Over rated!!! I was on time for my appointment but waited almost 20 minutes before they got started. It was hard enough getting there with traffic even though I left 1+ hour early. I was worried that I'd be charged 1/2 of the service if I was late. So my color appointment was ok. After the shampoo and rinse, I was told I could blow dry my own hair and style it. When I was done I sat back down. My colorist went to work on another customer while I did my own blow dry. Never saw her again. The least your salon can do is finis... read more

Terrible experience. Weird vibe at this shop starting with the colorist and blowout completely fried my hair. Either inexperience or on purpose using extremely high heat blow drying hair where steam was coming off with every pass. Even after wash and conditioner, my hair now feels like rope and natural shine had been stripped. Tons of broken fly aways. Completely egregious. Hair unraveled by the time I got to the parking lot and whatever product was put in it, left the hair feeling heavy and tacky. Can't imagine thi... read more

Everything, the worst hair appointment experience ever from bad attitude to poor morale, to unprofessionalism, to lack of knowledge/poor training, to lack of consistency! Always unprepared, never consulted the notes in my profile and resented being given information regarding individualized needs to ensure good outcome and instead argumentative and arrogant, never appreciative! As a result my roots were often under processed or processed incorrectly requiring re-do! In spite of repeated issues with coverage not once did... read more

This was ridiculously overpriced. The website says $115 for color and blow dry. Great. That markup makes sense for $25 of color. Instead I was charged $180, which included an extra $50 for a blowout. That charge was never mentioned and frankly it was not a good blowout - they don't have the right tools to do a proper job. The ladies were nice but I'm so annoyed. I could've gone to a local salon in my area that's actually nice for less money and gotten proper dye with a great blowout. Why do people even go here?!

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE HERE! if you're looking to get your hair colored and truly taken care of.... visit anywhere else. I came in to get a light brown red on my dark brown hair. I had asked my hair colorist if she felt confident that i would get the color like the picture i showed her and she said yes, i even kept asking because i wanted to make sure this color bar (not full service salon) could give me what i was looking for. The color stylist was so confident that she could get me the color, just for me to spend 3 hours her... read more

I wet to get my hair dyed a light color and repeatedly asked if they could do it, and then when the I saw the results I was very disappointed. The person who helped was Julia and all she said was that she is sorry and that I should have gone to a full service shop instead, after the fact she didn't dye my hair the wrong color. Julia also told me they would take 40% off, because of the mistake, but they said it was my fault that I didn't go to a full service shop. would not recommend. I would give a lower rating if I could.

I just came back from the salon super dissatisfied - I spent 3 hours ( appt was for 2) - $300 - ended up with 3 different colors in my hair that are disconnected from each other The roots, my previous highlights and the new highlights have nothing to do with each other The colorist agreed and said they need to apply a toner - but this was said after 3:15 hours and after the stylist finished her work- - I had no time to stay to fix what was done

Asked for a darker blonde instead of my usual color. They put it on the roots only. Looks like I need to get my hair done now! Had an appt to get it fixed but was told there's nothing they can do. I asked for my money back (100% satisfaction guarantee?!) and was told I got what I originally booked which was roots only. I will never go back to this location.

I come here because it's an easy way to get my roots dyed but the customer service is terrible. Members of the staff have an attitude and are rude for no good reason. When I arrived no one asked if I was there for an appointment or even acknowledged that a customer walked in for several minutes. My appointment was at 1030 and I was rudely directed to go "sit in that chair" around 1038 after standing in the front area for an awkward 8 minutes. From where I was I couldn't see the chairs so I asked which one and the woman who w... read more
