By definition, a sanctuary is a place of refuge or safety, and this salon most def lives up to its…read morename. Bursting with creativity, it's a safe space for getting experimental, whether you're chopping off a few precious inches or looking for the most perfect blonde highlights.
Finding a salon and a hairstylist is like dating: you have to play the field a bit, get together a couple of times, weigh your options, and ultimately decide whether they're worth settling down for. It's exhausting, but once you meet the one, there's no turning back. Lucky for me, the stylist I visit, Meghan, is a wizard, and hasn't let me down since.
In fact, I doubt any of the stylists here let their clients down, because they're all just so awesome and talented; Sanctuary Salon is basically like a revolving door of killer hair where you never leave without feeling like a million bucks. (a million-hair?)
Today, I arrived for my 3:30 pm appointment, and the place was poppin' for a Wednesday afternoon! Known for its incredibly cool team of stylists and colorists, the salon has made a name for itself, and since I see a stylist whose Instagram handle is @alittlemoreblonde ("A Little More Blonde"), I know I'm in good hands when it comes to my blonde hair (give her a follow to check out her work!).
Meghan manages to give me not what I requested, but something even better. It's always glossy, pretty, and doesn't look too 'try-hardy.' She's also tuned in with the best of hair-color technology, as it seems Sanctuary's team of stylists frequently hosts or attends continuing education events (I know this bc I peep their social media, duh.)
Best of all, the hair color and highlights she gives me always grow out like a dream; there's no harsh line of demarcation, and people compliment me on my color even months later. Today I left with a really great transitional "fall blonde," with my locks showing off a super nice, dimensional-yet-subtle ombré that is a new look for me, so I'm pumped to rock it out this season. I never leave without booking my next appointment, and I already can't wait to for my Holiday 2019 glow up.
Hopefully, you're prepared for a long-term, committed relationship, because you're bound to fall in love with Sanctuary and one of its talented stylists. Here's to love, health, happiness, and really, really great hair!
