    Perfect wedding updo!
    Brianna C.

    Stephanie did my updo as well as my bridesmaids' (5) and mom's for my wedding on 6/18/2016. She did an amazing job and I would recommend her services to anyone. Prior to the wedding, I had two hair trials with her. After sending emails back and forth, discussing looks I was interested in, we had our first trial. It was amazing and she nailed the look that I requested. But when I realized that the look I initially liked wouldn't go best with my dress, Stephanie was more than willing to do another hair trial. She was very professional and took no offense to me wanting to try another look--which I really appreciated! We discussed alternatives to the first look and the second trial went perfectly. The final product was awesome! For the bridesmaids, Stephanie offered 5 really pretty (and reasonably priced) updos that she could do for each girl but was also flexible if the girls wanted something different. As we got closer to the wedding date, Stephanie went above and beyond my expectations, working with the makeup artist to come up with the best getting-ready timeline for the morning of. She came up with a schedule which budgeted for hair and makeup and left extra room if we fell behind at all. I very much appreciated this because it was one less thing that I had to think about. And because I have pretty unruly curly hair, Stephanie also offered to come to my house the day before the wedding to do a blowout so she could really focus on my updo the next day. This was very helpful and allowed the next morning to go smoothly. Stephanie is very prompt, organized, and professional in how she conducts her business. She answers emails almost instantly and is very thorough in her responses. She really listened and she took the time to make sure she understood exactly what I wanted. She made the wedding planning process easier. In this regard, I would recommend her to anyone. She's also an absolute artist! I was in love with my updo. And the styles she made for my bridesmaids were incredible! Each one was unique. For any Game of Thrones fans out there, I told her she made us look like our own versions of Khaleesi. So in addition to being a pleasure to work with professionally, she's also a hair styling expert! She displays a lot of creativity in all of her looks and can accommodate different hair textures and lengths easily. If you want to have a beautiful and unforgettable updo for you wedding, go with Stephanie!

    Victory rolls for the hair and more natural look and smoky eye for the face.  I loved it!

    Several weeks ago, I stopped by Ricci's to schedule an appointment. I had previously gone to…read moreBre-Elle in Wallingford, which is amazing, but I have since moved. I stopped at Riccis's on a weekend, the gentleman at the front desk was very knowledgeable and and spent a good amount of time helping me book my appointment, I specifically asked for someone that was good with blondes and adding some funky color, like purple. He said that Taylor would be good for me. Needless to say, I was so excited to get my hair done, as it had been a long time. I arrived on time for my appointment. When my stylist came to greet me, I could immediately tell that she did not have good energy. As someone who had never been there, or having been a new customer to the stylist, Taylor, I was expecting her to greet me with a modicum of excitement, even a smile. She did not. I followed her back to her chair and sat down. As I was explaining, mind you, the EXACT SAME THING, that I had discussed with the scheduler, she looked right at me and said, "if we do that, the color will bleed everywhere". I have being going to a salon for MANY years and have had purple color in my hair for at least 8 years, it has never bled everywhere. Not once. I thought, not a deal breaker, I moved on to the blonde color, she then told me that she didn't know if she would have time to do the entire head. I was a little taken a back because this appointment was scheduled based on the time it would take to do the ENTIRE head and put color in, because why was I there if she could not do anything I asked?. I wasn't rude, I maintained my composure and tone, I simply said, "Clearly you don't want to do my hair and there was a breakdown in communication somewhere from making the appointment to showing up, so I will be leaving". Taylor did not say one word, not an apology, not anything to fix this wrong, that she caused. This was the most UNPROFESSIONAL hair stylist that I have ever been to. She did not apologize; she did NOTHING to make me comfortable and quite frankly, she was INCREDIBLY rude. I am sure the owner was notified, if not, that is shameful, but someone should have reached out to me to attempt to right this wrong, or, at the VERY LEAST, apologize. Taylor is the most unprofessional person that I have ever met and she should NOT be working with the public if that is the way she treats her customers. Shame on Ricci's for employing her.

I have a lot of hair, and it had not seen scissors or color since early January, except for that frightful bangs trim I gave myself. I was a little nervous about the reception I would receive. When I arrived for my appointment, I was greeted by Daniel, who checked me in and offered me a beverage. I accepted the offer of water, but that Mimosa was pretty tempting on a Friday afternoon! Shortly thereafter, I met Gianna. What a love! We hit it off right away. And she didn't hate my hair! She looked at a photo of how I'd like it cut, we talked about the color and since it had been so long, she took 2" off the ends, cut a bunch of layers into the style and gave me the refresh I so desperately needed! The salon itself is nicely decorated and trendy. There are several style stations and a separate room with more stations and an area with sinks and an area for mixing color. All of the stylists and assistants were friendly and really appeared to like what they do. It was nice to see that the stylists supported and complimented each other's work. I booked a return appointment when I paid and truly look forward to going back. I will definitely recommend Whip Salon to my friends! I'm sorry, I didn't take photos!

    All but two of the most recent reviews refer to Sandy Hook Hair Company, which closed in 2019 (see…read morehistory description) after nearly 25 years. The owner, Bonnie Fredericks, retired and the stylists work elsewhere. Salon Newtown is part of an expanding franchise (https://www.whipsalon.com/franchise). This franchise location was bought in 2019 by a stylist known as Marcelle Tiffany. The salon is tastefully decorated, making most of the limited space. Parking is easy. Of note, the salon is acting as a trailblazer of sorts ... participating in the Local Green Salon initiative, in which chemical-contaminated metal waste from color treatments are recycled. Wondering about the name? In a Nov/Dec 2019 SalonToday.com article, the franchise founder, Amy Pai, claims it's a slang term for hair. As it's the first reference I've come across, perhaps it's a term she created to help the franchise stand out. Adding to confusion, the "slang" term is popularly used as a verb in salon promotions (e.g. #getwhipped ) , inviting speculation about the origin of inspiration. Definitely brings attention!

As a curvier bride, I was definitely intimidated to start wedding dress shopping because of the sizing industry, but Denise and her team completely changed that for me. They were so welcoming, so kind, and honestly made the whole experience fun instead of stressful. When I went to try on dresses, I ended up finding my dream dress! Their selection is beautiful, thoughtfully curated, and not at all overwhelming. The boutique itself feels homey and personal, which made the experience even more special. From the very beginning, everyone I worked with went above and beyond. Cecile helped me find my dress, and Emmy guided me when I picked it up and chose my veil--they were both absolutely wonderful. Patient, kind, and genuinely excited for me, they made the process so smooth and enjoyable. I cannot recommend The Persnickety Bride enough to any bride--whether you're in Fairfield, New Haven, Putnam County, or even farther away, this is worth the trip. You simply won't find a better experience than this one!

We had only gone to one other bridal salon before going to the Persnickety Bride... and it was not a great experience to say the least. But the Persnickety Bride was completely different! Aeryn, Denise's daughter, helped us and she was amazing! She is so knowledgeable and really knows how to hype you up! She actually was the one who picked out the wedding. She recommended it to me when I first got to the store... and I knew it was the one pretty early on. But all of the dresses she tried on were gorgeous! This dress is so unique and so delicately put together. We have never seen anything like it before :) My husband and guests were also was blown away the day of the wedding!!! Thank you so much to both Aeryn and Denise for helping me find my dream dress :) So excited for your new and larger location... We have already recommended your shop a bunch to people and will continue to do so! Thank you :)
