if you have long hair and care about keeping it - or want any semblance of a decent haircut - STAY VERY FAR AWAY FROM HERE
i would give it zero stars or sadly -100 stars if able
i had the worst salon experience of my life here recently
i have had long hair my entire life (25+ years) and stressed OVER AND OVER how important keeping my hair long to me was - i stated OVER AND OVER that I HATE SHORT HAIR - and that i did not want a short haircut
the stylist - STEPHEN - even pulled out a picture of himself with long hair and told me he "understood how important hair was" and that he "had long hair for over 30 years"
apparently, it was a lie because i went in with 18" hair and left with a 1/2" short hackjob in the back
this is no exaggeration, and my hair looks as if it was chopped with a hedgeclipper. i could have done a better job myself, or someone with no haircutting experience could have done a better job
my hair did have breakage, but that started at 10"-12" - therefore we agreed that this was THE SHORTEST that it would be at the shortest point of the haircut. i brought in multiple pictures of a style i thought may work with the breakage, which was shorter in back than in front. so it was supposed to be 10-12" long at the back, graduating to the front, like an a-line bob, but on a MUCH LONGER level
this guy did not even cut my hair on any type of line or style that i requested, or anything like any picture i showed him, didn't section it off properly, just seemed to grab random pieces of my hair and hack it. it all happened so fast, and he turned me around to look, and to my horror i saw my bare neck and i was in shock
as any stylist knows, even if you were cutting an a-line bob, which i DID NOT ask for - you leave the top layer long and it meets the underneath layer - which is the shortest. my hair is short everywhere - it is disgusting, no style, and completely uneven. even the manager told me i should not let anyone else touch my hair or cut it any shorter since it is already so short and uneven - just let it grow
i do not understand or believe that a stylist with "30 yrs of experience" would ever do this to a client, nor do i believe it is acceptable from a salon of this supposed quality
i have to call BS. nobody has "30 years experience" and has a client that states repeatedly that they "HATE SHORT HAIR" "DO NOT WANT SHORT HAIR" and "WANT THEIR HAIR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE" and still hacks your hair
he stated that "you're too sexy & beautiful to walk around with your hair looking like you have it now - it looks like you don't know what you are doing"
now it is clear that HE is the one who DOESN'T know what he is doing
this salon claims that they offer "toni & guy cutting techniques" there is no way in HELL this is true - the quality of the "haircut" i received was below that of a hair cuttery
the salon is EMPTY - both when i went for my consultation and for my appointment, I was the only patron in the salon - that should have been my first cluen -do not make the same mistake that i did and trust someone you do not know
i am now the very upset owner of an extremely short haircut that i vehemently stated I DID NOT WANT
i have cried every day for 6 weeks. nothing will cure this but time, and I will probably never again trust someone to cut my hair after this horrific experience
i am now a slave to extensions for years which is exactly what i stated i did not want to be, just wanted the damaged bottom of my hair cut off and continue to grow it out longer. extensions are the only way to hide (partially hide) the hell that is underneath. the hair is so short you can see the hack job both underneath - which is 1/2' long, and on top of the extensions which is about 3" long. there is no way to hide that and i am the one that now looks like an idiot with a wig on thanks to this jerk
i did go back to the salon the next morning - and turned around to show the manager this hackjob - it only took him 2.5 seconds to promptly refund my $ - so at least i got refunded for what will take me at least 5 years to recover from
did i mention this place charges $65 PER HAIRCUT ??!!! HIGHWAY ROBBERY !
VIDAL SASSOON ONLY CHARGES $75 !
also - i gave a $20 tip because i am a nice person, not because he deserved it!
obv, i was TOO nice!
this price doesn't even include a decent shampoo. more like your grandpa running water through your hair and barely washing it. horrible. for this price you should receive an excellent shampoo and scalp massage. i received nothing.
to make matters worse, when i was standing at the desk talking to the manager, stephen had the AUDACITY to come over and ask what the problem was, then tried to justify his hackjob by saying that my hair was broken to that point! 1/2" ! COMPLETE LIE & BS! i had already showed the owner the picture that was taken of my hair wet in the salon before he started cutting it.
