Pay up. In full. Immediately. As for Capote, my witty and wonderful avian companion of more than three decades, we wept and held him close as he died. ###
