This rating is just for the work done - the salon is fine, lots of parking, stylist/owner is very personable. However, I hate my haircut. I rarely use that word but in this case it is necessary. I'd grown my hair past my shoulders. Before she started, I showed pics of the type of long, angled bob I wanted and she seemed to understand. I said I didn't know how long the back should be if I wanted the front be just above the collarbone. She checked the back and suggested around the neck to which I deferred to her professional opinion.
I'm pretty blind without my glasses off so after my color, had no idea she was chopping off so much until she showed me the finished product. I was horrified - not only was it about 3-4 inches shorter than I wanted (girls, you know that's a BIG difference), there wasn't even any angle between the front and back. My bob was at my jawline - like the kind of hairstyle a 84 year old grandma gets. I was in such shock, all I could mention was that it wasn't angled. I mean, what could she do, she'd already cut it all off?
Not sure if she didn't know how to do angled bob or she was having too much fun with stories as she is very laid back and talkative. In retrospect, I wish there was less chatting and more focus on my cut. I have 3 functions/events coming up and was looking forward to rocking a sleek new do, but my hair is so bad I've be using a hairband or clip to just pull it back as best I can. It will take me a year to grow out my hair again.
She has good product knowledge and sold me a product for my hair type. Perhaps one would have better luck here with maintaining a current cut - rather than getting a new style - or by being an 84 year old grandmother.
