I went to this salon to take up my special deal voucher, where I got a hair cut, colour and…read moretreatment for a discounted price. I was happy with the service and the stylist seemed sincerely concerned about my hair growth. I was stressing that my hair is not growing at a regular pace and she was determined that if she continued to cut my hair that it would definitely grow quicker. That's a pretty big promise to make. But she was very convincing. The salon is small and they are known as the best eye-brow shapers in Sydney, or at least they advertise to be. I didn't have time to try that service too. There is a cute dog that runs around the salon - it is not big and does not bark much.

My Valentines present from my partner was to get my hair coloured from brunette to blonde. After…read morebooking with another salon, I found a voucher on a daily deals website for a full head of foils, cut & blow-dry at Paris Pearl. I thought ''excellent! Save half the cost'' On the night of the appointment I went in with my boyfriend and showed the hairdresser a photo of me a few years back on what colour blonde I wanted. She said that's fine, a bit of my darker colour would come through though. I was ok with this. 3 hours later at 9pm and I was all done. After we left, my boyfriend said he expected a lot blonder than what I got. The next day in the natural light I was very disappointed with the result. The shade of blonde I had was no-where near the shade of blonde in the photo that I was expecting. At work, one of my colleagues lifted my hair & said that you could see the horizontal stripes where the foils were, it looked all over very stripey & I should go back. On Saturday I consulted with a hairdresser in the original salon I booked, and she suggested I go back & ask them to fix it, she said the same thing, that it was very stripey & blotches of blonde everywhere when I put my hair back & the foils had ''bled' because they were put too close to the scalp. My boyfriend & I went back to Paris Pearl & spoke to the girl who did my hair. I told her I wasn't happy with the end result, and showed her the photo that I showed her on the night of the booking. She explained that as I had a boxed colour in my hair, this would involve a colour correction (which she did not mention on the night of the appointment) and it would require two tone foils which she said was not part of the offer. (The voucher T&C's did not mention anything about only one tone allowed). She was worried that since my hair was so thin, putting a bleach blonde colour in and that I had a boxed colour in my hair, if she did the shade I requested my hair would snap off to about 5cm in length. I WAS NOT ADVISED ANY OF THIS ON THE NIGHT OF MY BOOKING There was another hairdresser there, who took photo's of my hair, both with it down, and pulled back. My boyfriend pulled a section of my hair back to assist with the photo's. My hairdresser said she could not make any decisions on what the resolution would be, she would have to speak to her manager. I left my contact details & we left the salon. About half an hour later, on Saturday afternoon I got a call from the manager. She introduced herself & said ''I understand there was a song & dance this morning about your hair colour'' I replied ''well not really a song & dance, I am just not happy with the result of my hair'' and begun to explain the situation. She then went on the rattle off a whole heap of statistics on how many of these deal vouchers they do, other statistics about the salon. She then said that my boyfriend was pushing my hair around pointing out what was wrong with the colour. I corrected her, that he merely lifted a section of my hair to get a good shot when the girl was taking photo's. She then proceeded to say to me ''maybe you were listening to the opinion of your boyfriend instead of your own opinion. Whatever you have going on between the two of you is your business'' Needless to say I was shocked, insulted & appalled on a personal attack on myself & my boyfriend! The phone conversation continued very one sided, with the manager offering me a full refund straight away without an offer to fix my hair. She continued to talk over me whenever I tried to say something, saying that they had won multiple awards & are a very community based business. She said that there is a cheque waiting at reception for me for a full refund & that was the end of the discussion. She said goodbye before I could say anything. We went back to the salon straight away to collect the refund check. As soon as we arrived, the manager came out, as well as the 2 hairdressers we spoke to earlier that day, as well as the managers son. We felt like this was an intimidation tactic incase we made any trouble!! Whilst she was writing the check, she looked at my hair (which was pulled back showing the terrible stripes) and shook her head. Whether that was in disbelief that I had the nerve to complain, or in disbelief that such a bad job had been done. Needless to say I will NEVER recommend PARIS PEARL to anyone who asks, and by the ''service'' I received by the manager because shock! Horror! I decided to speak up, I urge anyone to steer clear.

