    I went to the SOS Salon the Floating Tank. I'm all about new experiences and wanted to try the sensory deprivation water tank. They have a first time deal for new clients - $40 for an hour! I went in for my session and they explained how everything worked. If you are interested in some relaxation and meditation this may be for you. You shower, go in the tank for an hour, then shower again afterwards. The water is supersaturated with magnesium so you just lay back and easily float. For me personally, I did about 10 minutes of that and was not feeling it. Even with earplugs they provide, some water was getting in my ears, it was hard for me to relax my neck and I got some of the salty water in my eyes! Eek! I was a hot mess in short. They have a spray clean water inside so if you do get some of the salt water in your eyes you can spray it out. After 10 minutes though, I couldn't rest my mind and was making a mental list of things I needed to get done & was sad I couldn't write them down. Ha! It was truly an interesting experience but it's not really for me. Your hair will get completely drenched so either be prepared for that or schedule a blow out right after. You're in a salon after all and that's exactly what I did! The blowout was just $20 for a basic one and they shampooed all the salt out of my hair. This salon is really gorgeous, friendly staff and if float therapy is something you want to try, I'd have no reservations giving it a go!

    Oh my! What can I say about Lola & Hope. They are so good at what they do. They are such hard workers and have good techniques and styles. They both have the best customer service skills and are willing to help anyone in need, including walk-in's. I've been seeing Lola for about 3yrs now, I've seen Hope a few times as well. My hair means the world to me, im very particular and picky about who touches it. Especially when it comes to dye and cuts. The products that are used at SOS are natural and of high star quality. My hair feels and looks healthy and shines. I've always gotten compliments on the styles. Prices are fair and plastic is accepted. I'm allowed to bring my puppy in, since she is well trained & behaves well with others. So if you have the time, and need a great hair style or color this weekend. Or perhaps you need to just soak your soreness/ aches away in their Pods. Then you have to contact these ladies to get in and enjoy the experience and treatment you deserve. Your welcome.

    I took my daughter here on a whim. They were able to accommodate our schedule and did a great job cutting and styling!

    If Hope is behind, she washes my hair and puts a deep conditioner in my hair to stay in for a few minutes at no extra cost.

    I cannot say enough good things about Lira Hair Salon. I came in after a disastrous visit to a…read moreso‑called "blonde specialist" who completely ruined my hair while trying to take me from brunette to blonde. My hair was damaged, uneven, and honestly I was scared to try again. Lira changed everything. She not only helped me achieve the blonde I originally wanted, but she did it in a way that protected my hair and brought it back to life. My color looks beautiful, natural, and exactly how I envisioned it. Even better--my hair is actually growing back and feeling healthy again. Lira is truly a master of her craft. She listens, she cares, and she knows exactly what she's doing. If you're thinking about going blonde or need someone to fix a color gone wrong, she's the one you want in your corner. Absolutely worth every visit.

    First I will start with what was good…read more 1. The dye job ended up beautiful. I came in with pretty unclear instructions and reference photos and both the stylist and the owner were able to figure out what fit my needs. This seems to be a huge strength here. 2. They were able to fit me in last minute. What was bad 1. The total time listed online was 1.45 hours, the service ended up taking 2.45 hours. I have been to many salons and never had my hair take that long, especially when I was getting all over color and a blowout (no haircut). Perhaps this was due to me booking last minute. However, the website booking made it look wide open and I think it is the responsibility of the salon to accurately represent their booking capability. I would not have booked with them had I known what experience was to follow. 2. The salon overall seemed overbooked and people were bouncing around. Three different people worked on my hair. Personally, I really didn't like this set up. I like to build a relationship with my stylist and this hectic atmosphere was not synonymous with that 3. The blowout I had was so uncomfortable. The rollers were tangled up in my hair and I could feel it ripping out as the stylist took them out. I have never have a blowout be so painful. My hair had so many split ends after I looked in the mirror at home. 4. My hair fell the moment I stepped outside. Granted it was a windy day, but my hair doesn't typically fall that fast. I think this may have been due to the stylist rushing at the end. On one hand I'm glad she did because I had been sitting alone for quite some time, but on the other hand I paid for essentially nothing. My old stylist back home (moved cross country) had no problem giving me a blowout that lasted at least a few hours. Even on windy days. 5. At one point the owner took my stylist in the back and seemed to be scolding her. This is never something a new client wants to see. I immediately felt anxious that something had gone wrong with my hair color. It ended up great but tbh experience was awkward and handled strangely in my opinion. 6. Finally. The price came out to $260 for all over color and a blowout. I wouldn't mind this price if it wasn't for the lackluster experience. Hair salons are charging luxury prices without offering luxury experiences. The pricing structure is also strange. They charge $60 extra for toner but I have never had a color job that didn't need toner to look good. It feels strange to not include it all together. The toner charge was added after which was a surprise because toner has always been included in the price. To be clear, the website did ask if I wanted to add toner for $60. I thought that was for someone coming in looking just to tone and not add more color. Perhaps this was my mistake but I found the whole pricing structure strange. A few other things to note: water was offered but never given and they only accept cash/zelle/venmo tips. Overall this salon was not a fit for me. A lot of this is subjective preference but I think it's important that people understand what environment they are paying for when they sign up to spend hundreds. That being said, the color was beautiful and I am grateful for that.

I usually see Emad for my cut, color, and blowout, and he is SO kind and incredibly talented. He's truly the best hairstylist I've ever been to. My blowouts last for days, which is why I always book with him before trips. It saves me from worrying about styling my hair or packing my Dyson. I've also referred several friends, and they are just as obsessed with Emad and the team as I am. Everyone I've encountered at the salon has been so professional and kind. I also wanted to add, in response to a Yelp review mentioned below, that I've personally never encountered a language barrier with any of the staff. But if you do, tools like Google Translate on your phone can make communication easy. You really can't go wrong with this place!

He had…read morea clear vision of what he thought would look great for me, which I really appreciated because I was ready for a change but wasn't sure what to do. I love the vibrant red color he created and my shorter cut has so much bounce and frames my face perfectly. I'm so happy with the result! I'm thrilled I found my new salon in my new city. Jay is fantastic too. Emad created/mixed the hair color and Jay applied it, and washed my hair and got me ready for the haircut. She is so nice and I really enjoyed our conversation. Beautiful and spacious salon. Welcoming atmosphere and positive vibes.
