I had a 10am updo appointment scheduled for Friday, January 2nd for a wedding I was attending while…read morevisiting from out of town. I received an automated confirmation text two days prior, so I had no reason to believe there was an issue. When I arrived for my appointment, I found the salon permanently closed and the door locked. After some digging, I saw a Facebook post stating the business had closed, but relying solely on a Facebook post is not sufficient when the booking system is still active and sending confirmation texts. As an out-of-town client, there was no way for me to know my appointment was no longer valid. No call, no text, no cancellation notice. This was not a casual appointment -- it was for a wedding -- and the lack of communication forced me to scramble at the last minute. If a business is closing, booked clients should be proactively notified and all booking systems disabled. This situation could have been avoided with basic communication. Thankfully, I was able to find another salon last minute -- Primp and Blow Chandler -- who completely saved the day. Five stars to them for stepping in on short notice and doing an amazing job.

I will not be returning. My original appointment was for Thursday, 7/2 at noon. I had already had a…read moreconsultation for both cut and color and was told that the color would be $120 minimum and would go up from there. At 10:50 AM, I got a text indicating that my noon appointment had to be canceled due to illness. I was told somebody would call me back to reschedule. At 3 PM I messaged the shop indicating I have not been called yet and I was told I would get a call soon. By 4 PM, I did get a call and I rescheduled the next day for 3:15 PM.. unfortunately, the next day I got a call and canceled that appointment as well. That moved us into the next week and the first opening they had was the following Thursday, 7/9 at 6:15 PM. I asked the scheduler if there might be consideration of some compensation for two cancellations on their part one of which was an hour and 10 minutes before my hair was to be done.. she said she would talk to the owner and get back with me. You guessed it nobody called me. I didn't show up for my appointment on time and for the most part the experience was good. I was told I probably would not like my hair at first because it's a process of transitioning to gray. When I went to ring out, I was charged $145, I asked what the extra $25 was for and was told that some special toner had to be used. Since I had had a consultation already, and the plan for my appointment have been determined, I assumed the extra cost would have been relayed to me if more product was necessary. The next day, I did reach out to Adam to voice my opinion that I was disappointed no one had called me back, that I had hoped for some type of compensation for their 2 cancellations, and I felt like the total cost of my service should have been relayed at the consultation. His first response was to accuse me that I had canceled previously, which was absolutely not true. Once I pointed that out to him, he did apologize, but then said our price is our price and he cannot control people getting sick.. this was an unacceptable way to handle business and I will not spend any more of my money there.

Although a senior citizen guy, I wanted to color my hair to give it a uniform natural appearance despite thinning and greying hair, too. You get one shot with a TEDx talk, so go for it! Immediately I was so glad I came to this Salon. Ramon, the owner with decades of experience, was both gracious and engaging, and made me feel at home with his fun sense of humor. Ramon listened intently to what I had done in the past and what I needed. We discussed color shades and shaping. He explained what we would do, and I knew I was in good hands. Ramon's coloring and styling were picture perfect -- exactly the look I hoped for! When I got home, my wife, who has a ton of experience with hair styling and color for herself, could hardly stop complimenting how great I looked. At one point later in the evening, she said, "I just can't count all the things he did right!" I'll be back again and again!
