I had been debating on getting another hair cut for the last week or so because I really wasn't satisfied with the last one I received elsewhere a few weeks ago.
Tonight I had to pick up some paint brushes from Michaels, I'm usually never on this side of the shopping plaza so I had a look around. I poked my head into this salon that I didn't even know was there yesterday to see if they could do a walk-in. It was the end of the day and everyone looked to be wrapping it up for the night. But one stylist said she could take me, so I gave her a shot.
Her name was Wendy, she was very friendly and had a great sense of humor. I think we both had a good time while she was doing her thing. I could tell she was very knowledgeable and knew what she was doing by techniques that I hadn't seen in years, such as using a straight razor on areas of my hair, etc. Before I knew it I was thinking to myself that this is gonna be a great cut, and it was. Most definitely one of the best cuts I have received in a long time. She explained why she did this & that to control my type of hair and gave me really good tips to take with me. I will be back for more of the same in the future.
This is the first review I've wrote on Yelp, it's just something that I'm not into. But during our conversation I was telling her that although our businesses are totally different, they are similar as far as clients and word of mouth are considered. So when I was telling her what a great job she did and that I didn't want to forget to grab her card so that I could return one day, she politely mentioned that if I really liked my hair that she would appreciate a review. And now that I am almost done, I'm glad I took five minutes to say thanks and I hope it helps her with her business. It's not easy to be out there working for yourself, I know how hard it can be. Sometimes a little support goes a long way. And if your looking to try someone new, give her a shot, you won't be sorry.
Wendy, thank you for a great job, I'm really happy with it :)
