I thought about just letting this review go after the backlash of complete ridiculousness, but no…read more I will not be bullied out of leaving an HONEST review. I left an HONEST review here the Weds before Thanksgiving. It was a poor review, but honest. 7 days later, the salon owners were made aware of said review, and literally... all hell broke loose. I was contacted by every employee at Sage. As was my significant other who has no stake in this, whatsoever. Horrible things have been said about me in this review app as well as fb, and publicly. I have been contacted by Sage "clients" with threats and horrible things said to me, and one of the owners husbands has made fun of my hair and what Rachel At Sage did to my hair. And, my Yelp account was reported as a fake and I had to get in touch with Yelp to ensure that I am a real human with an honest review. After this, I thought- holy sh*t - all of this over one review, I was THE ONLY Yelp review on this salon the weds before thanksgiving, by the way. But- I won't be bullied by some seriously deranged people. And, I'm glad that this didn't happen to every customer at Sage. But, guess what - this did happened to me and I am providing information to people who use this, Bc it is true. I waited an obscene amount of time for my appointment, my hair was RUINED, I sat with dripping hair in a chair for 50 mins waiting for a cut until I had enough and left. I'd like to add that the receptionist at Sage was tasked with rinsing my overprocessed hair and as she didn't even rinse the shampoo. Rachel didn't even LOOK at the color, she knew i was unhappy and did not care at all. When I contacted the owner when I left- I was met with excuses and I was blamed for the bad end product. Saying that i changed my type of service, my hair is too thick, I'm not flexible, etc--- ALL FALSE. And this, is not right. I was not offered anything in the form of correction until one of the owners saw the review I left on that weds - since removed as my account was reported as fake. This is what happened, this is true. I was offered a correction after a WEEK- would anyone in their right mind go back? No. These girls are EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL and clearly asked people they know, clients or friends, to reach out to me, and that is disgusting. I will mention that Makila is the ONLY person with an ounce of professionalism at this establishment- but the rest... unbelievable. Over an honest review. I'm providing a picture, real pic, of what my hair looked like that Weds when i left. Beware!!!

Heartbroken Bride - A Cautionary Tale for Anyone with Textured Hair…read more On October 4, 2024, I had my hair done at The Lift Salon by Justin, a stylist I had previously trusted. As a South Asian woman with thick, coarse hair, I made it very clear that this appointment was for my wedding day. What should've been a joyful, exciting experience turned into a months-long nightmare -- one I'm still dealing with in June 2025. The salon is very much a white-centered space, and while that shouldn't matter, it clearly did. Just because I have thick hair does not mean it's okay to bleach it to the lightest color possible without any real conversation about the risks involved. As a stylist, it is your responsibility to inform your client of potential damage -- especially when working with textured or ethnic hair. Had I known my hair would end up gummy, stringy, and permanently compromised, I would've never agreed to this. I even voiced concern during the appointment when I noticed the gummy texture. Justin brushed it off and told me it would feel like that for "just two days." I trusted him -- big mistake. After the first wash, my hair was a sticky, breaking mess. It was completely ruined. Since then, I've spent months trying to repair it, and I'm still not even close. When I reached out to the owner, Cristol, hoping for accountability and understanding, I was met with nothing but ego, gaslighting, and attitude. Her exact words were: "But you loved your hair and walked out with a smile." I told her: "I didn't even realize how damaged it was at the time -- check your cameras, I was trying to bring it up to Justin during the service." Instead of listening, she cut me off and said, "I will not have you come back into the salon. I'll just refund you. You can go to my friend, Carve Beauty, to get your treatments done." I was in tears. I had just paid $600 for a service that destroyed my hair and left me completely heartbroken -- and she had the audacity to ban me? As if I'd ever want to go back. You couldn't even pay me to return. Update - End of June 2025 This photo shows the current condition of my hair -- still gummy, breaking, and fragile despite everything I've done to try and fix it. Funny enough, I didn't find Carve Beauty on my own. Cristol -- in the middle of kicking me out of her salon -- actually recommended I go there. The irony? Carve turned out to be everything The Lift is not. At Carve, Tina, one of the owners, was professional, kind, and truly empathetic. When I told her what had happened, she was genuinely appalled. I ended up doing around six intensive treatments at Carve and purchased their molecular repair treatment to continue care at home. And still, after all that, I'm left with long-term damage. If you want a salon that will actually listen, respect you, and treat your hair with real care and knowledge, I cannot recommend Carve Beauty enough. Go to Tina for anything major or corrective -- she's amazing. And for regular styling, ask for Abby -- she's just as talented and sweet. Skip the arrogance. Skip the gaslighting. Skip the damage. Go where your hair and your voice are respected -- go to Carve.
