Even the hairdryer was dirty! My stylist didn't listen to what I wanted and did what she wanted and when I asked her to please make darker highlights as I wanted grey mixed with dark grey, she said the toner would do this but it didn't. She said I should go home and see if I get use to it and if not- to reschedule another appointment. I payed with tip almost $100 so I can't afford to make another appointment! I am stuck with something I didn't want in the first place plus that place is so dirty I am afraid I will get sick from being there!

Reviewing for Victoria at Hello Handsome (not to be confused with Hello Beautiful, the larger salon…read morethat Hello Handsome resides within). Everything about my recent first visit was perfect: The space is nicely set up in a private side room, which is very quiet and relaxing. I immediately knew I was in good hands when I heard the cozy sounds of Lo-Fi on the radio. Victoria is personable and pleasurable to chat with, but most importantly, she is highly professional. She has years of formal training in men's haircutting and it shows. I am something of a haircut hobbyist, having watched many hours of haircutting tutorials and documentary-style videos from around the globe from the world's best barbers. Everything Victoria does is in line with these methods, from the way she cuts to the way she folds and applies a hot towel. On my visit I requested a haircut, beard trim, and mini-facial. The haircut was damage control on a very poor cut I got a few days earlier at one of the dime-a-dozen barber shops in the area staffed by guys who have no idea what they're doing. Victoria perfectly fixed what was a butchered haircut into a clean, sophisticated (but not fussy) style. Next was the beard trim - at home I do it myself following the method taught by Matty Conrad of Victory Barber & Brand. I was surprised and delighted to see that Victoria followed this same technique of freehand shaping and trimming, which had the result of a properly shaped and angled beard, rather than just running over everything with clippers set to a specific single length like other places. Lastly was the mini-facial - what can I say? My wife and I just had our first kid a few weeks ago, so stress levels have been through the roof. Sitting for 30 minutes while Victoria gently massaged my neck and face, applying creams and hot towels, made me feel like a new man. On the way out, I told Victoria that she has made a customer for life. Her prices are extremely reasonable for the services and quality she provides. Back in NYC where I used to live, a comparable level of service would cost 2-3x at any quality shop, e.g. Fleischman, which I used to visit regularly. Guys, do yourself a favor - stop messing around at the bottom-barrel places and take the step of letting yourself be groomed by a real professional. You deserve it.

Popped in for a spruce up mid- summer, made appointment with Samantha. She did a full color,…read morehighlight, and cut for my beach worn hair. Perfectly cut, with multiple layers and point cutting to add fullness. My husband gushed at the results and thought I looked 20 years younger! I'd recommend her any day for your hair, and promise perfection to even the most fussy client.

This was by far the worst service I have ever received. Me and my soon to be sisters-in-law went…read morehere for a girls day on our vacation. I do not live in town, I am over 4 hours from this salon. Danielle (long red hair and glasses) I believe her name is completely ruined my hair. I went in asking for a subtle balayage and provided a picture. My hair has been heavily highlighted blonde for the past year and my natural dark brown roots grew out an inch or so. I asked/showed the stylist the picture and she insisted we bleach my roots then put the brown back onto my roots because it gives it depth. I thought how bizarre but ok. My hair is naturally a 4 or 5 and she put a 7 which did not take. Mind you my roots were bright orange once she was done with the bleach. She then puts a 5 on the sides of my head at the roots and leaves the top. I insisted she put the dark back on my roots at the top of my head as I didn't want to look like a skunk and I don't know what she was envisioning! That didn't take fully either, but Danielle played it off like it looked great. I then asked her to TRIM my hair and she utterly botched it. She had me turned away from the mirror 90% of the time so I could not see what she was doing. She kept cutting and cutting after I told her to stop taking off the length. My hair is naturally curly, frizzy and very thick. I look horrible! She then tried to say we should bob it! I have an important weekend planned and I can't feel confident with how bad my hair looks. My hair takes FOREVER to grow. She did not seem like she wanted to continue to fix it and honestly I don't think she could. I sat in the chair for 7 hours!! My hair was just past my shoulders... how is that even possible!? I caught her closing her eyes while she was cutting my hair as if she was falling asleep. I will call and speak to the owner for a refund!! You ruined my hair and my vacation. She also cut my sister-in-laws hair and did a horrible job. She will be complaining as well. I will submit pictures of my haircut and my scalp that she chemically burned! There was also hair dye left at the bast of my roots in the back... horrible. The owner insisted I come in for her to fix my hair. I restated that I DO NOT live in town and am over 4 hours away. She said the only way to fix it was for her to look at my hair. She denied refunding my money as Andrea is an independent contractor... the payment went through the salon to Andrea. Someone needs to make this right and give me my money back, it is unethical how this salon operates. Clearly the customer is not right even when they provide pictures of the horrible work. I went to another stylist and she was amazed at what Andrea did to my hair and that they even charged me for it! It's going to cost me a hefty penny, more time in the chair and time off work to fix this mess!! Never go here.
