My makeup and hair held up all day and night, and I got so many compliments throughout the day. In addition to being incredibly talented, she was great to communicate with (critical, as I was planning my wedding from across the country), and was awesome to be around in-person too. I truly enjoyed spending time with Sarah and feel very, very lucky that I found her. I give her the highest of recommendations!

Sarah did such a fantastic job of doing beautiful hair and makeup for me, my maid of honor, mom,…read moreand mother-in-law the day of my wedding! She does such a great job of listening to what you would like and translating that to how it would work best for your hair length, type, skin type, and wedding themes. I did a consult with her before the wedding where she walked through her entire process and we discussed what the wedding design is like, as well as what hair and makeup would work best for my dress and venue. The day of the wedding she got along swimmingly with my friends and family and was incredibly supportive during those little stressful moments that inevitably happen. Where my mom was uncomfortable wearing too much makeup as to not feel like herself, Sarah understood and gave her enough makeup to enhance her beauty and come across in photos, but not feel uncomfortable. I would absolutely recommend Sarah and Finishing Touch to anyone who wants to feel heard by their hair and makeup artist and wants to feel confident and beautiful on their wedding day! Thanks Sarah!

I came here for a brow and lip wax. The service was quick and the woman who did my brows was fairly…read morefriendly. I left the salon happy about my brows. However, about ten minutes after I left the salon my brows continued stinging. I looked Into a mirror and saw that my eyebrows were completely burned. You can see the injuries in the photos, but my skin was burned from the wax. I called to ask for a refund, but I was asked to come all the way back to the salon so they could examine the eyebrows for themselves. They were very defensive when I mentioned my burns, and they did not offer me an apology. As I couldn't come back to the salon afterwards, I did not get a refund either. I now have bad burns around my eyes, had to pay for the wax still, and was not apologized to. I would not recommend this place! A pic immediately and next day is provided

As a 42 year old woman, I can only say ONCE in my life has a hairstylist ever actually looked at an…read moreinspiration photo I've provided and been able to replicate it exactly as I see it. That one time was my recent experience with Laura Belle at Sequoia Salon. Laura Belle is extremely talented, kind, caring- everything you'd hope for in a person you're trusting with your appearance! She's incredibly intelligent and you can not only anticipate looking amazing after, but also enjoying lively conversation during your visit. She's a wealth of knowledge on many interesting and entertaining topics. I can tell you I will be visiting Laura Belle again in the future, and if you want to look your absolute best, you should go see her too! :)

I'd been looking for a hair colorist in Vermont after having lackluster results at another salon…read moreand am so glad my search led me to Laura Belle! She is a color wizard and a delightful person to chat with, too. I wanted very subtle highlights and lowlights just to cover up a few greys and give my hair a refresh, and she hit the nail on the head. My hair looks natural and pretty and the highlights are subtle. Also the salon is a very chill and relaxing place to spend a few hours!

OMG, I hit the jackpot of the highest scores on finding Philip Clark the nail guru at Scherdiva…read moresalon!! I've tried many salons throughout the Vermont and New Hampshire area and I always felt like just a number. The last salon pedicure visit to a high reviewed salon in NH took 3 HOURS and left me with tears in my eyes and horrible pain in my toes from having them filed to the point of blood, even with me telling her to stop I've had enough she continued to say "no no 5 more minutes, you're not done yet!" Phil is meticulous with your mani/pedi, offers paraffin and has a wide array of powders, gels and colors to choose from. Phil treats each of his clients with the utmost respect. I already booked my next mani/pedi with Phil

What a nice surprise to find such a gem in Essex. He is completely professional is up on the latest trends and is very communicative about what you want and what will work best for your hair. I first found this salon a few months back when I had my cut and color done and man, did he do an excellent job. I returned for my pre-wedding hair cut, color and fashion strands and I seriously looked like a model. He's a hair whisperer --and so funny and nice! Thank you Robert for making me feel so beautiful :-)

