I was given the previous owner's email address and told to contact them directly, but the email bounced back. What was even more frustrating was that no one took the time to discuss my concerns or offer any real assistance. Instead, I was simply redirected to someone I could not reach. Unfortunately, the level of customer service has declined significantly and could use improvement.

The cut is exactly like the reference picture I showed her and the keratin has more than halved my dry/style time plus it's doing wonders for humidity management. Katrina was a joy to work with too- she really knows her stuff and does it well. One of the only salons in the area certified in Keratin application. I trust her with my hair and will be coming back in a month for color! (They're certified ballayage too!) Also, they have complimentary snacks and coffee. Katrina even helped me pick out some great products to keep my hair looking this good for as long as possible and I love them! Overall I can't recommend this place enough Katrina is amazing!! Great prices, vibes, and results.

I went to this business throughout the summer on multiple occasions to get color and a cut and…read morehighlights. They over charge A TON. Never in my life until I went to posh have I paid over 250 dollars for highlights and a cut... I had an appointment scheduled for November 9th I called and messaged the hair dresser personally to cancel the appointment on the 7th simply because I cannot afford the amount they charge. They have a 48 hour cancellation policy I called and texted the stylist 2hours outside this policy and she charged me 190 bucks and REFUSED to refund me. She said if I called 2 hours earlier she would have or if I agreed to reschedule she would give me half my money back. It wasn't until I told her I did not want to rebook that she charged me. I messaged the Facebook page to get in touch with the business owner who never responded. I then called the salon today and the owners assistant refused to let me speak to the owner about what happened. While I understand policies are in place it was extremely unprofessional of the stylist to tell me she understands things happen and then to go and charge me almost 200 bucks. Had she only charged 50 I wouldn't have minded. These actions reflect badly upon posh as not only a business but as human beings..... when someone is kind enough to call you and personally tell you that they are canceling due to finical barriers and you go and claim you understand then still take their money that's just degrading and disgusting. All I was told from the "assistant" was that "This is a very strict policy and everyone here has paycheck to make" and that "I won't listen to you call a stylist names" Mind you not once did I call names I said her actions were Grimey and unbecoming and unappealing. Not once did I even say the work she did on me previously was bad in the slightest. This is simply about affordability in a very terrible economy and about price gouging. Not once did the stylist or the assistant even attempt to resolve the issue for me not once did they even apologize either. The fact that a 2 hour gap is all that mattered says a lot to me about the lack of compassion and professionalism of this business Please see pictures attached for evidence

I went in for some fun streaks of color. My husband was there and remembers me carefully repeating…read moreto the stylist, "Just a few colorful streaks. Do NOT give me roots, because I will not keep up with covering gray hair." I told her that in two weeks were my 30th college reunion and a big family event I wanted to look especially good for. Well, the stylist did exactly what I said *not* to do. Partway through the process, there were so many foils that I said, "It looks like you're putting color on too much of my hair." She said she wasn't, and explained her process in stylist-ese that I didn't understand. The next morning revealed that she'd given me roots that started four inches from my scalp. From there to the ends, all my hair was colored! When I tied it up, it looked like I had on a cap of gray/brown hair with a multicolored ponytail attached to it. Yuck, clown time! I called the stylist and asked her to please, please get me back in for a repair. At this point, she had the opportunity to make me a loyal customer for life, if only she'd said, "I'm so sorry we misunderstood each other. Let's get you in and make it right." But no, she was defensive and deflective. She couldn't get me in before I left for my reunion/family trip, but then she said that she prefers to keep any color "adjustments" to within two weeks of the original color appointment. She took zero responsibility for the misunderstanding. She never once said she was sorry or tried to empathize. She even corrected the word "repair" to "adjustment." She tried to blame me, saying, "I asked you to bring pictures of what you wanted." When I then showed her photos, she said, "I guess I don't understand what you're looking for." Also, this stylist finishes other people's sentences. Not only is that annoying when I'm conversing with her, but it makes me think she isn't into listening to others. Fortunately, I found a wonderful local stylist (Side Porch Salon) who gives me awesome fun streaks of purple, etc., and Orbit in Burlington, where Kerry knows just how to cut my long, curly hair.

I asked to see if she had something around 3 and she said no she had some earlier and then asked how about another day. I said I wouldn't be around and then asked if she had any other times open today and she said don't you listen that is why I asked you if you had another day. Just straight rude.... I hate making appointments but figured it was the thing to do and not just walk in. But I guess I'm off to find someone new to cut my hair.
