I had known Kelcee many years ago, and it was as if we had never missed a beat! Kelcee was so patient doing my hair trial as I was not sure what I wanted. The day of the wedding they were on time, attentive, professional, and honestly incredibly FUN! One of my mother's friends was in the room while we were all getting ready and she asked later if Kelcee and Lauren were just friends of ours that offered to do our hair for the wedding, that is how incredibly friendly and personable they both are. All of our hair came out perfect, and one bridesmaid who had been in many, many weddings said she had never had better hair for a wedding, and she told her sister to use them for her wedding!! I cannot say enough good things about Kelcee and Lauren, I could go on and on. If you need someone for wedding hair, Lauren and Kelcee are a MUST!

I purchased the livingsocial.com deal for a wash, cut, blowdry. I had never been to this salon…read morebefore and I'm desperate to find a new stylist that I can be loyal to :-) I have had some scary experiences (I think a few of them are on yelp!). When I first walked in, I was a little confused. There wasn't a receptionist so I just took a seat, someone came over a few minutes later to greet me. I then waited a few more minutes and a woman came and said she was going to wash my hair and I could have a seat at the wash station. A few initial observations - this place is very small. VERY small. They are also VERY busy so all the chairs were occupied with stylist behind them making things very tight. There are two wash bowls in the middle of the salon. I sat and waited. It was a little awkward. I almost wish she had just let me wait in the seating area. I had my hair washed - very relaxing and nice and then I had to go back over to the seating area and wait for my stylist..it was only a couple of minutes. Jess was my stylist and she didn't introduce herself, I only knew her name because when I made the appointment they said it would be with Jess. So needless to say, we were off to a rocky start. I wasn't feeling super welcome or super comfortable. However, once Jess started talking to me and we had a good conversation going, it was very nice. She was very warm and I was happy feeling I was in good hands. Overall, I was happy with my hair cut. I will be back to see Jess. A few notes about the salon. It was very warm (temperature wise) in there. I was sweating..eww. Also, it's very "swampscott-ish" - meaning the other clients walk around like they own the place and I wouldn't go in there and share "what you heard last night over dinner" because I guarantee someone in there knows someone you are talking about. That would be the only reason I wouldn't go back - which is a shame because I did like my hair, I just didn't necessarily love the environment which is not really the fault of the salon. I'm not sure how you would resolve that..but if you want a good cut I would recommend Jess.

Laura & Company was recommended to me by a co-worker after I complained about a 45 minute wait at…read moremy usual salon. She even brought in a card, and urged me to go; this was in the summer and I ignored her until another 45 minute wait turned me off for good at the old place. Spur of the moment, I wanted to get 4 to 5 inches taken off. My old hairdresser wouldn't cut that much off; she always said that I wouldn't like it. I called and made an appointment with Nicole. Upon arriving, 15 minutes early (I am always early- I can't help it), I was shocked that she took me right away. The man at the front desk (I can't remember his name- sorry!) and Nicole were awesome. They were so helpful and encouraging. Nicole did such a good job too- I've never gotten so many compliments, and I wish I'd gone with this style years ago! I went early afternoon on a weekday, and they had only a few customers. I did make an appointment, but it was pretty short notice. I would recommend (as with most places) making an appointment if you want to minimize your wait time and ensure that you can actually be worked on that day, but they did tell me that they love walk ins. I'm actually not sure if they take credit cards. I want to say no, but that's something I'm going to inquire about the next time I make an appointment. There are a lot of snooty, over-priced salons in downtown Gloucester. Places that don't value their client's time, and think that they know best about your hair or just don't care enough to help you make a decision. Laura & Company is the complete opposite. The atmosphere was very relaxed, and the people were very down to earth. I can't wait to go back for another hair appointment, and I hope everyone gives the salon a chance!
