This review is of the JCP Salon. I tried to make an appointment with my normal stylist, but she was not in, and would not be in for a few weeks. I talked to another stylist on the phone and told her what I wanted. She said "I could do that haircut in my sleep." I decided since I was just going in for a trim to my normal haircut, and some additional highlights, I would go ahead and book the appointment. This stylist did not listen to me. She dry cut my hair, when I have never had a haircut turn out well like that. She had also told me that she had spoke to my regular stylist and she knew what root color to use. When it came to the root color she brought me the book and pointed to crazy purplish reds that she thought would look nice. I told her no, I wanted it to look natural. She said she understood. I also only wanted a natural red underneath, with blonde highlights on the top. The same as I came in with. All this was the same as I had gotten before, just 2 months before. I was not trying to reinvent the wheel. I was very clear. She put the root color and highlights in, then washed my hair. She turned my chair around so my back was too the mirror, wanting to do a "big reveal" at the end. She told me she was going to make some minor adjustments to my cut. I started getting really concerned when just as much hair was falling as the first time she cut it. I should also mention, that I was there for 3.5 hours, and it has never taken that long to do a cut and color in my life. After she styled it, she turned the chair around and it was awful. I had orange streaks running throughout my hair, and my hair was crazy short. She said she cut the front shorter to accentuate my round face. I had asked for an A-line style with the front longer to take away from my round face. Also the same as I had. I have a professional job, and this look was horrible for my job and for me as a person. It looked more like I should be hanging out at a club, rather than going to a meeting. It is going to take months to grow this out. I had to go to another salon the next day, to fix the color. There was nothing that could be done about the length. I had small pieces of hair sticking up all over the top of my scalp. The new stylist told me this was due to her using the thinning sheers to close to my head. I took that receipt to JCP and with some arguing they refunded the amount of the bill to fix the color. It is tolerable now, but still not what I asked for. One of two things happened. She either messed up and had to cut shorter to fix it, or she did what she wanted. I am inclined at this point to believe she thought she knew better than me, and she did what she wanted thinking I would love it. I did not. I HATED it. People have told me it makes me look older, and my face looks fuller. Neither of these are ever desirable to hear. Also, I tried to contact the JCP salon manager the next morning, and instead for trying to help me I got brushed off. I think they were just hoping I would drop it. I am sure there are some decent stylists there, but I will never go back after this fiasco. read more