*****disclaimer: This IS NOT a FALSE NAME or review!!! Yelp allows sign in based on Facebook…read more Since the owner of this salon does not respect anyone's privacy I needed to clarify that. Her response only shows her level of unprofessionalism and dishonesty. I am seeking a FULL refund as I have from the beginning of her non attention to her mistake!***** Unprofessional from the beginning and I should have listened to my instinct. I booked an appointment over a month in advance for a full highlight and trim. I specified what I needed / wanted from the beginning. The owner of the salon, Ellie, said it Would not be a problem as she had decades of experience. After booking, about one week away from my appointment, I received a text stating I was booked for a partial highlight and cut. This made me nervous. I called and no one answered so I left a message and emailed to confirm my appointment was for a full and a trim. I was assured it was, but never received a call only an email. Ellie and I had several in-depth emails describing what I wanted / needed, I showed Ellie a picture. She said it was not a problem. When the appointment began we again consulted and I showed her a picture. She assured not a problem. She continued to trim my hair before beginning and then put in foils and shampooed. Unknown to me she was also using other treatments. I was never asked if I wanted any of these, she just did them. I have never had a stylist simply apply product I should have been charged for. At the end of the appointment she began styling my hair and I asked if she could finish framing my face, as I never received an actual cut. This was extremely unprofessional and the "trim" she did looks awful and uneven and my face is not framed. I then paid for what I thought was a full highlight and trim. I thought it was VErY high but chose to think the best and that she would address the color issue if need be because she knew I was not happy and reassured me. I also tipped accordingly as I thought she would stand behind her work. What stylist wants their customer to look like a skunk?! The result of this experience was anything except what I wanted. I expressed this via email, as she never answers the phone, and was met with little empathy or desire to make the client happy from the Ellie. I paid for what I believed was a full high and trim. It was almost $300 after all. Instead, Ellie told me the yellow would fade in a few days, it has not, and she only booked and charged me for a partial, and she only charged me extra for one service and a $65 haircut. She said she had not paid attention to the issue of a full or partial, even though she confirmed a full, highlight as she is not a receptionist. She went on to state the prices online are out dated and if I wanted more fouls or anything fixed I needed to pay more. Any issues regarding her prices were a result of my "personal budgeting" issues. So not only do I get what I paid for, but now I have to pay her to fix her mistake. In no world does this make sense to me. End result, I have yellow hair on the top of my head and deep, dark brown underneath, and no hair cut. She has made NO effort to actually fix HER mistake. STAY AWAY unless you like throwing money down the drain...better yet do something useful with it and give it away to someone in need. HORRIBLE!!!!!

To keep it short, I'll just hit a few points: 1. The room…read morewas nowhere near the luxurious spa price point... it was like staying in a motel room that hadn't been renovated since 1995. It seems like multiple people have had this experience. The AC/heating unit in our room was so loud that it was difficult to sleep! 2. The spa experience and staff also failed to meet the mark of the luxurious experience this place promises (especially for the price.) The message therapists were very chatty. I am polite, but I don't want to be having a personal conversation while getting massaged. The masseuse massaging my wife kept commenting on how tense my wife felt during the massage and said, "Wow, you really can't relax" and then also said "I think you're the type of person that needs to talk during this in order to relax" (which, I can assure you, is the farthest thing from the truth when it comes to my wife. She does not want to chit chat.) Overall, the entire experience just rubbed me the wrong way and seemed to lack professionalism and the quality of a truly upscale spa. 3. Every single meal, the staff always mixed up our bill, even mixing it up a second time in one meal after we corrected them on which room number to charge.

After THE…read morestylist had shampooed her hair, she came running to find me in the store announcing she could not continue the haircut because my daughter had head lice. Obviously, my daughter was extremely upset. We quickly left and racked our brains where she may have gotten the lice... but we were a little skeptical. After looking at her scalp, I decided to bring her to a walk-in urgent care clinic to confirm the diagnosis. The Doctor Who examined her was positive that It was NOT head lice at all, rather, she had a dry scalp and some flaky skin. Really unhappy with the fact this woman upset and embarrassed my daughter not to mention we were unable to get her the cut she needed before going back to school. We have previously had pretty good experiences with the Ulta stylist team, but this new hire definitely leave something to be desired both in her knowledge of hair and scalp conditions, as well as appropriateness when delivering potentially upsetting news to a client.
