So, I really needed a haircut, and since I can't get one in Michigan (thanks Covid 19) I decided to take a trip to Toledo since their salons are open. I spent a fair amount of time researching, calling and putting time into finding a place that would suit my needs. I found Reve, and made an appointment for a Friday evening with Linsday.
I didn't want or need anything fancy, just a nice shampoo, cut and something to make me look and feel better. Boy, am I glad I found this place. It's located in a popular district off Mainstreet in Toledo. If you park in the back, there's tons of free parking and is a lot easier to get in and out than the street parking.
Walking in, the place is HUGE. like 3 floors with an elevator huge. Beautifully decorated and swanky with all kinds of stuff going on here. Who ever owns/runs this place did an amazing job of making it feel and look wonderful.
Because of the virus, I was required to fill out an online health form and have my temperature taken upon entry, and wear a face mask. I was told this upfront and was ok with it. I also got lots of text reminders of my appointment time and a confirmation reply was requested, which I did. The salon definitely communicates!
I was sent to the elevator on the third floor where Lindsay was waiting for me. I sat at a table with a chair and waited to be called. The salon is huge anyway, but the upstairs was beautiful and had so much room to move around in. lots of exposed brick, wood floors, tons of fixtures throughout.
Lindsay sat me down and asked what I wanted done. I told her and she said that I could really use a deep conditioning treatment. I've had them done before and my hair always feels better. The treatment was expensive, more than I usually spend, but after having it, I understand why.
We went to the shampoo area and she used most of the deep conditioning treatment. She sent me home with the rest to use in 2 weeks. My hair LOVED IT. Its by Kerastase which is supposed to be a really good brand and only sold at approved salons.
They are not styling hair here now, but I was extremely happy to go here and get my hair done. It was totally worth the money that I spent, and would tell anyone to go here even if its only once or twice a year. I didn't feel pressured to do anything I wasn't comfortable with and my stylist really listened to my needs.
I would totally go here again and am glad I found this place. Worth every penny. read more
