I've been going to the Station Salon for six years. In that time I've had many different stylists…read more They've all been exceptional. But this last time I had an issue with my extensions and was honestly worried about the health of my hair. I contacted the salon. Dana, the salon owner, immediately stepped in and took care of me. Not only did she redo my extensions beautifully, but she also colored and trimmed my hair! She made sure I was happy with the results, and my hair looks and feels amazing. I would absolutely recommend the Station Salon, the owner, and her team. They handled an uncomfortable situation with professionalism, kindness, and integrity. They did the right thing to make sure I felt heard, cared for, and satisfied. What impressed me most was how she took so much out of her day, with no advanced notice, to make me leave happy and confident. She went above and beyond to make things right, and that level of professionalism and customer care is hard to come by. The entire experience turned so positive because of her kindness, skill, and integrity. I'm both grateful and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this salon to anyone looking for someone who stands behind their work and values their clients.

I have been box dying my hair on and off for the last 14+ years. So I was nervous that Lynn…read morewouldn't be able to get my hair color the way I wanted it. I wanted the ombré bayalage but was worried that the black was on too thick and for too long. Lynn wasn't sure either but we tested my hair and it was strong enough to withhold the chemicals, she didn't want to ruin my hair. I really appreciated that since most hair stylists would fry your hair and take your money and not care. Lynn told me I have thick and beautiful hair, so she didn't want to ruin it with chemicals if my hair wasn't strong enough to manage it. Hours later, my hair came out perfectly the caramel colors I wanted and the ombré was perfect. I'm thrilled with the results and I'll be back for Lynn to help me manage this hair.

This is my first ever review!…read more I recently moved to the area and found Parlour on Google. At 7 weeks postpartum, I wanted a hair refresh and my cut was amazing by Sabrina. A few months later, my baby started grabbing my long hair, so I tried cutting it myself--disaster! I came in again 3 months PP for a cut with Sabrina, but I wasn't happy with it. I had to rush home and couldn't explain what felt off, so I called the same day to schedule adjustments. Two days later, I came in thinking she was just going to cut my hair dry buSabrina gave me a full service (wash, cut, blow dry, style) and nailed the look I wanted. She even waived the cost for the redo! I was shocked and grateful--being 3 months postpartum, I didn't feel my best, and I left the salon loving my hair. Sabrina is the sweetest, most understanding stylist, and I felt completely comfortable giving honest feedback. 10/10 recommend!

I've been going to Steven for about a year now, and at this point I genuinely don't trust anyone…read moreelse with my hair. I swear I can walk in with the most random inspiration photo or say, "I want this exact shade of red," and somehow he and his team make it even better than I imagined. Every. Single. Time. I've never left disappointed, and that's saying a lot because I'm VERY picky about my reds. They always turn out rich, vibrant, dimensional, and they stay looking amazing. The entire salon has such a fun, welcoming vibe. His team is full of the sweetest, most talented women who are always so encouraging and excited about whatever color idea I bring in. Not once have I been talked out of something or made to feel silly for wanting to try a new look. Instead, they hype me up, make recommendations, and somehow bring my vision to life while keeping my hair healthy. One thing that has meant so much to me is that I'm active duty military, so my hair has to stay within regulations. He has always been incredibly knowledgeable about what will and won't work, and he makes sure my color is beautiful while still keeping me in regs. He has even offered to recolor my hair free of charge if it ever ended up outside military standards, which, for the record, has literally NEVER happened because he absolutely nails it every time. If you're thinking about booking, just do it. Whether you want subtle, bold, vibrant, or something completely unique, this is the place to go. The talent, the kindness, the professionalism, and the overall experience are honestly unmatched. I can't recommend him and his amazing team enough.

