    My light pink SILK TIP NAILS with a SHELLAC COLOR and top coat ! Ask for this they look beautifully natural!
    Juanita M.

    When I was 13 years old I was in need of a good hairstylist because I was going to a special event. It was around the time that I was learning to actually care about my hair, I was becoming a young lady with high standards. I had gone to a few places and hadn't returned because the quality of the job they did for me was simply not good. I stumbled upon a quiet humble yet chic looking salon that intrigued me. I walked in and was greeted with open arms by a women who would become my hairstylist for life who goes by the name carina. The first time I came to shear image I didn't expect such friendly service, I was with my mother and carina offered us water coffee and cheesecake that her husband made. That's when I knew that something awesome was going to happen that day. I needed my eyebrows waxed and a haircut, carina does an amazing job waxing eyebrows. My eyebrows were very messed up from going to previous places, but she completely fixed my ratchet looking brows. The haircut was also very amazing I absolutely loved how she left my bangs they were and are so beautiful . Something.else I want whoever is reading this review to know is that I honestly believe my hair has become healthier and longer by coming to get my hair colored and trimmed by carina. When I turned 16 I colored my virgin hair with a box dye. Why oh why did I do that?! My hair having never been color treated only grabbed the color on the roots. The box dye didn't even turn the color I desired it turned orange. I came to carina the day after I botched my hair and she literally did hair surgery on me. She completely fixed my hair and did an amazing job she made my hair ombré with the roots being a beautiful caramel color. I was more than happy that day ! I'm now 18 years old and I have consistently been coming to carina every 6 months to either get a color or a trim I honestly don't know what I would have done as a teenage girl without carina in my life doing my hair and fixing my hair disasters. If you want to have a good friend as well as a hairstylist come visit shear image get your hair done by carina!!! And of course your nails done by Kenny. I got my nails done by Kenny and I did not know silk nails with a shellac color could look so beautiful thank you Kenny I am so glad I can keep my nails HEALTHY while still adding length !

    I'll start with a couple pros. The first time I went to this salon I got a pedicure by Gia & it was nice, no complaints. I also had Gia thread my eyebrows, no complaints there either. The second time I went in I had the gentleman who sits at the nail station do a French manicure on my real nails with gel polish. He did a very nice job, the end result was exactly what I was hoping for. But one of my nails chipped after only 2 days, and the next day 2 more chipped. Although I was frustrated that my expensive manicure didn't even last a week, I was willing to give this salon another shot. On my 3rd (and will be my final visit) I wanted to get tips put on with acrylic powder. The same gentleman was running late so his sister took a break from her hair client to get me started. She was telling me I should do the silk nails instead of acrylic because it was healthier, looked more natural & is supposed to be more durable than the acrylic. I said okay, but wish I hadn't. The guy who I had the appointment with eventually came in & took over but when his next appointment came in he had his sister take over my nails again. They definitely were overbooked & things felt chaotic. My nails looked gross. They were visibly lumpy, the edges around the cuticle weren't smooth. She was rushing while painting my nails so she could back to the lady getting her hair done. Since she was rushing she kept messing up & would have to paint another layer to cover it up which resulted in rippled paint on 3 of the nails. I don't think these looked natural in any shape or form. They were so bulky & had a terrible shape. And last but not least, one of the nails broke only 8 days after having them done. While I was getting my nails done I overheard them encouraging 2 other customers to do the silk nails instead of acrylic which leads me to think they either don't know how to do acrylic or have ulterior motives for pushing the silk on everyone. Since this is a hair & nail salon I was thinking maybe they tried to avoid doing acrylic due to the strong smell. One of the customers walked out because she only wanted acrylic but they pretty much refused to do anything but silk. So in conclusion... The pedicure & eyebrow threading by Gia was great. But I would never recommend going here for anything else (nail related) ***I can't speak for the hair services. However, I would have been mad if I was the lady getting her hair done that had to keep waiting because the lady was leaving to do my nails****

    Beautiful shellac pedicure!

    I've been going to Shear Image for awhile now, because my initial experiences haven't changed: reliable, professional, and quality work. All types of businesses should follow their lead.

    This is how I left this salon this afternoon..

    This is my #1 place to recommend for any hair services and products. The receptionists are always…read moreso inviting, kind and helpful and I am always so happy to stop by or receive a full service for my hair. Jenni G. Is a master stylist and I have known her for over a decade. She makes my day every time I see her and all the staff are incredibly friendly and refreshing to be around! Jenni is skilled in working with different hair types and textures and I have also recommended and shared services with my friends and family and they are always so pleased. I regularly get highlight or balayage, toners and hair cuts and am always so happy with the results. This is a high quality salon with high end products and it is worth the price. You get what you pay for and even when I was making less money, I always found a way to come here to get my hair done, as it is totally an investment in myself and no matter what was happening in life, I could have confidence in knowing I had help to have my hair looking and feeling great. I always get compliments on my hair and color, thanks to Jenni and the amazing products at Willo Aveda! They also have an app that makes booking or checking pricing so fast and easy and a referral bonus or free botanical hair mask for new clients.

He suggested a stylist after asking me questions so that he would know how best to help me. He suggested I text Liz and she would get back to me. I texted Liz. No response. I texted Liz, no response.

I have really long fine hair, and it was pretty dry and damaged at the ends because I usually only get a cut about twice a year. Luckily, Alex was able to fit me in the next day. He'not like any hair stylist I've been to before. He was very inviting from the moment I walked in despite me being about 15 minutes late (I called ahead). He even gave me a soft, friendly double handshake when he introduced himself. Then he asked me what I had in mind for my hair. Showing sincere interest in knowing what I saw for my hair, unlike other hair stylists that may do what they want or think is best. He gave great input too and recommended a blunt cut for my fine hair, which turned out wonderfully by the way! When it came to styling time, I asked him to surprise me. I was intrigued by his blow-dry technique with the round brush, it added a nice curl to my hair, and I've never seen it done like that before. When he had me open my eyes for the final reveal, I felt like a contestant on a makeover show haha. My hair looked like it was straight out of a shampoo/conditioner commercial -- so light feeling and shiny. I would recommend going to Alex not only for his artistic hair skills but also because there was no the awkward conversation during the haircut which I usually dread, with Alex, it felt like I was talking to an old friend and the time went by so fast! It's apparent that he loves what he does and he takes pride in his work. I plan on revisiting him in a few months for a trim, which I know my hair will be happy about since I wouldn't usually go back so soon.
