I got a Snapstory from one of my friends and was blown away by her new hair color. So pretty--fresh, light, glossy. I demanded to know where she went. "Tanya at Head Rush," she eagerly shared. I called that day to book an appointment. My schedule is a little tight right now, but I did find a spot I could devote to my hair a couple weeks out. Tanya's hours seem very schedule-friendly.
When I walked in the blustery afternoon of my appointment, I looked like the weather: drab, dull, and losing light. When I walked out a couple hours later, I looked like an ice princess. I'll explain.
I sat in Tanya's chair and had a little consult. Not everyone understands I'm a "cool" blond (I prefer that over "ashy") and want to stay that way. I detest lots of warm yellows and golds, as they look terrible on me. Tanya 100% got it right off the bat, and devised a course of action to take me back to ice princess. Over the next couple hours, she did just that . . . and even I had fun. Tanya is adorable, funny, and relatable. Even though I've got twenty years on her, we talked like besties. It was probably the most fun I've had with a color appointment in, like, ever. AND the process didn't stink (like no overpowering this-is-searing-my-lungs chem smell). At all.
The salon itself is lovely. Country-modern decor, very clean, feels like home. One of the best things ever? When I got my foils out and hair washed, there's a little headrest. Gone is the awkward neck strain of hanging your giant head into a sink,the top of your spine pressing into a cold sink edge. I love that!!!
Everyone in there was friendly and helpful, and the place is so pretty. And I love my hair. I felt like me again (when I got home, even my husband said, "Oh, it's YOU again!"--he said this in a nice way, I promise). The pricing is very reasonable. This is a professional salon, with professional staff and professional product, yet you won't have to take out a loan to look pretty. Love this place, and will be back to check out even more offerings. Thank you, Tanya! read more
