Wow, so happy I gave this place a shot!
I've been pretty burned in the past by less than satisfactory haircuts and have become a *maybe* once a year haircut person because of it - bouncing from salon to salon in hopes of finally finding "the one". Well, I think I finally might have!
I initially was booked with a different stylist but received a text from Carrie the day before mentioning that unfortunately my original stylist had to take the day off to take care of her son and if I was ok with it, they'd move me to Keeley's books instead. Since I didn't have any sort of commitment to a stylist I said sure.
Keeley was fantastic! She greeted me the moment I walked in, offering me coffee/tea/water. When I sat in her chair, she was super receptive to the concerns I had. I mentioned wanting layers but being a low maintenance girl and feeling worried it may look choppy. She gave advice but also didn't push, as she recognized my hesitance. She told me to think over the layers she suggested and did an initial trim and asked how I was feeling. She checked in every step of the way to make sure I was comfortable, even when it came to curling my hair. I've gone to so many stylists that merely asked for my reference pics and started chopping, but Keeley was thorough, patient and attentive. It was the first time maybe ever that I truly felt listened to by a stylist.
This place is a little on the pricey side but based on my first experience, I think it's well worth the price! Keeley even set me up with an appointment for June and I do actually see myself keeping it and finally becoming someone who upkeeps their hair!
