It was totally by accident how I discovered it -- it was a simple Google search -- but the blowout is definitely East Coast good. $55. Maybe this has to do with Rae, my stylist. She also just moved to Wilmington (from NJ) five weeks ago. She knows high maintenance women like me! I love her and will be coming back only to see her. Btw. It's a Oribe and R+Co salon, both of which I use.

Disappointed that this is the second time this has happen. I emailed three times with zero response

What do you mean expires, you got the money and I got nothing and was not warned of this policy. An absolute shame that someone spent their hard earned money for a gift for me only for a greedy salon to not care about their customers in the slightest! Very rude and told me it says 1 year and I should have used before that. Will never come here again!

I came in for caramel highlights, to blend into my brown hair. Rachel, the owner of the salon…read morecharged me $600 for a full highlight. Wow. I have lived in Los Angeles and San Diego for the past 8 years, receiving color correction treatments for bleached out ruined hair, highlights, and balayage at high end salons in La Jolla and Santa Barbara. The peak of what I have spent on my hair should not have been in Wilmington, NC, and for bad hair at that! Yes, I have long hair. I have NEVER been charged anything close to $600 and even if I was okay with that price, I am not okay with it for the hair that I left with. My hair is fried, looks nothing like the photo that I showed her, has a bad cut, and has bad color. There are streaks of platinum mixed with deep brown, leaving me with all shades of human hair on my head. When I called the salon after getting over the initial shock of the $600 charge, Rachel couldn't give me a good explanation for how that price came to be. She said she charges by the hour, then she said by the individual service "she had to charge extra for the money piece in front". Then, she told me that she had to provide color correction and that is why it was so expensive. I color my roots with Wella at home. There was no color correction needed. She gave me a full highlight service with toning and it ended up frying my hair and looking not at all subtle. I feel like crying, looking back at how my hair was just a couple of days prior to going in and paying $600 to someone for this "service" is such an insult. Pics below show my hair when I came in, and my hair now.

I am super picky about who cuts and colors my hair and she met every expectation I had going in. She was personable and super attentive to what I wanted, she asked a lot of questions to make sure it was clear and talked me through the process. She is so so nice and I am so happy I found her! I found her through Instagram and she is active on there about hair care, how to's, and just overall good people. I learn from her when I'm not even in the chair! Leah is another one I've gotten blowouts from and I am so so happy I met her along the way too! She is so bubbly and has such good skills at making my hair so full of life. I couldn't be happier to get another blowout from her for a treat yo self day - because, honestly, we all need them nowadays. She also cut my husbands hair and I absolutely love it. He was happy with the cut and the cost! Love love love Mane and couldn't recommend it enough.

Paying 400.00 then I went back to get it "fixed" and ended up with more over processed bleached ends and BLACK roots - I guess this was her version of ombré. The next day I received a text message saying I owed money for the 2 glasses of wine I drank while there for 2 hours getting my hair fixed!!!! I have NEVER been charged for wine at a salon. I wasn't going to post a review because I didn't want to be "rude" but figured I could save someone from else from fried hair and out of pocket 600.00 (I had to go somewhere else to get it fixed) Oh and also she charged me 25.00 for a consult fee a few days before my appointment which was NOT subtracted from my total. I mean who does that! Plastic surgeons don't even charge consult fees!!! Lol

Stay far away! I went in twice on a Saturday. The first time in, the young girl was testing colors…read moreon a customer, which is completely fine, and I looked around a bit, then told her I'd be back. There was a foundation I was interested in. I shopped around for about thirty minutes, then returned. I told her I was interested in the Jane Iredale foundation, and she tested the shade on me with a brush. Another customer came in while she was testing it, whom she appeared to know. She immediately left me, and tended to her. I gave her some time to return to me, and in the meantime, I attempted to try a different shade on my own, looked at lipstick shades, and blush. She continued to help this other woman. Needless to say, I left. I was going to purchase the foundation, a brush, and possibly more. But, clearly I was not as important as the other customer. I would not recommend this establishment unless their staff is trained in proper customer service. Clearly all of those products can be purchased elsewhere, or online.
