The Hair Shoppe saved me!!!…read more Getting extensions (not from the Hair Shoppe) for the first time just days before a vacation was probably not the best idea. Although I loved my longer, fuller locks, I realized in hindsight that I didn't allow myself time to get used to them before heading out of town for a week of family fun in Seaside. Instead of relaxing on my vacation, I was frustrated with my new extensions which were too long and heavy for my fine, thin hair. Not only were they pulling on my scalp but it was taking way too much time for this mom to style her hair in the morning! But I was 10 hours from home and *on vacation.* What to do? Desperate, I took matters into my own hands. Literally. I pulled out my scissors - knowing that what I was about to do would probably cause my hair stylist back home to disown me (!) - and attempted to create a few layers as well as trim a little bit length off the ends. I had no idea what I was doing. When the deed was done I was certain my hack job was glaringly obvious. And my extensions were still too heavy. Since my family had planned on taking our xmas picture on the beach during our stay *and* I was leaving for a separate girls' trip immediately following the vacation, I knew I wouldn't have time to see my stylist back home. But I needed my hair fixed. STAT. I checked the yelp reviews of the hair salons in Seaside where I was staying, but they were a mixed bag and none really stood out. Although The Hair Shoppe, located next door in Gearhart, had just a few reviews, they were glowing and seemed geniune. I also appreciated the fact that there were photos. I called on a Sunday afternoon (aware they were closed that day) and left a voicemail. Stephanie returned my call the very next Monday morning. I explained my dilemma to her, and also inquired about getting a few foil highlights to brighten my face (my extensions were dark and added to the "heaviness"). Stephanie was totally accommodating and scheduled me in for that very week. Whew! After arriving at the small, but clean and chic salon, I was immediately put at ease by Stephanie's friendly and professional demeanor. We reviewed my hair goals and she went to work. I could tell Stephanie had years of experience by the way she handled my hair and the questions she asked. Before long she had brightened me up with some caramel highlights that framed my face (which was tricky as my hair is brown-black with some purple extensions mixed in at the bottom). She then cleaned up my homemade haircut, added long layers, and evened out the back. I was thrilled (and relieved) with the results!!!! The extensions were lighter and easier for me to manage, the highlights were on target, and I was sporting a more balanced and natural looking cut to boot. I'm still exhaling... Bottom line: whether you are on vacation or are a local, you NEED to go to The Hair Shoppe. Scary as it was to book a hair appointment far from home while on vacation, I am sooooo happy I took the risk and hit the jackpot with Stephanie! :)
