A friend recently went to Harlow Salon and mentioned that the "suggested tips" at the end were…read moreutterly outrageous. Her story reminded me of my own disappointing Harlow experience several years ago. I always meant to write a review, but never got around to doing so. I went for a men's shampoo and cut from the owner Kelli hoping to improve on the basic barber experience. Nope. Kelli took about 20 minutes on me from start to finish; same as a barber. I recall lots of banter with her colleagues in the shop during the rushed shampoo and cut. Seemed like Kelli was more interested in socializing than cutting hair. The uneven, mediocre results required plenty of touchups with my own electric trimmer when I looked in my bathroom mirror afterwards. Oh well. Lesson learned. I never returned. I don't recall the cost of the service; I think it was $35 plus tip. However I absolutely remember the outrageous "suggested tips" when presented with the credit card payment screen to sign -- 30%, 35%, 38%. What a load of baloney!

The salon booked me with level 4 stylist, Amie. She is very personable and we chatted the whole time. All of the employees that work for the salon seem to enjoy the work environment and culture, which always makes the experience pleasant for customers. I was the only customer in the salon for the majority of my cut--wouldn't have minded if it had been slammed. Amie gave me the best "wash before cut"! TBH can relax myself just thinking about the head massage. All of the hair products used on me were up to standards. The hair cut itself gets a 10/10...just the right length and amount of layers. Thanks Amie :) I will be back!

This time she was with a dofferent stylist, Rylie, who decided to do a "root smudging" treatment without informing her or telling her it would bring her total to $290 including tip. When I called to discuss the person on the phone said no one was there to remedy the situation. She said she would get back to me before the end of the day and she did not. My daughter was totally taken advantage of and this was very unethical. They advertise transparency on their website but that was definitely not our experience. Buyer beware. Very disappointed in their lack of attention to make this right. Instead a received a text saying that she consulted my daughter before doing the root smudge. Never were these words used and never did Rylie tell her this was an additional cost to whatever she supposedly did. Her hair doesn't even look different from when she went it. Crooks.

I've never been picky. Make sure when you go you get a stylist that's been there a good while.

That visit went really well and as a bonus, my wife had the "tryout" hairstyle for the rehearsal dinner that evening On the day of the wedding, Taylor got everything looking picture-perfect in less than an hour and we were very happy with the look she created!

And, I kid you not, they texted me the morning of my appt, again, to tell me they needed to reschedule my appt. After alerting them that this was the second time in a row this had happened, they gave me a cancellation slot for 4pm, which I accepted. At 3:45pm, I get a text that they need to move my appt to 4:30 because they are running behind. I accept. When I'm finally seen at 5pm, Chris is cranky that he's covering someone else's appt and it's clear he wants to go home. When he realizes that I need a color correction, I believe he almost had a tantrum, knowing it was going to be a process. I was prepared for the correction to take more than one visit and asked him to do what he could. He eventually even refuses to do a test strip on my hair to make sure I can move forward with another stylist the following day. Washes my hair and flat out refuses to do anything. And ensures me that someone will be able to do my hair the following day. The scheduler says they are completely booked for the foreseeable future so I just leave. With wet hair, and zero words to describe this experience other than inexcusable. To be fair, the manager did call me the next day to try to clear up the situation by asking for my side of events. But they'd already lost me as a customer at that point. She told me it would take multiple appointments to get my hair where I wanted. I ended up making an appt at Lava Salon with Emma instead who got me EXACTLY where I wanted to be in one appointment lasting 3 hours. I would not recommend Urban Nirvana for anything other than a trim and if you are ok with being treated poorly.
