I got a cut and partial foil there and I am impressed with both Jenn's personable attitude and great job done on my hair. She listened to what I was looking for, she took her time and was very thorough with the cut and color. This salon is far away from where I live but after seeing what a thorough job she did on my hair I am willing to make the drive to come see her!!

She was incredibly supportive of the idea and worked with me to get the right color that I was looking for She also gave great recommendations for the proper products to maintain the hair coloring, as well as keeping my hair healthy. Our session went for 7hours and I never once felt uncomfortable. I highly recommend going to Reina for any hairstyling!

Im from a small town and hoped to find a hairstylist that would not disappoint. I googled, read…read morereviews, and I knew pricing was going to be alot. So looking for a stylist/hair salon already expecting to pay a lot, I spent two days really researching. Going to the salon itself, it's very nice. Everyone was friendly, smiling offering drinks like water, tea, and coffee. I'm an introvert so I'm closed off and shy and tend to observe until I am confident and comfortable. The salon was very inviting, it made it easy for me to approach. Pros: Lilly squeezed me into her schedule on short notice(: She seemed really into making sure she did a good job, talking me through what she was doing. Taking care not to fry my hair and informing me a few times that because of how dark my hair is, I would need to bleach my hair another few times to achieve the light color I would like... this I do know, but with sitting for 40-50 minutes, 15-20 mins under the hair dryer I had hoped for more of a lighter color. Cons: My hair looks chocolate brown. Not what I wanted. I've had my hair bleached before and had gotten a much lighter color close to a gold so the chocolate brown is disappointing me. When layering my hair I asked her if she could do a "V" in the back for my layered hair, I don't think she understood or heard me?... the layers I got aren't the layers I wanted, I expected more than just one layer?... though I also did not show her reference photos, so that's on me. Not her. The layers are a little more blunt than blended and I honestly feel like I may just need to see another hairstylist who can fix this for me... She did try and make conversation but her conversation was definitely close ended. Again, I'm quiet until I get comfortable but i definitely did not feel like she wanted to hold a conversation with me even though she made many attempts. I believe the words "she tried" sums up my experience... I paid $250 for this result.... I'm just let down.

As part of my ongoing quest for perfect soft shiny hair, I visited Minx Designs on a blustery…read morespring day for a Brazilian Blowout. It's important, I have discovered, to get the brand-name treatment. Some off-brand keratin treatments tend to wash out quickly, and it's too long and hot of a process to go through for temporarily straight hair. It's also important, I have learned, to find a stylist who can execute it properly. I have tried to do the Brazilian Blowout on myself, but my hair is much longer and thicker than my patience. Third in importance is getting it done in a beautiful environment, while sipping on sparkling water and chatting about fashion, books, home decor and life with an incredibly interesting and warm person -- who also happens to be great with your hair, even if hers is naturally straight. Lani delivered on all points and more. As others have mentioned, her jewelbox of a salon is simply gorgeous, and the Queen Anne location is peaceful and convenient (easy street parking and close to a bus line). I arrived about 20 minutes early but Lani and her sweet dog, Stella, welcomed me in, and we got started on the 2+ hour procedure after a brief consultation. I did not know this, but Brazilian Blowouts can be adjusted depending on effect desired. The new Brazilian Blowout formula is also less stinky than it was in the past. There is a chemical scent that's unavoidable, but they've managed to tweak the formula so that it's more or less masked while leaving a lingering flowery smell that doesn't get in the way. Lani also tells me that Brazilian Blowout also offers a treatment for split ends, which a lot of people appreciate when they're trying to grow out a short cut. Lani did an an excellent job filling me in on the latest in Brazilian Blowout news, answering my questions and making me feel very comfortable in the chair. This is as she was applying her super-meticulous eye -- and touch -- to my out of control long hair. I couldn't be happier with it, and the long hot hours flew by. A sophisticated urban salon with a friendly and fun ambiance; Minx Designs receives my enthusiastic 5-star review and personal referral.

So apparently a haircut I got took an hour and 40 minutes, and I was banned from the entire salon…read morebecause of it? I wanted to experiment with a hairstyle but I figured if it was taking too long I'd have been told. I genuinely had no idea that it was taking too long, if I had I'd have paid more or cut my losses. At no point was I demanding or anything and honestly I don't remember it taking as long as Rachel Gowin accused me of, which was an hour and 40 minutes. I had gone on my lunch break so I definitely don't remember taking a 2+ hour lunch. And if it was an issue I would have paid extra for any extra time. But I literally had no idea. Babalouise was a recommendation from a coworker, who originally recommended Diane Halcome but because of her limited availability recommended Rachel. So it is INCREDIBLY embarrassing to have been banned from the entire salon for something that seems like a misunderstanding stemming from a lack of communication. And even moreso, that since it was a personal recommendation, why would I have knowingly done something to get banned? It just doesn't make sense and I'm very embarrassed by this entire situation. I'm really just confused because if there was a way for me to make it right either now or at the time of my haircut I would have, but no opportunity was ever given to me. Nothing like this has ever happened to me anywhere else in all my life, and this entire situation is more confusing than anything.

This will be one of the most memorable haircuts of my life because I was so amazed at how many…read morethings I told my stylist that she didn't listen to or just ignored. She was very personable and asked me lots of questions about myself but nothing I had gone to the salon for was accomplished. I booked the appointment online and wrote a memo with it stating I wanted to keep the hair cut off in a braid (very important to me) and wanted face framing bangs. I figured anything the stylist wasn't comfortable doing or needed to be charged extra for, she would let me know so that I could either make an appointment elsewhere or add on the service. I arrived with washed hair so it would be easy to put the ends into a tight braid but it seemed to be a non issue for the stylist. She said something about putting it in a, "loosey goosey braid you can mess with" and I wasn't too happy with that but I told myself I could probably fix it as long something like a braid was started. What I got, well, I'll attach a picture so you can see. I almost burst into tears. No way I can make anything resembling a braid from it unfortunately. On to the face framing bangs. I told her last time I got bangs my previous stylist had to pull far from the back in order for the bangs to not separate into sections bc my forehead was prone to get oily. She nodded. Didn't pull very much hair forward but okay maybe she'd start w gradual sections. I tell her she can put the blade up to my face since I wanted the bangs in a blunt arc that curved it's way into a chin length layer around my jaw and had a pic of exactly what I wanted (which I've had before) and indicated the curve with my finger. She said she only did that with blunt straight across bangs and that people had to get haircuts that she felt worked with their body and face shape otherwise they should rethink having her cut their hair. At no point did she tell me she didn't feel like she couldn't do anything I had communicated or shown to her and I was already thirty minutes into the haircut. I had written a memo with the appointment and brought pictures. She didn't explain to me why or that she was not confident in her abilities or tell me that she didn't want to do what I had communicated to her until I felt it was too late to stop. Kind stylist overall but couldn't braid or do face framing bangs. Since that's what I went in for and communicated expectations for prior to my appointment, two stars seems equally kind.
