Indianola hit the jackpot when C&F showed up on the square. Moving to the area about 4 years ago, I…read morewas terrified to find a salon that I could trust for my hair care needs. I would normally drive up to Des Moines, cross my fingers i'd find someone who knows what they're doing, and then repeat again a few months down the road. Now, all I have to do is drive down the road, and all my worries vanish. For starters, the vibe is very relaxing. when I sit in their waiting area, I always feel like i'm at a girlfriends house for coffee. There's always someone at the front desk to greet you with a warm smile, and check you in for your appointment. Next- product. Long ago, I did marketing for a day spa back in New York, and I get a little judgmental on what products salons choose to carry. My jaw dropped to the floor with excitement when I saw that they carry Davines. It is 110% THE best haircare line you can find, and suitable for all hair textures-my daughter has straight long hair, and mine is VERY curly, and we're able to use the same shampoo & conditioner. I think product is extremely important for troubleshooting everyones unique hair needs. My daughter had severe dandruff/ cradle cap since she was a baby. I booked her an appointment recently with Morgan for a natural tech treatment, and I could not believe the difference! Oh, if I didn't mention, my daughter is 4.. beautiful salon that's kid friendly, and has product that is gentle enough for a tiny scalp, but powerful enough to shred through all that dead skin.. what a win! My son also gets his hair cut here (7y/o) usually with Maddie. She somehow is able to keep him sitting still in the chair, and always provides him with a clean fade, and a managable cut. I myself jump between Maddie & Morgan depending on my needs at the time. When I don't feel like dealing with my hair, I usually book with Maddie for a nice braid. I would also like to mention that their talent with coloring hair is pretty comparable with a big city - they execute their consultations so you feel confident in their work throughout the entire process. Kole especially does some incredible work!

Update: June 12 I have gone many times and today I was very disappointed in their professionalism. During my haircut every minute or two she would pause to answer the phone. I understand that it is important to answer to other customers but shouldn't someone else take care of the phone as well? I was not asked if I wanted my sideburns to be trimmed which is someone that seems to always be offered but maybe things have changed. The gel applied to my hair was very rushed as well. I have gone many times and really wonder if this is the same way the people I have recommended have been treated because I know I won't be recommending any more.

Beyond a Stylist: A True Angel on My Wedding Week…read more I cannot say enough about Tina--she went above and beyond in every possible way. Not only did she deliver a gorgeous hairstyle that made me feel beautiful and bridal, but she showed the kind of grace, patience, and kindness that every bride (and any average person) dreams of during such a chaotic time. I was 30 minutes late to our appointment--I was her last visit of the night, and I felt terrible for running behind with all the last-minute wedding errands. But instead of stress or judgment, I was met with total understanding. Her energy was calm, uplifting, and exactly what I needed in that moment. She even stood by my side as I called my tailor about a last-minute issue with my dress, and advocated for me on the phone. That's the kind of heart she has. She didn't have to do any of that, but she did--because that's who she is: thoughtful, supportive, and just an incredible human. Her presence helped ground me in the midst of the chaos, and her work made me feel beautiful. She's not just a hairstylist--she's a calming force, a hype woman, and someone I'd trust a hundred times over.

The proprietor is Tina Turner not the legendary Tina, but one just as astute that is in oils, weaves, press, curls and she could even create a fashionable lace wig for your outings. Perhaps the most notable for me would be the soothing wash and hot oil treatment. To hide that touch of grey you might treat yourself to a rinse. After all is said and done, you walk out with a style that you might just be able to keep up. The prices are modest-- with the new COVID procedures you will be asked Questions, temperature check, put on your mask, etc. Sanitation strategies are followed as well as most wearing a mask when they enter. I hate crowds, and stylists who are not time conscious as to my time as it relates to a scheduled appointment--Tina's pretty good at spacing out clients where you do not have to spend all day in the shop. Parking is good with a public parking lot next door. Customers must have a credit card on file and must schedule appointments--gone may be the days of "walk on in, " due to Corona. The environment is safe and pleasant. So if you need an up do or a down home style check the shop out --but call-- leave a message and wait for a response.
