They offer the full range of services including hair, facials, manicures, pedicures, massages and waxing. And best of all, not an ounce of pretentiousness. I have absolutely adored a stylist named Matthew at Wave for 9 years. Conversation is always entertaining. If I didn't live far, far away, I would never go to anyone else for hair and brows. He also does makeup and special occasions (he refuses to do an up-do). He has such loyal customers; he has even done a few clients for their own funerals. He doesn't believe in hair extensions, but he does do eyelash extensions (I have not partaken). His coloring is great. I have recommended several friends and they are always pleased. I went to an 80's Prom party and he took an entire Saturday to do hair and makeup for eight women. The results were like, totally awesome. His hair cuts are about $40 (CHEAP!) and he doesn't push product.

Street parking in the area should be easy for those who drive. The salon is clean, tidy, and "modern" without being too stuffy, which I liked. Coffee & tea while you wait. I got an appointment with Kaelyn, and although I'm always a little wary of finding a new stylist, she quickly put me at ease. She was very sweet, funny, and attentive. After some discussion around my options, she ended up giving me the most adorable pixie cut I've ever had! She spent a ton of extra time making sure everything was absolutely how I wanted it, and her pricing was affordable as well. I hit the jackpot on my first try in Uptown and I couldn't be happier. Go see Kaelyn, you won't be disappointed!

First of all, upon my arrival at the doorway, he was sweeping and had a phone between his ear and shoulder. Without looking at me to acknowledge I was there, he held up his pointer finger at me to tell me to wait/hold on. Not my idea of a warm welcome, but I am a believer in giving people the benefit of a doubt. I booked an appointment through his website and in order to do so you have to enter a credit card. I went to my appointment and we decided it would take more than the time we had scheduled to do what I really wanted and we'd have to reschedule. I said I would reschedule later when I could be in front of a computer to move things around on my busy schedule. That night I received a $100 no-show fee. I called him and he told me that I should've rebooked with him when I was in there then he wouldn't have had to charge me a no-show fee. I showed up for my appointment so a no-show should not have been applicable, and if he was planning on charging me that, he should have told me when I was in there so we could've rescheduled. Instead, he chose to be passive aggressive and charge me after I left. I've disputed the charge with my credit card company.

This was one of the strangest hair appointments I've ever had in my life. I bought a Groupon for a…read morefull highlight, and I made the appointment with no issues. The salon is a small space in a mega building full of other stylists. I've never been to a place like that before, so I looked up Rodney's space on the directory and went to the his salon area. He was on the phone when I got there and gave me the "I'll be with you in a minute finger" as he was on the phone. No biggie, I'll just wait. A minute later, he opened the door and snippily asked me to go wait in the waiting area as he was on a VERY important phone call. I almost left after that because I had a bad feeling, but whatever, I already paid, so I decided to stick it out. After I finally got seated and told him what I wanted (and was told that toning would be extra, which wasn't stated in the Groupon nor have I ever paid extra for that). He then proceeded to have me prep all of the foils that were going to be used. WTF? I get that it speeds the process up, but really? The whole time he was foiling, I felt like he was trying to rush through the whole thing...like I was being an inconvenience for being there. It wasn't even close to closing time, so I don't understand the rush. Also of note, he had to stop to take another phone call (from the same person) to figure out billing issues. Not cool. I had to sit through him asking why my hair was SO long, him basically telling me that I was too old to be using cheap shampoo (but offered up no products as suggestions--also, I'm 34, so it's not like I'm ancient), and him JUST DYING to cut off my bad hair, but having no time to do it. Wow. The color turned out okay, but the toner faded after 2 weeks (and I was NOT using cheap shampoo). 1.5 stars, and that's being generous.

I don't get my hair cut often and by the time I called for another haircut, she was gone and I didn't know her anymore. But, I was desperate, so I asked for someone on the day that worked best for me. They gave me to Edward. Edward is great! If you always wanted an awesome gay hairdresser, he is probably the one for you. He does talk a lot and will interrupt you without pretext, but in a nice way. I've never paid more then $40, including tip. The salon itself is really nice and swank. Everyone's nice and they offer you drinks while you wait. If you don't usually come into downtown, consider taking the train to the Warehouse District stop, walk less then half a block to the salon, and when you're done, go over to block E, grab a drink and catch a flick with your new do!
