It was my first time ever coming here, and I gave Grace my complete trust. I requested a hush cut…read moreservice, and I absolutely love how my hair turned out. Grace immediately got to work after we communicated what I was looking for, using the reference photos she asked for along with her own input as a hush cut specialist. The salon itself is very clean, airy, and modern. Despite looking small from the outside, it doesn't feel small at all. There's no strong chemical smell from hair dyes, ammonia, or bleach, which I really appreciated. The staff are super friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. I would definitely come back again in the future. After the cut, my confidence level boosted so much. Thank you Grace.

When reasonable pre-service questions about timing, sessions, cost, and hair health are treated as…read morea problem, that's something potential clients should know. I reached out before booking a $500-$600 hair service because I genuinely care about my hair and wanted to be thoughtful before committing. I asked straightforward questions about how many sessions it might take, how long it would take, pricing, and how my hair health would be handled. These were not abstract questions. They were about my own hair and my own money. At first, I was told I could come in for a more direct consultation. When I followed up and asked when a good time would be, the tone changed. I was told this is "not an educational organization," that questions about my own hair should be directed to my previous stylist, and that consultations were not available because they were "too busy," especially on Fridays and Saturdays. That honestly caught me off guard, especially after being encouraged to come in. It started to feel like asking questions at all was unwelcome. What bothered me wasn't that they were busy. I get that. It was how I was shut down. Instead of simply saying we might not be the right fit, the responses felt dismissive and made it seem like I was being difficult for wanting clarity. I stayed polite the entire time and never asked for anything unreasonable. I just didn't want to walk in blind. This experience was especially disappointing because I chose this salon intentionally after reading negative reviews and believing the public responses showed care and accountability. I understand every business has bad reviews and nobody is perfect. But after this interaction, those reviews suddenly made a lot more sense. I'll be honest: I almost booked based on the photos alone. The work looks beautiful. But talent isn't the only thing that matters. Integrity, communication, and having a client's best interest in mind matter just as much. Sharing this so others know to read beyond the pictures and decide for themselves what kind of experience they want. No one should feel small or brushed off for asking questions before paying for a service.

My experience at Chateau Salon in Montrose, CA was so disappointing that it prompted me to write my…read morefirst-ever review. I booked an "Occasion Styling" appointment ($120) with Marie Kazarian for my Senior Prom after being recommended by a friend who had a positive experience at the salon for the same service. Two days before my appointment, Marie texted asking for photos of the styles I wanted. I sent two options, and she assured me she could do both. When I arrived, she asked to see my Prom dress and suggested we go with an updo instead of a half-up, half-down style. From the start, the appointment felt unprofessional. She didn't ask any questions about my hair type, texture, or how it holds style. She began curling my hair with a large-barrel curling iron but used no heat protectant or styling products. The curls fell out within minutes. When attempting the updo, it quickly became clear she didn't have a plan. The result was a stiff, messy bun with random pieces pinned awkwardly--completely different from what I had shown her. After two failed attempts, I asked her to switch to a half-up, half-down style, hoping it would be easier. At that point, I felt frustrated because I shouldn't have to lower my expectations when I'm paying for a specific look. Unfortunately, the second attempt was no better. She pulled my hair into an uneven ponytail with no teasing, shaping, or effort to match the reference photos. I became so upset that I started crying and texted my mom, who was sitting across the salon. My mom ended up stepping in to help guide Marie because it was clear she didn't know how to execute the style. The entire experience was incredibly upsetting. I spent the rest of the appointment in tears, and despite other stylists clearly seeing how distressed I was, as I made eye contact with various of them, no one offered assistance. When Marie's next client arrived, I had to leave with my hair unfinished and poorly styled. What stood out the most was how completely unapologetic Marie was throughout the entire appointment. At no point did she acknowledge that things were going wrong, offer a solution, or show any concern for how upset I was. Instead, she dismissed the situation by saying, "It's going to look better when you have your dress and makeup on," which only made things worse. I ended up going home and having to completely redo my own hair for Prom after paying $120 for a professional service. That alone says everything. I left the salon having paid for a hairstyle that looked nothing like what I requested and for one of the worst service experiences I've ever had. Marie came across as unprepared, inattentive, and completely unconcerned with client satisfaction. DO NOT BOOK WITH MARIE KAZARIAN!

Kristy is a gem!! As for the shop in general, it is always clean and well maintained. Everyone in the shop is pleasant. Most of the other people working there seem to be barbers and clients are males getting haircuts. They give good clean cuts from what I've seen. I really like the shop's online booking system. Makes it easy and convenient to book appointments. The system sends text confirmations and reminders too. The only downside can be parking, especially at lunchtime. The parking lot is very small and there is a restaurant that shares the space. Street parking is available though. All in all Eddie's Edition is a good shop barber cuts and limited women's styling.
