So let me start off by saying that I WILL be returning to this place. My three star review is based…read moreoff of some things that happened that really have nothing to do with how my hair ultimately turned out. The hair first: so I got a cut and color. I am very nervous and picky when it comes to my hair color especially. I've had some bad experiences and don't like to have further bad experiences! Admittedly, I wanted my dark blonde hair lifted to a pale neutral blonde (very light, but not white - still blonde). This sounds easy because my natural color is already fairly light, but blonde is complicated. I also wanted a short pixie cut, which ALSO isn't the easiest thing to do. Taylor did my hair along with the help of an instructor, and I think she made a really good effort. It took an extremely long time, and that's something you need to be aware of before going to this place. These are students who are learning through doing, so it takes them longer. That was fine with me, but I was a bit bothered by the multiple lectures I got that basically amounted to a bunch of excuses as to why they couldn't get the look I was describing. This even happened when I mentioned and showed pictures of this look having been done successfully on previous occasions at my old salon. I've had short pale blonde hair (when I didn't let it grow out to my natural) for about 16 years now. This exact color has been successfully done on my head hundreds of times. Now...even if it's true that hair color can turn out differently or not take properly from one time to the next....first of all, that isn't my experience, and secondly, I don't think they should be blaming the color not working out on the customer's hair. They're the stylists and control the color application. I'm ultimately pretty happy with my hairstyle. I may update if need be after I wash my hair and style on my own, but as of immediately after the appointment, even though I'm exhausted I gotta say it looks pretty epic. So I'm pleased with that. Some additional things I want to mention though that contributed to my three star review: 1. Again, it took an extremely long time. Two visits. Probably around 8 hours in total. This actually isn't why I'm only rating three stars, because I expected the longer time, but I have to say both times left me utterly exhausted, I think because I had to go without eating for a very long time. This may not be an issue for everyone, but I have some medical conditions and this was very taxing for me. 2. Speaking of medical things, I also got injured while there. The student next to Taylor dropped her iPad pretty forcefully on my shoulder because she got excited over her mom calling. It WAS an accident, but it hurt so bad I struggled against crying for nearly half an hour. The pain is still really bad and between that and the exhaustion I am feeling from the length of time this took, I've been fighting nausea and more tears tonight. I also have a pretty nasty bruise forming. My pain tolerance is NOT low - I have Ehlers-Danlos and have dislocated my shoulder with less pain than this, but I think because the iPad landed right onto the bulk of the muscle at the top of my shoulder this bruised really deeply. I tried to take it in stride because I don't think she realized how badly she hurt me, but then this same person tossed out my coffee (which was on Taylor's station, not hers!). I'm pretty sure that was when I showed some real irritation, because I was in pain AND had no coffee. When I said something about it she gave me $5 for the coffee, but the entire thing left me feeling really off balance. Plus, I'm just hoping my shoulder is ok. Overall, I would recommend this place. There are things to work on there, but the people are very friendly and the atmosphere is upbeat. I will be going back, and probably next time just take more snacks with me. And hopefully not get hurt again!

This was my first experience with the Paul Mitchell school. Not my first time going to a beauty…read moreschool for services as I frequently went to Aveda school in Cool Springs when I lived closer. I decided to go for a leg wax today. With this service, you are unfortunately not able to book with a more experienced student like the other services. My student, Tiffany, was very nice but you could tell she was extremely uncomfortable, and not confident in waxing. I should've paid attention to that first red flag. It went downhill quickly from there. She struggled with the wax temp,but anyone could've had that issue. First problem was the wax was not hot enough, so she struggled to spread it on my leg. Then she would place wax on several areas without placing a strip, so the wax hardened. She was getting frazzled and letting me know. On my back thigh she put a large amount of wax and then the strip. Again it sat too long, so when she went to remove it, it was STUCK!! She was in a panic to get it off and kept apologizing to me. I tried to help by showing her what most places do to remove it. It did not work. After a good almost 8-10 minutes she ran out saying she needed her teacher. The instructor came in and tried to calm her down. They then worked together to try and get the strip off. She kept telling Tiffany it was fine and the customer "doesn't care because they know we are a school". Well this customer was worried about what was going on. They finally got the strip off, then the teacher told me I will have a bad bruise but they won't wax that area anymore and opted for tweezers. They asked me if this ever happened before and I quickly said NO.! I've been getting waxed for 30yrs and never had this happen. My waxing of just my thighs took almost 2 HOURS! Normally I'm in/out of wax appointments in 30min. What gets me is that I know at Aveda the instructors check consistently on the students through each process. This DID NOT happen for my appointment. This never should've happened. Tiffany, again very sweet, was not confident at all. It was obvious from the beginning. Her instructor, Kelly, never should have allowed her to do this unsupervised. I figured because I left with wax still stuck on my thighs, and a large bruise in the shape of a wax strip, that they would not charge me. NOPE! Not only was I charged, but when checking out they asked how it was and I told them, there was no apology from the manager. I will not ever go and get a haircut there, and now I'm leery about a mani/pedi. Sadly this was a 1 and done place for me. It's not worth the savings.

Because we get impeccable, attentive service for hours at a time--at a fraction of the cost of other places. They offer various services, but we've especially taken advantage of the hair and facial treatments. People may be hesitant to let students work on their hair, but hair grows back. And honestly, I've found that so-called 'mistakes' often end up with even better results. No one has ever actually messed up our hair. My daughter is braver than I am--one year, she got her hair colored on the day of prom. The color wasn't exactly what she'd visualized, but she rolled with it. We both understand that these are students learning by experience, and we can't expect them to be pros. They try their best, and instructors guide them along. The instructors are experienced professionals who have graduated, worked in the field for a while, and now teach the right techniques. For example, one student was nervous about cutting my hair into many layers. So the instructor took over and chopped away--exactly what I wanted. When you go for hair services, plan on spending half the day there. You need patience so they can do their best work. If you come in with high expectations and rush them, things may not end well. It's a very laid-back environment. Honestly, I could have sat in the chair while my stylist washed my hair all day long. They could have stopped right there and taken my money just for the head massage. I encourage you to try them out. It's obvious people are mostly happy with the results--they stay booked. The facials are scheduled in time frames, and I recommend the 90-minute one. You'll keep going back!

During my visit recent hair appt., my student wasn't able to finish in time and another student stepped in, which felt confusing for them and suggested some unclear expectations from the educators. You're not asked to tip, but donations toward the students' education are welcomed. At $22 for a trim and wash, it's hard to beat, especially if you have long or thick hair. Be prepared to spend several hours, though. They offer small samples of tea and water, which is a nice touch. The environment is very crowded and could benefit from more space; my student was repeatedly bumped into, which isn't ideal when scissors are involved. I also felt some uncertainty around tool sanitation and overall tool quality, though it was hard to tell whether that fell on the students or the school. Overall, it's a great option if affordability is your priority and you're comfortable with a learning environment. I'd rate it a solid 3-4 stars.
