I came here thanks to the recommendations from yelp and someone from an expat group. I wasn't…read morelooking for somewhere where the staff spoke English, so this was convenient for me. It's central, relatively inexpensive (26 euros for a student cut, style and blowdry) and service is quite fast.
There was only one hairdresser working, I presume the owner, and luckily for me there was no one else being served when I entered the shop. I was thus immediately allowed to sit down, described what I wanted "pas trop courts, ajouter un peu de volume" etc, and I sat back and relaxed while my hair was washed. I love that part, it's almost like a head massage. I then moved to the mirror in an upright position, and the hair dresser asked me whether I wanted it layered (un dégradé). I agreed, and she checked whether what she was about to cut was too much, and I insisted it was fine as my hair is full of split ends and could do with a bit more body. She also checked where I wanted my parting, I asked for her expert opinion and she put it slightly to the right of centre, where she suggested it fell naturally.
The cut was quick but professional. We talked a little bit about where I am from, what I study at univerrsity and I skimmed through an Elle magazine which was on the desk. It look less than one hour and I was very happy with the result, and indeed the price and location. I will be back if I ever feel my hair is a bit depressed again.
I left the salon feeling like a little princess, bought a pretty new top and made a lovely healthy salad to celebrate.
