I've been reluctant to post because I wanted to be in love with this salon...
For starters, the salon is gorgeous. Comfortable. They greet you right away. Once seated, I took a look at the brochure that disclosed prices. I was in for a perm. It said "$75+". I've been getting perks for the better part of 15 years and this is what I am accustomed to paying. Usually around $80. I've even paid $90 at high end salons in Atlanta.
The hairdresser was fantastic. Kind, funny, and chatty. I showed her a photo of the perm style I was looking for and she began.
I was there about 2 hours. That's the norm. When I checked out I asked for a recommendation on a good shampoo and left with one I love. (Try Loma, you won't regret it) however, when I was checked out the total was $175!!! One hundred dollars more than what's disclosed in the salon brochure. I have paper thin, chin length hair so I was shocked. I didn't question the total there because the hairdresser was so awesome but after speaking with other stylists and friends and neighbors, they encouraged me to review such a discrepancy in the price. Maybe the shampoo was $100? I still have sticker shock 2 weeks later. I've never paid even close to that price so I was appalled.
For this reason I did not recommend the salon to friends or neighbors and can't recommend on yelp. There's a host of salons in this area (excellent ones) that seem to be more upfront and honest in their pricing. read more
