When I found Todd and Helen...I was in my twenties and my hair was breaking and crap...the staff there fixed it and made it healthy again. That's going back over 20 years ago! When's the owner sold the place and moved down south.... The staff migrated out to Oakwood and I followed. I have since moved out of state and have had alot of bad experiences. I was basically told it was my hair ...and my hair was breaking at an alarming rate. The color was terrible too...being so many places passed the blame on my "difficult" hair...I almost believed it lol I decided to try one more thing....I searched for the old staff at the second place and found the salon closed because the owner passed away and had to do some searching to find them again. Happily..I found out nece recently bought this place not too far away. She's a new salon owner! I have known her since she was practically a kid ;) No lie and Quite literally..I drove to nyc (five hours) and in a last ditch effort, got it done by my old hairdresser. Melissa...who I have known since she was a shampoo girl ;) it's like walking back in time as far as my hair. Literally. It will take time to restore the color... And what's broken must grow...but my hair feels soo much better and not even a little breakage...none. You can tell the root area is very very different as far as health and there is so much promise. I wish I could package these people up... Since this salon is new to everyone else..I wanted to share my experience because it runs deep and goes back and if you have any hesitation...you are in good hands See you guys in a few weeks after another awful drive :)

I referred my mother to get her hair colored by Isabella on 06/21. I wanted to treat my mom…read more Unfortunately, my mother had a horrible experience with Isabella's work. After several people noticed my mother's hair, my mother also noticed so many demarcations in every section. The colorist also left out so many sections of outgrown greys, etc. My mother went out of her way to show the manager/owner that she's unhappy and upset. $400+ and the work was absolutely horrendous. The owner was not only rude to my mom but she also behaved unprofessionally as a business owner. She kept interrupting my mom non-stop and called her a liar. Not to mention my mother is a professional hair colorist and knows how the job should've been done. She also showed inspo photos to the stylist on the day of her appointment, obviously the girl took the easy route. Long story short, she told my mother to leave and to never come back. No client should leave the salon in tears. My mother is not the type to cause a scene or put down the colorist in front of the owner, she just wanted to be heard. My mother was asking for the coloration difference not the full refund and her request was still denied. This place may be super busy, but don't know how to treat their clients with respect. First time clients or not, this is not how you do business. At the end of the day it was never about the money. I'm posting this review on multiple platforms. Good luck to your business!

I have literally been coming to Chrysalis all my life (Mariarae gave me my first haircut when I was…read more2) and I always love getting my hair done here. Mariarae is my usual stylist and she knows my hair so well. Whether I'm just getting a trim or putting in highlights or anything else, she always knows what to do and she is just amazing! I have had haircuts from other staff members as well and everyone is really great. I always go here for special occasions too. Carolann did my hair for middle school graduation and I loved it. I had my hair done for senior prom yesterday by Tony, who did an incredible job. He has never worked with my hair before (I have thick hair that is not easy to manage) but he was so patient and precise about how it looked. I didn't really know what kind of style I wanted so he helped me figure it out...I pretty much just trusted him to do whatever he thought would look best based on the style and neckline of my dress. He is so knowledgeable and overall just awesome :D I'm getting my hair done at Chrysalis for graduation in a few weeks and I know they will do a great job! Always love it here :)

Terrible experience horrible dye job. I don't know what possessed me to try this salon but I made a…read moreHUGE mistake. For the last 20 years I have been a light blonde with a full head of highlights. I got sick for over a month and then had an accident and fractured 2 of my vertebrae so my gray hair was really horrible. I asked the owner if she could make my hair blonde all over but I wanted to not do highlights at that moment. She said sure see the blonde towards the middle to ends especially I can make you all blonde and get rid of all the grey. My husband was with me and asked for the price with a haircut. She quoted $50 fir for haircut and just roots was $50 and entire head of hair dyed would be $90 plus the haircut. I kind of felt that was a bit cheaper than I expected and reiterated that I would have all blonde hair as I had just get rid of the 3 inches of gray roots. She said absolutely. I made an appointment with her for a few days later. I went to the appointment and again made sure she understood that I wanted all blonde hair but no highlights this time. Highlights can be tricky and I needed to see her base work first. She put on the haircolor throughout my hair and I just waited to get washed out and have my hair cut. After she washed my hair and put a towel on my hair I sat in her chair and she removed the towel. I was Aghast! My hair looked brown o my god! She assured me that it was wet and when she blew it out it would be much lighter. She gave me a great haircut but as it was blown out dry I had light brown hair. She reassured me to give it time and my hair would lighten up a lot. My husband came back and liked the cut a lot but asked me why my hair was so dark and not blonde. He was also reassured that it was going to get lighter as I washed my hair. I was NOT HAPPY but I was pleased that the grey was gone. I must have been in shock because I didn't carry on about the color as I should have and let my husband pay her $155 cash plus I even paid her a 25.00 tip. I'm not one to start making a fuss and carry on in a place of business. Before I left I said It's not blonde and I received the same answer again. I should give it time to lighten up. It must have been the pain radiating from my fractured vertebrae I just wanted to go home and rest in my bed. Everyone that saw me after my botch hair appointment asked me why I made my hair dark. It never lightened up(how stupid was I)? I went back to talk to her a few weeks later because she said give it time. She blatantly lied to me about what she promised and had told me. She asked what I wanted her to do and I said give me some money back for color correction charges which I now have to have. She replied that I waited to long and she wasn't going to do anything. I was angry but she had another client in the store and it's not me to carry on in public. I cry every time I look in the mirror at my brown/reddish hair and just want to shave my head bald. STAY far away from this shop and young owner if you need your hair dyed. Don't be victimized by her lies. I'll never know why I went into that empty shop but I can prevent someone else.