I sat down and explained to the owner from the beginning that I wanted an ombre and showed pictures of what I wanted, she didn't know what an ombre was and had completely damaged half my head when she just bleached the bottom half with no highlight or blending technique it just look ridiculous, then she told me this is what I wanted. I had to go to another salon to FIX yes FIX the damaged caused and they recommended the bleached part to be cut off as the bleach that she used was too strong and it damaged my long hair. cheapness comes at a price - I CRIED :(

After I arrived in Sydney, I stopped by to make an appointment. Fortunately, Anna was able to see me later in the afternoon which fit my schedule perfectly. She did an awesome job.

Because of the lack of the second shampoo, I had hair inside of my shirt and undershirt which I had to remove with a lint roller.

In fact, you'd be suprised by the type of clientele - there are a lot more princesses who visit here than you expect.... but keep it on the downlow - they wouldn't want their secret getting out.... It's decor is super simple so don't expect to feel like you're going to a 5 star salon, but your haircut and colour will make you feel like you've had a 5 star experience. Perhaps the no frills is reflected by the pricing too. Considering how super expensive haircuts in Sydney can be, this is a place where you can and will get excellent value for money. They offer all hair services from cutting, colouring, blowdrying and straightening. The staff are very friendly and make you feel very comfortable. I wold highly recommend this salon and suggest that you don't judge a book by its cover. Prices start from $30...give them a buzz to make an appointment and to ge ta full listing of their prices.

The set-up here is cute and girlie, all black and white with a bit of a boudoir vibe with black velvet pin-cushioned seats, swirly patterned wallpaper and crystal chandeliers. I only called up a couple of days before and they were able to fit me in even though my appointment was for a Saturday morning - always busy at hair salons. They seemed to be running a bit behind schedule when I arrived, which was fine as I wasn't in a rush and they were friendly about it. My hair turned out looking really nice and the stylist listened to what I asked for when I sat down to have it done, but I definitely felt that this was a get-through-as-many-bookings-as-possible kind of place - it was only at the very end of my service that my stylist talked to me, after having spent half an hour gossiping with the colleague on his other side. Still, they were efficient, friendly and did their job well, so I was very happy.

Who are these other…read morewomen who are posting positive reviews online about a great blowdry experience and even used the word "relaxing"? I'd like to use THEIR stylist because getting a blowdry/style should be relaxing. My hair's getting longer and is now becoming more work for me, so why not treat myself? I noticed the salon once when walking in the neighbourhood. It's near my dog's daycare/clinic and easy parking. Reviews were very positive. I have my own stylist for cuts and colour but not always easy to get into so I figured this place was perfect for a quick fix. I used the online booking system which works well. Last Friday was my first appt. Washing my hair was a bit rough, not relaxing at all. The blowdry technique, again, a bit rough but i was really happy with the style. I decided to book again for Monday. Was given the same girl. Same jerky wash and blowdry. After, I asked for her to spritz with some spray and she used Final Net. Hey, I'm not a premadonna but I actually didn't even know this still existed. Both visits, not very warm and friendly. Didn't seem like she wanted to be there. 3rd time's a charm? Answer: no. This time, I booked for the last appt today. Same girl again! Really?? I figured maybe it just takes a while for her to warm up so I decided to give her another chance. When I walked in, I wasn't greeted with a smile. She seemed very rushed. It was the WORST experience. She jerked my head in every direction. Painful. I'm actually a bit mad at myself for not stopping her. She was also quite inquisitive as to why I was there again. She was more oddly curious than she was making conversation. "Weren't you here earlier this week?" I said "Yes". On Monday". "And you're here again today? Are you going out tonight?" She would ask me to turn my head a certain way but when she was yanking my hair with the brush, of course, my head would move so she then would push my head back where she wanted it. And, I read, from another review, that the salons use Kerastase products. Where were those? Again, not that I'm a premadonna but...... So not worth it. I'd rather pay more to get treated like a customer should be treated. Very disappointed. Won't be coming back.
