It's been almost 2 years (September 2023) since my first and only appointment at blackbird. It was…read moreso terrible that TO THIS DAY I think about it whenever I'm drying my hair. I decided that it's finally time to make a review of my experience. My appointment was with Eunice. I had done a ton of research about where to trust my hair now that a former stylist of mine stopped cutting hair for a living. She recommended this salon. After reading all the stylists instagrams I decided on Eunice. I arrived on time and was seated in her chair. She had the worst attitude and demeanor as soon as I sat down. She asked me about my hair routine and I told her I used Keratase hair oil as a finishing product and she scoffed at me and said "you put hair oil on dry hair?" like I was some sort of idiot. "Um, yes, this is common," I thought. But I was so shocked I just smiled. Then we were talking about what kind of cut I wanted and I asked her if she had any suggestions and she literally said "no, that is up to you." This woman was literally charging 125 for haircuts and would not give me any suggestions. I totally regretted making this appointment at that point but I thought it was too late, and didn't want to be rude (I think I was the only one). I ended up getting a cut that was fine, and when she blowdried it she made no effort to style it. Simply dried, no real volume, nothing. The whole experience was 45 minutes start to finish. It was a haircut I probably could have gotten for half the price elsewhere without the horrible attitude. When I went to checkout, it is the only hair stylist EVER that I did not tip. 125 for the cut was already too much (and I've paid more for haircuts). I think she charges more now. Perhaps the other stylists here are better but I have no interest in going back to a salon where this type of behavior is ok (based on my reading of reviews, I am not an isolated case).

Overall, this place is fine for a hair cut. I'm going to assume i came on an off day…read more Pros: - The haircut itself was nice. I thought the stylist did a good job. -Plenty of space to wait for your appointment. They seem to provide a lot of different services. - My stylist was nice during my haircut. The check-in and check-out process was another case. Cons: - i called ahead about making an appointment and was confirmed. After waiting for my appointment to start for 20 minutes, i get a cancellation notification on my phone. I go to the front desk and the person says they can't fit me in. Things happen so i offer to leave and come back another time. Then they make it work, which i appreciated, but everyone seemed frustrated about fitting me in to the point i keep asking "are you sure?". It was very uncomfortable. - While checking out, i get charged double for my haircut. The person who charged me just leaves, frustrated, and hands the receipt to someone else to fix. That person fixed it ultimately, but i never saw my original stylist again. The second person handed me a void receipt and a new one receipt and then disappeared too. -The impression i got was that i was forgotten about and then when they remembered, i was one big inconvenience for everyone despite having an appointment on the calendar. I don't think i'll be returning.

Thankfully, Elena pulled through. She walked me through what she was doing, was transparent about price, and only cut what was necessary.

{Note: Remember to also check the "Non Recommended Yelp Reviews" below all of these reviews as they…read morealso include more feedback on services} Friday was my first hair appointment with Madeline and today is Monday. I usually try to give my hair jobs a few days before writing reviews to see if its not just the professional styling :-) HAIR CUT: This was mostly a touch-up to make sure my hair looked healthy. She did make some adjustments in thickness in one area which I 100% agreed on. The most remarkable aspect of this was that Madeline had me stand for some of the cutting to really make sure she was cutting it to my face, posture and movement. The cut looks incredibly natural and effortless. BALAYAGE HIGHLIGHTS: My first time with Balayage and it looks stunning. I have been coloring my hair since I was 13 and this was the longest I had my natural hair grown out (about four months worth) since I was 13. The balayage job she did and placement of the highlights makes my hair look incredibly "California Surfer Girl" and low maintenance. I know that I will not need to rush back to the salon after 5 weeks because of how balayage works and that each week as it grows out more it will continue to look stunning. SALON ATMOSPHERE: Madeline's salon is a one-person salon with its own waiting room downstairs, the salon chair and wash room up half a level, and another lounge room and bathroom up another half level. It was incredibly relaxing to be the only customer and pretty much own the place while you are there. She explained to me how people come and bring their kids and how I could even bring my dog if I wanted to. SCHEDULING: Scheduling is super EASY. It is by appointment only but because she is a one-person salon she can completely accommodate people by either driving to them on site, having people show up at 7:30am or doing later night appointments. For me I was pretty standard and she had availability within the next three days which is great for someone like me who does things more last-minute. SERVICE: Madeline did everything to make sure my hair fit my lifestyle (which she knows because she bumps into me all the time straight out of bed as I walk my dog by her salon). I had mentioned I was undecided about two color options and also whether I wanted to cut my hair or not. She sent me TEXT MESSAGES with pictures of things I might want to consider prior to the appointment. During the appointment, I had several beverage options and of course plenty of magazines to look at. She did something else that I had never seen before as well which was make me stand up and actually cut some of my hair while standing. I found this incredibly reassuring ... and it paid off! OVERALL IMPRESSION OF CUT AND COLOR: I love it and even more.... I still love it with bed-head when I walk my dog in the morning!! The color makes me feel like a celebrity and the cut just looks so natural and effortless on me that it I *still* feel like a celebrity rolling out of bed! After washing it the first couple times, I can definitely say she gave me the perfect cut to compliment my "low-maintenance" needs - it just falls into place perfectly every time. I will definitely be going back to Madeline Wade and can't believe I didn't see her earlier!!!
