Would you like something to drink? Do you need to go to the bathroom? Happy birthday!" Etc... I had booked an extra 10 minute scalp massage so when I glanced at my watch as I sat in the shampoo bowl I noticed it was 10:03. She shampooed my hair and then lightly layed her index fingers over my forehead (?) then conditioned my hair, rinsed and wrapped a towel around my hair and when I sat up my watch said 10:09 so I figured she had forgot about the massage. We discussed that I wanted big bouncy blow out waves but I stated my hair didn't hold a curl well so it was ok if the curls were a little tighter. She then turned me away from the mirror for about 25 minutes and when she turned me around I had tight Shirley temple-esque curls. I instinctively reached up to touch them and she said offered half heartedly to "run her fingers through my curls" which I stated I could do on my own. When I went to check out, I clarified the extra charge for the scalp massage since it had been so brief and she was clearly irritated, but the other staff person said the charge could be taken off. The sign by the register suggested $12 as a tip if you "liked it " seeing as I DISLIKED it, I added a $10 tip to which she rolled her eyes at me and still included the charge for the "massage" which I awkwardly had to correct a second time. By the time I finally paid I was shaking- I felt so uncomfortable, frustrated and irritated and sad that my birthday was starting out on such a bad note. Needless to say, I won't be back.

Google is free). Add $12 parking at Union Square garage, so close to $170 deep for a blowout. For that price, I expected polished. What I got felt rushed. I paid extra for extensions but was paired with someone who clearly didn't have much extension experience. The wash was super quick (definitely no massage), and when she brushed my hair she was rough, like yanking-my-head-around rough. At one point she even asked, "Does that hurt?" which is never a comforting question mid-service. By the end, one of my front extension beads had been pulled out, leaving a noticeable bump at the front of my hair for weeks. When she finished the blowout, we both kind of looked at it like... ummmmm. It just didn't look good. She asked if I wanted her to touch up the front, so she grabbed a curler for my bangs, and literally picked old hairs out of it before wrapping my hair. I wish I was kidding. It felt very last-minute. She adjusted a few pieces I pointed out, and I left saying, "Maybe it'll fall and look better later?" She said, "Yeah..." It completely fell the next day. I ended up touching it up myself. Before leaving that first appointment, I asked if I could come back for the complimentary touch-up and upgrade to a half-up style by just paying the $30 difference. I was told yes, of course. Three days later I came back downtown for my touch-up. New stylist. I asked about upgrading to the half-up and paying the $30 difference like I was told. She checked and came back saying no - I'd have to pay the full $165. I said I didn't have time for a full wash and everything, and she said, "Oh you don't have to wash, we can just do the style." But for the full $165 For just styling. Wild. So I just did the complimentary touch-up. Ironically, she used a straightener for the curls and it looked way better and lasted way longer which only reminded me how poorly the first blowout was done. Overall, the vibe felt slightly annoyed and not very welcoming. For this price point, I expect consistency, extension experience, and a polished result. Instead I left feeling overcharged and underwhelmed.

Thankfully, Blowology Dry Bar and Spa came through! I needed a slicked-back bun for an event, and my stylist, Ali, was awesome. He told me it was his first time doing that kind of updo, but honestly, you wouldn't have known. He took his time, made sure it wasn't too tight (huge win for my scalp), and the end result looked great. He even gave me a discount since it was his first time doing a bun for a customer. which I thought was super thoughtful. I also thought the ambiance of the salon was super cozy and brought all the vintage vibes!

Unfortunately, because of a time zone issue in their booking system, the appointment was apparently entered as 12:00 PM instead. I use Square regularly in NYC and have never experienced this kind of confusion before. What made the situation especially frustrating was the complete lack of accommodation or understanding when I arrived. I was simply told the issue was noted somewhere on the website, but if this is a known problem, it should be made extremely clear and impossible to miss -- especially for out-of-town clients visiting Napa. They also stated they called me around noon, but I never received a phone call or missed call notification. The experience felt disappointing and unprofessional from start to finish. Napa is known for hospitality and customer service, and sadly this business did not reflect that at all. I hope they improve both their booking communication and their willingness to work with customers when issues like this happen.
