This place doesn't know what an undercut is. I had to explain it to them. I suppose it's fine if…read moreyou want you average trim or style, but it is not the place to go if you want something new or edgy. Too old fashioned. And my stylist was very rude, looked at me like I was crazy when I showed her the photos. Had to tell her what I wanted and almost walked out. Wish I would have, wasted my money and ended up doing it at home because it was not straight at all. Just HORRIBLE!

MEGAN WILL CUT YOUR HAIR! She'll do it good. When Mrs. S and me moved to Brookings, we were leaving…read morea hairdresser we loved, a hairdresser we'd spent years with. Her name was Jessica and she worked at a salon that was consistently ranked as one of the best salons in a major east coast metropolis so, y'know, FAUNCY. I have annoyingly thick, wavy hair (if I do say so myself) that, when cut by hacks (as it was throughout most of my youth), within three weeks becomes puffy and unruly. It resembles pubic hair along the sides. It's altogether unmanageable. I spent most of my teenage and college years hating my hair. How can I describe it? Blacks cultivate Afros and Jews bemoan their Jewfros - what do Teutons call their headpuff? I looked like Beethoven in those paintings of Beethoven, and he was wearing a wig, so it was on purpose, must've been fashionable, so I guess I would've been hot shit in the 18th century. Today, I just look like crazy hair. No good. Then I moved to east and met Mrs. S., who set me up with Jessica, who knew how to cut hair. For the first time in my miserable stinking life, I could enjoy my thick, wavy hair. The universe was no longer a total disaster. When we moved out here to the Territories, I was convinced it would take years to find someone as good as my previous hairdresser...if I found someone at all. I was resigned to regular trips to Omaha, Minneapolis, even Chicago (or simply back east to Jessica) in order to get a decent haircut. If I was LUCKY, there was a competent hairdresser in Sioux Falls. No way that's gonna happen in Brookings. I was totally wrong. Locals who know hooked us up with Megan right away. She's set up in a cute little salon in the same building with j.ella und that Old Market restaurant that keeps changing owners. At first, I was suspicious: she didn't wash my hair before cutting it, and I was used to that happening (turns out she does it after - whatevs). But she got the cut right the FIRST time. Granted, I brought instructions from my previous hairdresser, which Megan was TOTALLY cool about. The instructions were pretty basic, so about 10% of the cut's success was the instructions and the other 90% was Megan. Nailed it. Granted, getting a good haircut in the salon is only the first step. It's gotta grow out good. So I was stoked when, three weeks later, I didn't need to return and get my Teutfro under control. Nor the week after that. I could reschedule at my leisure - the hair was growing out great. Oh, and because it's Brookings, it's cheap. Megan can - and probably should, at some point - charge way more than she's charging for a men's haircut: fifteen freaking bucks!! I've heard Megan is really adept at men's haircuts. My wife's color and cut routine is a bit more complicated, and it took her and Megan a few rounds to get it right. But again, Megan was TOTALLY cool about everything - she listened to what my wife said, was respectful and responsive and willing to make changes, but also relied on her own training and instincts when she needed to. Megan is very professional and easy to work with. She strikes a great balance - ESSENTIAL in a hairdresser- between listening to what you want and knowing when you're wrong. Mrs. S. and I are extremely happy clients.

I'm visiting from Los Angeles so naturally I'm very loud and extremely demanding but coming to…read moreSioux Falls I was pleasantly surprised I needed a very quick beard trim luckily one of the stylist who works here who is incredibly talented very efficient and literally can eyeball the most awesome solution for somebody who looks like they've been dressing in the dark for 30 years... That's me by the way this is Stroh, I had to call her that because her husband was so wonderfully polite and I met him earlier, was lucky to book me all I had to do was call in and ask availability and even if she wasn't available there was a good chance someone else would be but this is a full service salon that anybody in Los Angeles with envy it is beautifully laid out it has endless options for all sorts of cosmetic needs... I literally would bribe every one of my ex-wives with the stay at this place. However the prices are incredibly reasonable and what you get in return is a value much greater than what you paid for. You need a trim, coloring, manicure, pedicure, full salon experience?? You won't go anywhere else seriously I think people should fly in from Siberia there is no better salon

We had our bridesmaid hair done by a chameleon and it was not a great experience…read more -They were not very friendly or professional. Making snide comments to each other in front of clients. Seemed to get annoyed if a client asked them to change or fix something -The quality of the up-dos most definitely did not match the cost that they charged. Each bridesmaid had to have their hair re-done by a hairstylist from a different vendor to fix what they did. They did not seem to listen to the style being asked or able to execute them properly. They very much do "old school" hair (I.e- very tight buns, large poofs, etc) again, not at all the vibe anyone asked for. -Seemed to be a lack of communication/organization between the studio and the bride The studio brought more stylists than agreed upon, and threatened to charge the bride if their "chairs were not filled". Again, lacking professionalism with the way they handled this.
