    Young-Hee M.

    Most welcome of discovery by chance when there weren't any parking spaces in front of Meissner sewing and the only spot left was in front of Ideal Cuts! I drove there after work to pick up my sewing machine from completion of a tune up. I had been wanting to schedule a haircut or a digital perm for over one month already so decided to take a chance at this new place for a walk in appointment. There wasn't one guest inside and I was welcomed to enter and take a seat. Van greeted me with a warm smile and asked what I would like to have done. I originally mentioned a simple hair cut with layers to get more volume for my over grown long thin straggly hair however decided to trust Van with a body wave after spending some time with her. She spoke with Jenny and decided there was enough time scheduled to take care of my bodywave so I was very grateful. Both mentioned because of the heavy rain there weren't too many walk ins that afternoon. A hair stylist is a personal choice and there needs to be trust involved when it comes to getting a completely new look. I found Van to be very gentle, attentive, sweet, kind, friendly and most of all professional with her character and style. There is a calming energy about her that is most welcome after spending the day working and needing to feel relaxed and comfortable. My hair was so thin and over grown too long and although I normally get a digital perm which is healthier for the scalp I decided to have a regular old fashioned bodywave this time. Every 2-3 years I like to take a break from curling my hair and it had been about 2 and a half years since my last digital perm. I was amazed at how comfortable I was with Van since we just met for the first time as we talked about many things and shared our stories together. I could have stayed there just to continue getting to know her better and share more stories about our lives with one another. The business became very busy about half an hour after I began my process. With just Jenny and Van working alone the energy of Ideal Cuts could have become mayhem however the both of them remained calm and warm with assisting the guests and answering of the phones in a professional and friendly manner. There were about 7 other guests who were taken care of while I was waiting in between for the solutions to be timed and completed. 3 young boys, 3 men and 1 lady. I was amazed and very impressed at the calmness and friendliness of energy both Van and Jenny showed by never rushing their guests and taking their time with each one to make sure they were each satisfied and happy with their hair cuts. I am surely going to be a return guest at Ideal Cuts and I am also going to recommend my hubby, sisters, friends and other family members if anyone asks where they can go for a haircut/style and highly recommend this place!

    Julie cut my son and I and did a great job. I don't normally go to new hair shops but this one gets my vote. Julie does great at fades.

    Got my hair trimmed by Jenny. She provided super service. She washed my hair, styled it and added sassiness!

    I absolutely hate writing negative reviews. If you look at my review history, you'll see that I…read morealmost always leave positive feedback. It takes something truly exceptional for me to give a one-star rating, but this experience earned it. As a first-time customer, I was immediately given a very sales-heavy introduction and pressured to sign up for their membership club before I had even received a haircut. That was off-putting, but I decided to give them a chance. Unfortunately, the haircut itself was disappointing. I would honestly compare the quality to a budget chain salon, and my wife ended up fixing parts of it when I got home. Normally, I would have simply decided not to return and moved on. However, the bigger issue came afterward. When you book online, they keep your credit card on file and apparently schedule follow-up appointments automatically. I was never aware that another appointment had been booked, and when I didn't show up, I was charged 100% of the haircut cost. Being charged the full service amount for an appointment I didn't knowingly schedule is, in my opinion, an extremely questionable business practice. At the very least, customers should be clearly informed and required to actively confirm future appointments before being charged for missing them. To their credit, when I called and explained the situation, they did refund the charge. I appreciate that they made it right in the end. However, between the aggressive membership sales pitch, the poor haircut, and the surprise appointment charge, I can't recommend this business and won't be returning. I would strongly encourage potential customers to read the fine print and pay close attention to any future appointments that may be scheduled after your visit.

Kenneth messaged me quickly and was very up front about what he could offer and for what price. Rooted is in the Folsom hills and right in the downtown area along Lake Natoma and the American River. Every time I venture out Folsom way there is something new to see, but this little area still has the same "feel" as when I was a kid - Cute, Quaint, Small-Town. Since they have only been in this location a few months they don't have signage up yet but you can't miss it, it's a darling little cottage with a red stone brick path leading to inviting walk up and entry. I felt comfortable right away. Kenneth was up front ringing out another client but made sure to greet me as soon as I entered, which says a lot in my book. He showed me to his room, which was super cozy; the salon chair was comfy; LOVED the wash station, Kenneth was awesome; very personable, we chatted it up while he washed, did a deep conditioning treatment, (can I get that hair drier to go pls?) lol, Brazilian blow out and some touch up with the flat iron so I could get home to flat iron the rest (I do that myself). Even without the flat iron it looked fantastic! My hair felt super clean and well hydrated, not dried out at ALL. When I got home to finish the flat iron it was nice n soft n felt fabulous. Loved it! Thanks so much Kenneth! I look forward to my next visit!
