It was my first trip to A Wild Hair (based off of my friend who highly recommended this place, as everyone in her family loves it as well). I have naturally dark dark brunette hair. I wanted to try out the balayage look but was skeptical as every other hair salon I've been too cannot get the color correct. I always end up with "orange" brassy hair. I always get the explanation that my hair is too dark or too brassy, I'll never get the "blonder" or light look I am aiming for, especially on the first try. Well, my appointment was with Erica that day and she set me up with an 11am appointment. She told me she would need some time to get everything done (color, cut, style, etc). I spent 5 hours in her chair that day (poor girl) and the whole time I never felt as if she was rushed, frustrated, distracted, or anything that I've negatively encountered far too often at other locations I've tried. She was so friendly and kind the whole time with me! I felt very comfortable and relaxed with her and the whole time was a great experience in itself. When she was done and turned me around to see the final look, I wanted to cry from sheer excitement! I have never loved my look/hair like I did that day! I was blown away!!! My color was far better than I could have ever imagined. She NAILED THE LOOK on the very first try! Not only was she an awesome person to spend time in the chair with but her skills are out of this world. I am so happy to say this will be the only place I keep coming back to and trust with my hair! The overall atmosphere of the salon is so fun and the staff is great. I 100% recommend Erica to everyone. Can't wait to see what we keep doing with my hair in the next few months. read more
