Maven Hair Co Aledo, TX-Zero Stars-do NOT recommend. (Be sure to see all the pictures I've…read moreuploaded) I went to Maven Hair Co. Aledo, TX location on 7/29/2026 for a consultation with Madison. At that time, I explained thoroughly what my expectations were that I wanted Dark Ash highlights, so I didn't feel so white/Gray or balding to add dimension.I had not gotten my hair colored in 6 years so I wanted to ensure the person I selected would be the best. I explained I wanted to keep my original natural platinum blonde (or grey (salt) and that I just wanted dimension. That was going to cost 325. She somehow talked me into blonding for my ends and for the underside of the back of my head since it was dark and still had color. I figured this was supposed to be a luxury salon and they would be able to do an outstanding job and get me the color I wanted to I agreed. That brought the price to 560 (color only no haircut), but unfortunately, I trusted her and the salon and scheduled my appointment for 08/26/2026. Upon arrival I got a bit nervous as Madison asked me what we were doing today.I said, "we had the consult that I paid you 35 for and I think our plan is set". She said, "That was a week ago, and I have had many other clients since then", so I had to explain it all over. This really rubbed me wrong as I paid for the consult, that doesn't come off this appointment and she didn't take notes? We went through the coloring, it seemed ok, but I wasn't convinced when I left but wanted to give it a day maybe once I wash and style it the following day it would be perfect. Below is what it looked like on Day 2. I was super concerned about the underside and throughout the face where the blonding took place.I called the Salon and let them know, however, I was leaving for Europe in two days for eleven days. They agreed for me to come back so they could fix it on Day 3, the day before my trip. This time I landed with Brook, who was a much more seasoned Stylist and seemed very friendly & knowledgeable - I wish I went with her the first time as she agreed it was Brassy and also indicated that she probably would not have put blonde in my hair. But she didn't want to correct the blonde, she only wanted to put in more lowlights to allow for the white (my original hair color) to pop out more and that I should use purple shampoo on those blonde pieces to whiten it up and eventually just cut off the blonding Madison did. After Brook finished, it looked darker, I wasn't convinced but I trusted and hoped by the next day it would be ok. It wasn't. It was brassier. I tried on my trip using purple shampoo, that didn't work, nothing did. Here are the pictures during my trip - I wanted to cry every day. My hair just looked worse every day, it was so many different colors and never the color it should have been. It looked like trash - and it wasn't starting to become very clear that it was the blonding they did that was never corrected and the lowlights just faded. 9 days after Brook corrected only the lowlights, she refused to touch the blonding, I messaged the company from Europe letting them know the situation and that I would be flying home in two days and would like to get a call from the owner and go in to see her so she could see my hair and address the situation. She finally texted me the following on the Friday I was flying home. The owner's response was extremely disturbing. For a customer service-related business I have never had an owner hide behind texts, not take the initiative to correct a problem that is clearly wrong and try to make it seem it was my fault and threaten me. I'm 100% certain if she went through this same experience, she would expect a refund or it to be corrected. Remember, they never corrected the blonding so only half tried to fix. After 1 day, I have never in my lifetime had my hair immediately turn brassy - it generally would take at least a few months before you would have to work on it so I am warning those that read this to consider other salons, I've read past reviews and the owner has slammed the door in the faces of those with similar concerns or bad service. My remedy, after speaking to friends, family, coworkers as well as the community and neighborhoods where I reside here in Aledo, I found another salon to do a consultation free of charge, his thoughts were these - generally speaking. Hair shouldn't turn brassy one day after getting it colored, he could tell that it was the blonding that caused most of the yellow brassiness and that when this happens it is generally due to the fact that the hair wasn't lifted correctly and no purple shampoo will fix that. We are waiting for my hair to recover and then my only "sure" fix will be to redo those brassy pieces to lift them - however either way it's not a fix at home case so I will need to dish out money due to @MavenHairCo. Aledo, TX refusal to do the right thing.

It has a good central design, with a nice grass buffer between the centerpiece courthouse and the parking area (there is more parking, and public restrooms, behind the Opera House). A statue of General Granbury proudly stands in one corner. There are numerous shops and restaurants to explore, as well other interests a short walk away (bed and breakfasts, an art gallery, a library and the old jail). The public beach is also walkable from the square, making for a nice walk to see the water or perhaps to look at some of the bed and breakfasts (there are B&B options on the square, and also walking distance from the square). The plaza is home to many event throughout the year. During these times the parking lot is used for vendors and entertainment, and makes for a lovely way to spend the day. See the Granbury website for the event calendar (http://granburysquare.com/calendar-of-events/). Oh, and the recently renovated Hood County Courthouse is now open four tours.

The square is full of shops and restaurants and even a B&B. And there is a beautiful courthouse at its center. If you're in the area, be sure to check out this unique a charming little spot where the buildings all look as if they've been kept just how they were originally constructed in the late 1800s.

Basically all the things that would constitute a normal mall. The mall remained this way for a while during the 1990's, and some stores closed along the way, or changed names. Natural evolution, right? Then the stores started closing, and nothing replaced them. Sure, Bealls, Cato, GNC, Regis, and Corn Dog 7 stayed the course, but pretty soon they were the forefront of the whole College Park Mall experience. A few stores came in and out just as quickly as they were announced, but when the old Wal-Mart left the mall to move across the street into a super mega hyper combo center, this is when the mall truly died. I just don't think anyone's had the heart to tell the poor thing. Cato and GNC fled to a new shopping center across from the new Wal-Mart. The 2000's have been nothing but unkind to College Park Mall. Bealls still remains there, as do a few clothing shops. Over half the mall has been walled up where the old jewelry stores used to be, meaning half of the shopping center is completely inaccessible to people. Too bad for the senior mall walkers that once frequented the place and did their paces every morning, right? Corn Dog 7 looks like it could/would almost be open, but it turns out that whoever owned that place, must have done a fast abandonment. You can still hang out at Corn Dog 7, just don't expect any service there. Or food. Ever. The mall is a sad, sad place these days. Many locals bemoan the high rental costs it takes to run a store there as to the reason why nothing new comes in anymore, from high-profile store to even a local business. So if the landlords wanted their own personal empty mall to ride bikes in or roll a ball from one end to the other uninterrupted, good job! They achieved their goal. It's depressing even walking into the tiny section that's still left open. The even more bitter pill comes from knowing that it actually used to be a top-notch shopping experience for Corsicana.
