I went to the stylist who cuts my hair, explained my vision and that I could only do color after saving up for it, so not often. I walked out with highlights that were all the way to the root and the opposite of the picture I showed. After sobbing on the phone with my sister, she recommended Elizabeth to fix it. I got in the next day and she fixed the 90s highlights and did what I had originally wanted. She made me feel awesome and I felt confident the entire appointment. Her artistic background allows her to create masterpieces. She knows what she is doing and I'm definitely going back!

From the owner: I LOVE my second career! After spending many years as both an art and early childhood educator, and…read moreas a professional artist, I am now getting to utilize the myriad of skills and experiences acquired during that time in the field of cosmetology. I am already a seasoned teacher and artist, so I feel like helping people look and feel their absolute best is a natural fit. I feel so blessed to get to communicate with my clients on a personal level, establishing together what works best for each of them, and then creating an art piece with their hair! Since I'm all about education, not only am I continually keeping myself current, but I am also devoted to providing my clients with instruction and support for maintaining and being creative with their own hair. Just as it thrills my soul to experience the pure joy of a student who has just discovered or mastered a new concept, the same is true when I see a huge smile of appreciation, or hear the gratitude in a client's voice ...

Finding the right stylist has been a challenge ever since I moved to the lake several years ago. I…read morehad begun cutting my own hair... with severely mixed results. A few days ago I broke down and decided to call a professional. Cheryl came highly recommended here and across the internet. Today she cut my hair and it came out really well. It was a big change for me, so I sort of walked out of the salon in a daze. After a few hours of getting used to it, I'm thrilled with her work. I'm so excited to hang up my shears and trust Cheryl.

Ustena was very kind and certainly knowledgeable about her craft. Hilarious to boot. I knew going…read morein that it was going to be unconventional as others had put it, so I came in prepared. Pictures upon pictures. I have extremely curly hair and it looks wildly different when wet than dry. I had pictures of what I wanted, and what I didn't want, how it shrinks when dry, and so forth. I appreciated her tips and tricks, however, when it came to the actual cut I feel like I did not get what I wanted. I specifically asked for a stacked, inverted bob. I don't have that and I feel like at this point I am going to have to grow my hair back out to get what I wanted. The cut is even, looks nice and I have received compliments, the problem is it isn't what I wanted, so I feel let down.

Ustena is fantastic! She's not just a stylist, she's a hair artist…read more I wish I'd discovered her sooner! After several bad experiences with stylists here I gave up and only got my hair done when I flew back "home" to Los Angeles. Meeting Ustena changed all that. She's just as good (maybe even better, especially with doing color) than my L.A. stylist who I'd loyally gone to for 7yrs. Ustena knows hair better than anyone I've ever met... she's so passionate about it. She's also full of great advice and won't fry your hair just because your heart is set on a certain color (I find this commendable). Ustena genuinely cares about her clients and while her methods may be a tad unconventional, all appointments involve lots of talking so be prepared to spend some time here, she takes a personal interest in her clients and really gets to know you. While I like her approach and love spending time here, it's the few moments/hours of "me" time I get I can see how this may not be for everyone. (However even if you want something fast, I highly recommend you give her process a chance and then make a decision based on your haircare results, it'll be worth it!) Your first appointment you actually discuss your hair type/needs/desires/etc...you're definitely going to spend the better part of a day here but it's well worth it.... besides how many people can say their stylist cares enough to teach them about their own hair care? It's not just hair care either, Ustena showed me how to use bobby pins correctly... this may not sound super exciting, but I have silky/baby fine hair so bobby pins have always slipped right out. Ustena showed me how to use them the "right" way and it's transformed my daily styling options. Since I've met Ustena I won't go to anyone else for hair color. No one else could do it as well. When I wanted to transition from highlights, to a more blondish color, I brought in a bunch of photos to show her. She looked at the photos with me, asked questions and then came up with a color that was better than anything I'd brought in. Ustena is brilliant. A master of her craft. And I don't say that lightly. I'm so picky that I used to fly to Los Angeles to get my hair done and I'm thrilled that not only do I have a stylist I love here but I didn't settle either - she's awesome :)

Shear Soul is a small salon tucked away in the funky art district in downtown CoMo. It is far removed from the crowded, impersonal "fishbowl" mega-salons where you feel "on display" and overcharged for services you're not always thrilled with! Jenn listens to your preferences and delivers expert services. She discusses options, approaches cautiously and is not "scissor-happy" - you won't ever leave feeling like you got a chop job! Her coloring process is on target and timely. I'm done in half the time with better results than other salons that take twice as long and cost more! You are never waiting and feeling "forgotten" while she is working on another client - that does NOT happen here. If all of this sounds appealing - go see Jenn at Shear Soul - you won't regret it!
