I had to get a new hairdresser because my past person of 15yrs is now 3 hrs away…read more Well...Matt J. might be a nice person (from reviews), I wouldn't know. Anyone with the 30+ years of experience he said, could deliberately destroy my hair color, from dark blonde to almost black and cut such odd layers in my hair (I must let grow before it can be repaired) all because he did not like the face mask that I wore. Yup, he sent me a text telling me so. So instead of manning up, and saying, "I do not like your face mask" and giving me an option to get out. He proceeded to be destructive. Then charge me for the damage. What a hypocrite. Never in my life had I had this experience that someone would take their political beliefs to do personal harm to me. A true professional would of said "sorry I cannot do your hair" Because....I don't like your face mask . I would of said okay then left. Please..please take heed of this review, he is NOT a nice person nor a professional to do hair.

Since they're good, it's hard to get in last-minute, but if you're like me, you can schedule every 5-6 weeks in advance, and keep from looking shaggy. I've been getting my hair cut here for the past two to three years, and have never had a poor or even middling cut - every time I get complements. Highest recommendation.

She is always willing to listen to me rant and makes conversation easy. Recently, I started going pink and she triple checks with me to make sure I'm getting exactly what I want. It is perfect every time, and she always disclaims fading, damage, etc. so I feel educated on what's happening. Technique has been my hands-down favorite salon I have been to in Bend and I highly recommend Tiffany!!

This review is for Rachel - I saw her 3 years ago when she was at a different salon…read more I only went to her a few times, but always got an amazing cut and color that grew out so well. I would tell her vaguely what I wanted (I'm the worst), and let her do her thing and was always blown away with the results. Her attention to detail is on point. I would walk home after the appointment and EVERY time got stopped on the street and was complimented by a stranger. Like, what?! Basically she makes you look effortlessly good and is a blast to talk to as she is super funny, smart and chill. I also trusted her with my hair days before my wedding and the color looked great the day of. So sad I moved away shortly after that, because she was "the one!" I even made an appointment when I was in Seattle recently and planned to drive down - just for her to do my hair, but then COVID happened and now I'm back on the East coast. Don't hesitate, just go to Rachel!

When it was all done and diffused and I looked in the mirror, I nearly cried tears of joy at how good it looked.

I appreciated the calm, beachy vibes of the studio, too!

My hair just keeps getting BETTER and BETTER each and every time I go back to Susan Harman for…read moreanother haircut! I recently went back to Susan in January for a cut and a partial highlight. I didn't think it would be possible - but I liked this haircut even more than the last one she gave me (which I absolutely ADORED!). She just did a trim, and didn't take too much off in terms of overall length, but she added in a little bit more longer layers this time - which I love. When getting ready for work in the morning, I have the option of blow drying out my hair to make it sleek and styled OR just scrunching it up from the bottom and letting it air dry - and it dries on my way to work just perfectly. And, the highlight color she put in is just enough - it's noticeable but not in your face obvious that I got my hair highlighted, and looks totally natural while at the same time, lightening everything up. Thank you so much Susan for the best haircuts and colors I've ever received! I'll be back for sure ... and can't wait until next time to see what magic Susan pulls off with her scissors and hair color next!

Susan was the first stylist I had in San Francisco that I felt actually understood how to make me…read morelook *good*... and by that I mean listen to what I want, and understand how to translate "I barely know what I'm talking about" into "amazing hair"... she was also the first stylist I EVER had in whose chair I could flop down and say "I dunno'... just fix it" and she would. I was perpetually thrilled with the work she did and shook my fists at the heavens when she moved down to SoCal. Now that she's in Bend, I recommend everyone go to her and Bend will quickly become the Milan of hair! Okay, seriously, though. She's not only amazing at the cool stuff ladies get to do with their hair, but she's pretty awesome at the super nitpicky men's haircuts as well. She is super quick to learn where booby traps are (i have this one spot that will shoot straight up if you cut it just a centimeter shorter than I tend to want it) and will remember them and work with them. Men, if you want an amazing haircut, go to Susan. Heterosexual ladies (or bisexual ladies in a relationship with a dude) if you want to treat your guy to an amazing cut, send him to Susan (and book one yourself... she'll do ya' both up REAL nice!)... really, anyone with hair, go to Susan.

What a cozy & cute salon! I contacted Tammy very last minute about Bridal Party spray tans and she…read morewas so kind and accommodating. We were offered beer, water & wine when we came in for our services- my S/O came and waited in the waiting area and was also offered a beer and a cozy couch to wait on (THAT'S customer service!) She got us in the day before the wedding and gave us four girls wonderful spray tans. We had previously gone elsewhere and they messed our spray tans up pretty badly & so being the day before the wedding we were very nervous about attempting a second spray tan. Tammy did an amazing job! I highly recommend any bridal parties to book through her for their aesthetic and tan needs! You won't regret it!

I was referred to the "color specialist" that would be great with the pixie cut and color. I received no color, he did not know how to do the color, or the cut. I did not realize this until well into the cut, and by the end he said he could not do the color because he had cut it too short. I did not realize he was a beginner and not a professional. I was extremely misinformed. He cut off ALL of my hair. And it Is ruined.
