Live out your Steel Magnolias fantasies here, y'all! And Jessica will be your Dolly Parton (true story, as I was leaving the salon yesterday, Dolly came on the sound system so I couldn't help but think about this). For my first appointment, actually even before that, I had a consultation first where she assessed my hair and we discussed what I wanted and what could be done to it. I wanted a balayage situation with purple, but my hair is almost black so it would need to be lightened... gradually because my hair is damaged/thin so she wanted to be careful. My return appointment was an entire day affair thanks to the color lifting. The purple was amazing, however once I got home, I realized it didn't take in the back and there were some orange-y spots so I called the salon. Jessica spoke to me and insisted that I come back so that she could fix it. And I was there for another two hours at no charge. Ultimately there was a small bit of hair that did not take the dye and sometimes that's going to be the case. I still loved the results and literally got compliments wherever I went. I didn't even need touching up but I went back yesterday after four months and I don't know what she did differently but this color is a gorgeous, rich dark brown with slight purple highlights. And I am in love with my haircut, too (slight shaping and trim goes such a long way). Thanks to Jessica for being such an approachable, skilled stylist (check out her Youtube channel) and Sarah and the rest of the reception staff for being so nice. I'm so happy to have the Steel Magnolias salon of my dreams here in New Orleans!

UPDATED REVIEW: unprofessional, inappropriate, disappointing…read more To give an update after my terrible haircut and the follow up, the salon owner, Amanda, reached out to me through both the Vagaro and Yelp reviews I left. Once again, I was so hopeful that things would be fixed after Taylor completely botched my bangs, but it turned out to be one of the worst experiences I've ever had (both with the haircut and the follow up). I'm so so disappointed that this was my experience with a supposedly great salon, but after the way Taylor, the stylist, butchered my bangs and how Amanda, the salon owner, not only talked to me but also how she handled the whole situation has been incredibly appalling and upsetting. For a quick timeline: I got a horrible haircut (see photos) that left me crying all weekend to the point I had to purchase fake clip in bangs, the salon owner left a comment on my original Yelp review that I had to report and get removed (the comment from her you see now is the 2nd one she posted), I no longer felt safe nor comfortable going back to the salon, the salon owner refused to refund me, she then blocked me on from messaging their social media business account and my phone number from calling, we never settled the matter, and Taylor the stylist also blocked me. Unfortunately that's where this story ends: with no refund, no answers, and no bangs. Below is my original review with no edits or changes. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I was so incredibly hopeful going into this appointment, but when I saw my actual haircut I just about burst into tears (of unhappiness and disappointment). The initial appointment request and follow up communication/service was exquisite, hence my high hopes. They asked for reference photos, appointment goals, and general questions about my hair. After I put in the request one of their employees followed up with times/dates I would prefer, which was a nice touch. Now going into the actual appointment, they were all very kind and sweet, and the salon itself seemed clean. I asked my stylist, Taylor, her thoughts on what would suit my hair after telling her my initial ideas/goals (cutting off dead ends, trimming my bangs a bit, and adding longer face framing pieces). She assured me fringe bangs would look great and started with a rough cut while my hair was dry. Atter that, she shampooed my hair and cut the rest while my hair was wet. Up until the end, it seemed as if she knew what she was doing, but when I actually got a close look at my bangs, it was quite apparent she has zero bang cutting experience. Photos attached of my reference pictures vs what I actually received, and how my hair used to look before this unfortunate botch haircut.

I love this fact, especially for my child who is autistic. My daughter loved the hair massage as her hair was prepped for cutting. The hairdresser was calm, friendly and really listened to what we wanted. She was great at matching the pictures that we brought for examples. We will be back and I think I will also try them for my own curly hair.

Jessica was my wedding hairstylist, and I was over the moon with her. There are a few things that…read moremake Jessica stand out from other bridal hairstylists. First, she is an excellent communicator. Whether through her helpful tips social media posts, or the forms that she sends over via email about your services, or just the advice she gives, I knew what to bring, how to wash and style my hair beforehand, and I had a contract immediately. These details lend to tremendous peace of mind to a bride during a time of life when it seems there are a thousand loose ends to figure out and tie up with vendors. Second, Jessica has talent and knows exactly what she's doing. I had 2 trials with another company prior to finding Jessica, and both of those ended in tears. When I had my trial with Jessica, I wanted to cry more from happiness than anything else! She is an absolute pro, and you can see that she is a wedding hairstylist from the photos. Finally, she is super on time and fast. The day of my wedding she arrived a little early. I was the one who messed up the time by telling my mom the wrong time! It didn't even frazzle Jessica at all. And she STILL finished everyone early. My hair held up ALL day and NIGHT. If you are on the fence about your hairstylist, look no further. Jessica is the person you need to help make your wedding day what it should be - the best day of your life!!
