During my first trip to Tennessee, Ashleigh was recommended to me as a hairstylist that could do my…read morehair for our engagement photos and wedding. Being from New Jersey, I immediately booked a flight to view our wedding venue in TN and get my hair done to see if Ashleigh was the one for our big day. I walked into the salon and immediately loved it. Ashleigh has trendy decor lining the entire salon which made a huge difference to me and was very welcoming. I felt like I was back at home in a trendy NYC style salon but with friendlier people :) I added on to my service and she was very sweet to accommodate my request. In nearly 90 degree humid weather, she was able to make my hair look beautiful for our engagement photo session despite the weather challenge. Needless to say, I booked her for the wedding right away. If you are looking for a friendly place with a talented stylist, this is the place for you. Ashleigh is knowledgeable and on trend with the latest techniques & styles. She is quick and maximizes the time you have with her. I am VERY picky about who touches my hair and I trust her completely. You are in great hands with Ashleigh! She also recommended a makeup artist and I had a trial session at her salon the day I went to get my hair done.

I made this appointment months in advance for a Gala I was traveling from FL to Chattanooga for. The morning of, I received a very brief text from Caroline telling me she was sick and had to "reschedule." No phone call, no I'm so sorry, nothing. How do you reschedule for a Gala? This was very troubling and did not sound right so I called the salon around my appointment time and she answered and was seeing clients! When I told her who it was and that I could come on now, she began whispering and used the excuse she could not get in touch with these other clients to cancel and would be leaving soon. She was talking fine and was even laughing when she answered. How unprofessional and just plain thoughtless to just cancel when obviously she was not sick enough to close up, I will never go back and do not recommend depending on someone who let outside influences determine who she sees and can cancel on you like it's nothing. Caroline, If you didn't want to do my hair for "obvious personal reasons, which are very clear," you had months to cancel and just be honest but waiting until a few hours before an important event is just wrong and heartless.

Expect to get styled with Big Sexy Hair and other pharmacy-level styling product. And they won't even ask you first, so that's fun. I came to Banana Tree because a previous salon was using quick color on my hair and it had slowly gone black. (I'm naturally fair skinned and have dark brown hair). I got paired with Sandy, who immediately told me my hair was definitely too dark and should only be worn by "Asian people." I was a little shocked by the culturally insensitive comment, but she's older and swore she could help me. I just wanted a rich brunette, not black. First mistake. Cue two rounds of highlights. And, while they looked nice, the highlights themselves were turning quite gold verging on blond--way lighter than I wanted or asked for. So, on my third appointment, I shared that my hair was getting way too gold and that I wanted my hair to be a rich brunette (The initial ask, actually). Sandy reacted really poorly to this, telling me that no matter what she did there was always going to be gold in my hair. She even took me outside to test several options to my hair. But it wasn't in a kind way, it felt more to prove herself right and to embarrass me in front of the rest of the salon. Ultimately, she said my natural color was the one that I came in with. (I was a little whiplashed by this considering I remembered her very culturally insensitive remark). She gave me two option: 1. She could do my roots darker then blend the color to the rest of my hair. But, she emphasized, there was going to be gold which is what I didn't want. The other option was to dye all of my hair the darker color. Have you ever had someone give you two options but they're not really options at all? That's what happened here. I was so overwhelmed by everything she was telling me and embarrassed because she was making such a scene that I agreed to just get rid of the gold. I really wish I had walked away instead. But I stupidly didn't. Sandy then put me under the heater much longer than I've ever spent there in the previous times at the salon. The result? My hair is jet black. And somehow the areas where I had highlights seem even darker--I'm told because the pigment had been removed and repacked with darker color. It's awful. I've never not tipped someone before. But I was so totally overwhelmed that I called the salon to remove the 20% tip I still gave her. The owner asked what had happened and that's when I burst out into tears. She told me to try putting baking soda in my hair to get it out and offered to help fix what had happened and talk to Sandy. Well, I tried to the baking soda and nothing happened. Then, I got a text from the owner saying Sandy had given me options but I had chosen what had happened to my hair. Ultimately, I got mean girled and bullied by a stylist who left my hair in a worse state than when I came to this salon. And I came to them for help! Stay away. It lies about being organic, pushes their cheaply branded products on you and the stylists gaslight you instead of helping solve relatively easy requests. I literally left that salon thinking I was going to have to shave my head or just continue keeping my hair black. After all, Sandy had highlighted my hair like crazy (which has made it unhealthy). And, I'm currently at another salon praying that they can fix what she so cruelly did to my hair.