I booked an appointment at Sax Hair Salon specifically because he claims to specialize in grey…read moreblending. What I experienced at the hands of Steve and his staff was an absolute nightmare that resulted in severe chemical burns, leaving my hair completely fried and feeling like wire. Looking back, I deeply regret ignoring the initial red flags. He spent most of the appointment on his phone while he worked. Because I always try to see the good in people and give them the benefit of the doubt, I stayed in the chair. It completely backfired, and I am deeply disappointed. The lack of professionalism and basic competence from the entire team was shocking. After the first round of bleaching, his assistant rinsed my hair and brought me back to the station. Steve proceeded to aggressively brush my hair. As entire clumps of my hair were actively falling out, he looked at me and falsely claimed, "it's totally normal." He then stated he was going to bleach a remaining dark band of color, but instead, I watched him and his assistants blindly redo the entire strand. I trusted his judgment simply because he is supposed to be the "professional." The mistakes only escalated during the toner application, which was handled by his two assistants. They acted like silent, unengaging robots, completely ignoring me throughout the process. They entirely missed the bottom section of my neck, leaving terrible, uneven splotches throughout my hair. Furthermore, I explicitly instructed them not to put toner on my natural greys. They completely ignored my request, leaving an extremely noticeable, botched patch on the side of my head. When I pointed it out, they casually brushed it off and told me it would "eventually fade." The absolute breaking point was the blowout. Steve and two of his assistants began blow-drying my hair. As the assistants yanked aggressively on my severely compromised strands, smoke literally began rising from my head. Seeing the smoke, the botched toner, the splotches, and the sheer extent of the chemical destruction, I told them to STOP and burst into tears right there in the chair. This is not a professional crew. If Steve could not handle the technical challenge of working on my hair, it would have been perfectly acceptable for him to just say no. The entire experience felt so incredibly deliberate that it almost made me feel as if I had done something to personally offend him or his company. That is the only logical explanation I can think of for why a team of professionals would treat my hair with such complete disregard. He fully acknowledged the severity of the damage by refunding my deposit, waiving the service fee, and even offering to pay for hair extensions. While I recognize he knew he was in the wrong, a refund and extensions do not change the fact that my hair is destroyed. He asked for an opportunity to "fix it," but the trust is entirely gone; there will absolutely not be a second chance. This entire experience was easily one of the worst days of my life. I am an emotional wreck every single time I look in the mirror. My friends and family have looked at his Instagram page and are completely disgusted by what he did to me. Because of their incompetence, I have already been forced to chop my hair off and spend $450 out of pocket on specialized repair products just to salvage what is left. I would not recommend Sax or his salon to my worst enemy. Avoid this establishment at all costs.

I am so glad I found Olivia!…read more Olivia and her co-pilot Sandy are wonderful! I have been coming to this salon for a little over a year now. I have been consistently happy with the quality of service I always get from here from hair cuts, root touch ups, to high lights. :) I have very BIG curly thick hair which can be a lot! Olivia always takes extra time and detail to make sure she is not compromising the health/texture of my hair while still making me feel happy. :) Finding this consistently has been a difficult task. I also love the one on one vibe you get when coming here. All the attention is on you when you are in her chair! I look forward to my monthly time with these girls.

Beware of price gouge rip off by stylist Wendy Fata! The Garage salon has no website to see prices…read more When I called for a roots touch up appointment I was told Wendy had availability. Since she wasn't in at the time, so I asked Janea the owner what Wendy charges. She said she "didn't know." Why would she claim not to know? They work there together, so I'm not buying it! I went for the appointment figuring the cost would be the typical $60 to $80 rate. Wendy charged me an outrageous $190 FOR A SIMPLE ROOTS TOUCH UP & BLOW DRY! No haircut involved. As she told me the price she said, "no need to add a gratuity, it's included in the price. SHE JUST ADDED IN A TIP FOR HERSELF WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! Who does that? It's so unprofessional, unethical and scammy! Her cost was already appallingly over the top for a simple roots job! Why does she think she deserves a tip on top of that? I should never have paid that inflated amount. I called Wendy Wendy when I got home to ask if she could give me some credit back for the overcharge. She said she'd consider it and call me back. She never called. I would NEVER have agreed to a $190 roots fee if I was given an honest answer when I called to ask the price. DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY WENDY! Demand to get a price before you make an appointment. Better yet, go somewhere else with reasonable, not ridiculous fees and deceptive "gratuities."
