I was absolutely devastated when my hairstylist moved states. I tried other hairstylists, and…read morenobody was clicking. I really let myself go and felt terrible. I did some research for a local hairstylist and I came across Carrie and decided to give her a try. It was nice she has online booking... I usually don't book unless there's online booking. Anyways, I sat down and told Carrie I'm feeling ugly. I wanted a very asymmetrical Bob, which nobody seemed to be able to give me and some color underneath. I also have a hair, pulling disorder, called trichotillomania, and don't usually open up about it, but Carrie made me feel as if I could tell her anything. Since my hair had to be bleached, the process took several hours, but we talked the entire time. I feel like I've been friends with Carrie for years. At the end, I seriously teared up. I don't think she knew that because I felt absolutely wonderful by the haircut and the color. Carrie's incredibly humble and to my surprise when she showed me the price, I thought it was going to be a lot more. But given how humble she is, she refuses to charge an insane amount of money as some stylist do. If you love good music like, classic punk rock and Elvis Presley, you'll be in for a treat because Carrie does too. 100% recommend Carrie over and over again. And if Carrie is reading this, you are an amazing soul.

Trista is amazing!…read more I have mixed hair so it can be daunting to try and find someone who understands what my hair needs. I got my hair cut and deep conditioned on my first visit and then got my hair colored with peek a boo blue highlights on my second visit. I love how my hair turned out and can't wait to keep experimenting with it in the future w/ Trista. She saw my vision and didn't crush my hopes when I told her I wanted blue hair. To me, having a stylist who keeps it real but also tries to make the customer happy is a dime a dozen. The vibe of the shop is hip and fresh too so you feel like you're in a place where people walk out looking like their best. I love my hair. Definitely recommend this salon!

I almost don't want to write this review, seeing as it's hard enough to get an appointment as is,…read morebut given how good Trista and Columbo are they deserve the praise. As a guy that has never went to a salon to see a stylist and always stuck with his afro/fades, I was a bit at a loss of what to do, especially without dear old mom at my side. Scouring the internet for stylists that had experience with textured hair, I contacted a few, but ultimately found hope in the form of the Hair Social. Seeing fellow POC raving about Trista, I decided to go with her. After getting in contact with her, we set up a consulting session. Meeting her during our consultation I felt at ease instantly, she was very welcoming and wanted to understand exactly what I was going for. Seeing what I wanted she gave me a couple of options while asking me about how long I wanted to keep the style, and what kind of maintenance I would do to maintain it, to narrow down what would be best for me. Her "can do" attitude was rejuvenating, given that another stylist I contacted basically said what I wanted couldn't be done. We scheduled two appointment the week before Christmas, one for her husband, Columbo, the barber and co-owner of the business, whom I would get the first part of my style from, and the other for her. Both her and her husband are appointment only, but she was very flexible in regards to my schedule. You can tell that Columbo and Trista are a solid team. As soon as I walked in for my haircut with him, he knew what hair style I wanted and how to go about it, given that I talked with Trista about it. He had skill! So much in fact, that I almost started changing my mind about getting my hair styled after seeing the reactions to my hair cut! The next day during my styling session with Trista she went over what she was doing as she was doing it, so I wouldn't be left in the dark about what was going on. We talked like we were old friends, no awkward silences or anything. When she was finished, I was in awe of my hair. Months of growing it out and it was finally the curly masterpiece I envisioned it to be! All for $110 (and that's including generous tips). I've gotten sooooo many compliments on my hair, it's ridiculous. After our session, she even sent me an e-mail of what products to get to maintain my hair and an approximate time of when I should come back to check my hair's progress. Y'all have a customer for life!

The last time I went to Stephen Todd's mobile salon was on my birthday. I was hoping for a nice…read morebirthday experience, but instead, I got a 15-minute SuperCuts-style BAD haircut! Apparently, this man had an actual salon pre-Covid. And after losing that, he has been schlepping his mobile trailer across town to various parking lots for the past 5 years. I can't speak for his pre-Covid salon, but my experience in his trailer was very disturbing! Not only was the haircut bad, but Stephen Todd also seemed to be highly agitated in very close trailer quarters. A substance problem? A hangover from the night before? Mental issues in general? I have no idea---but this guy was not a professional, not a good stylist. Just some creepy, agitated, addled guy in a hair-cut trailer----to AVOID, gals! p.s. Stephen Todd just responded that my above was a "fake review" and that I was an "evil person." Nah. It's just that I think Todd has, for years, gotten away with behaving in a creepy, unprofessional manner, especially once he was reduced to his trailer. Most of us women go to a hair-stylist for a relaxing hour in the afternoon! When I visited his mobile trailer, this guy was clearly either ON something (or recovering from something the night before) and wasn't there to provide any sort of "good experience" to me or ANY client. It's not "evil" to speak the truth.

After speaking with Lecia on the phone, I could tell she was someone I would want to have around while getting ready for the biggest day of my life! She had so much energy and a big personality which I loved. After sending Lecia a few pictures of makeup and hairstyles I liked, I went to Russ & Co. for my trial run/bridal portrait hair & makeup. I was so happy with the results! She asked me for details about my dress, flowers, colors, etc. so that she could have an idea of what makeup would look best and made me look gorgeous. I especially loved the airbrush makeup. I had never used it before and it made my skin look so smooth and not at all cakey or overdone. Lecia was so much fun to have around on my wedding day! She and Deborah showed up ready to do hair and make up for me and my 5 bridesmaids. They kept us all on schedule and had a ton of fun singing along to our wedding day playlist. After seeing how great of a job they did on me and the girls, a few other people asked if Lecia & Deborah could squeeze them in and they got it done without a problem. We were all pretty and ready to go when our limo arrived. I felt so pretty on my wedding day all thanks to Lecia.
