I'm not sure what it is with me, but every time I go to get a haircut, I walk in feeling and looking like hangover haggard hell. Despite that, Deluxe and Marcel always seem to cure overly caffeinated, spacey me. I'm always greeted by someone who can obviously tell what I'm going through, because I'm always instantly offered water, coffee, or tea and a comfy place to sit and chill.
Then! When Marcel arrives, the conversation and the giggles get going as does the obligatory 'what to do with that hair on yo head' discussion. I'm picky about my bangs, but don't always know what to do with the rest of my hair and have had variations on the same cut for quite some time now. Marcel listened, figured out what would work with my face, and made it happen. He also did a great job on a single process color, making the perfect suggestions and helping me feel comfortable with what was about to happen. Having dyed my hair for many years now and done many strange but also wonderful things with it, my hair was kind of a wreck and as Marcel mentioned I have "stringy doodles". Well, he worked magic on my lil doodles not only with the color, but with the cut as well.
AHH this haircut!!! I NEVER instantly love a haircut and never do I wake up the next morning so in love with my hair. Since I'm lovin' all over these doodles the morning after, I figured I should just get this review out into the cloud of the internet. Like I said, I've been afraid to stray the least from the variations on what I thought was the perfect cut. Now last time I was in there, Marcel stuck with my preferences and fixed up that cut perfectly. This time, however, we did something a little different and despite my hesitation, I knew Marcel would make everything right. He knew exactly what to do and did it perfectly.
Everything turned out better than I could have ever hoped. This salon is adorable and the service is always fun and friendly. I never fail to have the perfect hungover conversation in there and everyone else always seems to be having a great time and yeah, everyone looks DAMN good. I love Marcel and he will do you right ;) but everyone in there was walking out with great cuts and color from all of the stylists. Deluxe provides my ideal salon experience with beautiful magazines, trashy magazines, cute decor, great products for sale, and the best damn haircuts/colors everrrrr. I just have to add real quick that I just love waitin for my color to set on the bench outside with a plastic cap on my head, a cigarette, and a People magazine. I mean, when else can you grandma-out like that and get the chance to read some gossip?!
Just do yourself the favor and hit it up, cuz boo, you gon' be lookin and feelin so damn good when you walk out of here. read more
