Shorter, to the point review:
I HIGHLY recommend this salon!! the clerks and hairstylist are very friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled. Making an appointment was easy, my hair stylist Sarah Baraisto ( I think I spelled her name wrong just ask for Sarah with a "H") totally understood what I wanted and what I didn't want, I even brought in pictures and she was happy to look at them. She did a remarkable job with my hair color and the cut. Everyone in the salon that worked there were impressed as well! Overall I was very VERY impressed with this salon, and incredibly happy with how Sarah did my hair with the balayage highlights and cut. I will definitely be coming back to her for anything/everything hair related! :)
Detailed Review:
Omg where do I even begin. First off making an appointment with this hair salon was SUPER easy and fast and that is saying something because I absolutely hate calling t make an appointment anywhere. The clerk I talked to was very helpful and nice.
Walking into the the salon was very comforting and everyone was so nice, I was honestly relieved. I don't know about you, but I am always scared that when I walk into a hair salon they will be judging me ( I have had very bad experiences at hair salons). That was not this place I checked in with a friendly person at the desk who asked me if she could get me anything to drink, making sure I was comfortable, etc. I waited a couple minutes for my hair stylist, Sarah Baraisto before she brought me back.
Now onto my color and cut. I was very specific about the color I wanted to get and the cut. I have not had my hair touched by anyone in over 2 years because the last time I got it cut was a disaster. I brought in pictures and showed her what I wanted and what I absolutely did NOT want. I wanted a light balayage highlight done to my hair, but I did not want anything that looked like regular highlights, nothing that looked orange, or bronzey AT ALL. She totally understood what I wanted and made sure with me that she completely understood what I wanted before she did anything with it. She was so knowledgeable in colors and hair styles!
My color: light ombre/balayage color with my natural light brown hair as the base. I did not want any kind of brassy, bronze, or red in my hair and I did not want the balayage high lights to be blonde or too bold. I wanted them to fade nicely from my natural hair into the new color.
My cut: I asked for cascading layers with the layers textured so that they would not be blunt.
When she was doing my hair she took her time making sure everything was just right with the colors. She offered me something do drink or a magazine which I thought was really nice of her. She was also very personable she asked about me and my mom, who was also getting her hair done, school, etc... She was incredibly awesome and fun to talk to! We basically talked the whole time and I actually really enjoyed it. :)
When the color was done she rinsed my hair thoroughly and used a toner on my hair, then cut it. I have to say she did an AMAZING job cutting it as well. then she blow dried it. While using some products which she didn't push on me at all! She would just tell me what this product was used for and how sh was applying it and what else it could be used for.
After the style I was INSANELY impressed by the color, the cut, the customer service, just everything! I would HIGHLY recommend this salon, everyone there seems to be well experienced in what they do but if you need a color or cut definitely try and get Sarah Baraisto! I think I spelled her last name wrong but she said to just ask for the Sarah with a 'H'. Seriously she is THE best and I definitely will be coming back here for anything hair related! read more
