UPDATE: Just look as his ridiculous responses to my review: Yelp does not allow me to use the…read morewords I would use to describe this kind of behavior: As you can see from the screenshot, in our private conversations, he said it was a balayage for $260. And I tipped $20 for $280. Yet when I complained that it felt like a ripoff bacuse the work was so poor, he invented this new story that: (1) I received a "retouch on my roots" that I should have paid extra for (2) in a perfect world I should pay EXTRA (WHAT?) for bringing my own dye in (because Arctic Fox is so controversial??!?) (3) that "the area is expensive" (4) that apparently i need an ongoing longterm relationship to have a dye job that doesn't leave me feeling ripped off (5) that "we always have free dialog" so that "you can alawys get alterations to your service complimentary of course" -- this is the biggest sticking point. Oh really? You have a dialog for complimentary alterations? When I messaged my complaint directly on Yelp, there was no response. The same inbox that booked my appointments suddenly went silent. Why was I not offered free alterations if I don't like my service? BECUASE THAT'S A STORY YOU TELL ONLY ON YELP. THAT OPTION WAS NEVER GIVEN TO ME. This is a man who tells one story to the public, and another in private. Personally, I call that LYING and DISHONEST. ---- He then said "i DID WHAT WAS NEEDED" to explain a bad job that was unsatisfying. So was MICROWAVING FISH AND EATING IT IN FRONT OF ME needed? Because most of the work wasn't even done by you, it was done by a subordinate. Anyone with 1/2 a brain should be able to see the level of ego just dripping off his response. Now go look at the other people with unsatisfied balayages. They were smart enough to take pictures and you can see how terrible some of them are. I'm tempted to go dig up my pictures. ORIGINAL REVIEW: tbh i won't be returning after that $280 dye job + cut where you used the scissor to make like 2 cuts, and where i had visible roots walking out of the place, where it was obvious y'all just wanted me to go because you closed up afterward and were rushing me out. Yeah... as friendly as y'all were ... Visible roots?!?!? No discount for bringing my own dye? Literally every time a friend has come to my house i've had less roots than the one time i paid So what was the point of paying? There was none. I had a wedding emergency and a friend who stole hair products from me. I had no choice but to find SOMEBODY that day. Everyone loves my hair, but i feel ripped the f off. P.S. If you update your response to my review again, i WILL go dig up the pictures and attach them.

So I first off want to clarify that I was fortunate enough to win their Instagram balayage…read moregiveaway. But I swear that despite that, my review is 100% completely honest!! So when I went in, I already had blonde hair but I hadn't gotten it done since Thanksgiving so my naturally dark hair was peeking through in my roots. My blonde was also very warm and a little bit lackluster (just because it had been months since I last got it done!). So I knew going in that I really wanted to brighten my hair and give it a little refresh. I wanted a little more blonde and was hoping to add some more dimension. One of the owners, Melanie, did my hair. Starting off, I felt totally at home and comfortable. She grabbed me a Diet Coke and spoke with me about my hair and asked what I was looking for. I wanted to be realistic and I wanted to ensure that my hair would last until graduation (I graduate college in seven weeks). She was quick and efficient! We chatted about all sorts of things and honestly the three hours went by so fast!! The head massage/wash was so wonderful and relaxing. I've been wanting to go here for years (been following the account since freshman year) and I'm so glad I finally got the chance! My hair is stunning and Melanie is truly a star. I am so confident and just really appreciated the whole process. Grateful for this and super happy with my final look!

I was a client here for years and worked with two different stylists. Unfortunately, both…read moreexperiences were disappointing and ultimately damaging to my hair. The first stylist showed little concern for hair health. My hair became severely damaged, and the highlights were poorly done--harsh, with straight lines and clearly visible foil marks. Even after going back for a touch-up, the work never improved. I switched to a second stylist for balayage, hoping for better results. On my most recent visit, I came in only for a toner and specifically asked for a golden honey blonde. Instead, I left with a dark, cool brown color that was the complete opposite of what I requested. Before I even left the salon, the stylist and other staff were trying to wash the color out, which made it clear it was wrong. The stylist knew I was unhappy, but I had a work event that night and had no real option but to leave. I called the salon the next day to have it fixed and was told there was no availability for two weeks. When I finally came back in, the stylist didn't even dry my hair--so there was no way to properly see whether the color had been corrected. Overall, this salon is overpriced, stressful, and inconsistent. Given the cost, I expected professionalism, attention to detail, and respect for client requests. I did not receive that and would not recommend this salon.

Dina's knowledge of hair textures and products gave life back to my hair - my natural colors were vibrant and the texture turned smooth and silky. I did not need to sacrifice length to achieve this, just standard touch-ups imo. I got everything that I wanted: fuller hair, invisible layers, face framing curtain bangs. I can wear my hair up, low-pony, high-pony - my hair moves with ease and I've never felt cuter! Everything was executed with precision and to perfection. All the while Dina explained her process to me and kept me in the loop, giving me every opportunity to to provide my input so we could work together. I will be working with Dina again, 100%!
