I don't yelp very often but I gotta shout out when it's well deserved. I've been in Humboldt for 5…read moreyears or so and I've always had to switch up stylists either due to a terrible hair cut or they venture out of the county on their own journeys. So I hadn't gotten my hair cut in at least 6 months and was nervous to explore yet another salon and another stylist. Meredith made all the nerves vanish! She asked what I wanted and truly took that into consideration. She didn't just hack away but instead made sure I was comfortable with the length taken off and the aesthetic I wanted. Literally identical to the pictures I showed her. She took my damaged, flat hair and gave me exactly what I hoped for. I'll definitely be back for a trim and won't be at all nervous with Meredith. Thank you!!

Come with good intentions…read more This place may not be upscale, the most modern or smell good but it sure does the job! I came in for a relaxing cheap haircut and that is exactly what I received. This is a nice local certified hair stylist who has served the area for many years. Based on what the owner/hair stylist says she has been in operation for 50 years!! This is very impressive considering the fact that stores tend to change over time. The lady was born and raised in Humboldt. She claims to be Portugués from the Azores area!! Incredibly awesome!! The reason why this was a divine haircut was because for $25 the owner ended up washing and cutting my hair and was willing (if you ask) was willing to blow dry it and cut what you wanted off. The barber appeared serious and when asked questions he answered with simple responses and hardly looked my direction as if I was an off putting sight! Believe me I can be that way too but I will go out of my way to make small talk in return or voice that I am tired etc. Eventually the haircut was complete and I paid, (debit) headed out the door and when I turned over to look in the barber's direction he had the BIGGEST smile (whereas earlier he was dead Pan serious) on his face and told me "it looks so good on you" I smiled and said "thanks, it was hard to choose but I did it" strange, but okay. Update: My female partner came here and the owner told her many religious God related comments. We were not offended but for those who do not wish to discuss religion keep this in mind. By the way I love learning about all faiths, mindsets, beliefs systems and religions so it is fine by me.

The reason im writing this review is because when I called and asked if they cut young children's…read morehair (explaining to them my son was 3) they replied with a big yes, so I trusted their abilities with children. But their interaction with my 3 1/2 yr old was not as "child-friendly" as I was hoping. Yes they had a booster chair but that was about the only factor that made it a place for kids. Nice people, but a little too unprofessinal and an intimidating atmousphere for a young child. The energetic man who cut my son's hair was quite eccentric and seemed more interested in telling random stories to me and his co-worker then focusing on his haircut, or him and his comfortability. And when explaining how I'd like my son's hair cut I was interrupted and basically ignored. I was unhappy with the haircut and would never take him there again. I'd rather try cutting his own hair myself. If your child is 5 or 6, and you dont really care the quality of the cut, then go for it. In reality the Hair Connection is a small little place more for small little elderly women.

Second time, I requested something fun and got my nails painted like the galaxy. I received tons of compliments at work for both nail colors! The salon is not huge but I really like the vibe inside. Everyone was super nice, and the place did not smell like chemicals, which is a plus. Highly recommend!
