My daughter's haircut with Annie was rushed and poorly executed. Despite booking a 30-minute kids'…read moresession, Annie finished in just 20 minutes. She appeared to be in a hurry throughout and didn't check if the bangs were even until I specifically asked. I requested layers, but she only added them to the front near the bangs - the rest of the hair remained completely blunt. When I mentioned the ends looked chunky, she didn't address the concern adequately. Ironically, at checkout, Annie suggested I book the 45-minute tween session next time because my daughter "has a lot of hair" - yet she only used 20 minutes of our 30-minute appointment. This logic doesn't make sense. The result is a chunky, straight-across cut that I could have done at home. I've already had to book an appointment at another salon to fix the uneven, unfinished look. If you're looking for a thorough, detailed cut with proper layering and finishing, I'd recommend looking elsewhere. We won't be returning.

Not to mention, she is just a very cool and nice human being, so the vibes while she works her magic are immaculate.

I came in with a clear inspiration photo of a rich brunette with soft, blended caramel highlights…read more Before we even started, I explained that I understood my hair would not turn out exactly like the inspiration photo because my hair is not virgin hair. I've previously colored it with Redken Shades EQ and Cover Fusion on my roots, so I knew my results would vary. I was never expecting an exact replica. I also understand that the inspiration photo was taken in completely different lighting than the photos of my result, and I know lighting can dramatically change how hair color appears. I took all of that into consideration. Even with those differences, I still feel that what I received wasn't simply a variation of the inspiration--it was a completely different color direction. I wasn't expecting perfection, but I did expect my hair to be moving toward the look I had requested. Instead, the final result was much lighter, warmer, and more orange than the rich brunette with soft, neutral caramel dimension I had asked for. The inspiration photo and my final result weren't just slightly different--they looked like two entirely different color goals. My hair also felt noticeably drier afterward, to the point that I ended up cutting about four inches off the ends. I called the salon and scheduled a correction because I genuinely wanted to work together to get closer to the look I originally requested. Unfortunately, the correction appointment was even more disappointing than the original service. Instead of listening to my concerns, the stylist immediately argued with me and insisted that this was exactly what I had asked for. He told me my hair was already "caramel enough" and refused to do lowlights because he felt my hair looked fine the way it was. He then tossed several color swatches onto my lap and told me to pick a color. When I asked if they were semi-permanent, he told me the salon didn't carry semi-permanent color, only a gloss and permanent color. The swatches he gave me were all dark browns, which wasn't what I was asking for, and when I questioned them, he responded that I knew color theory well enough to know what my hair would turn out like. He also told me my ends were compromised and that there wasn't much he could do for me. Before this service, my hair was healthy enough that I wasn't concerned about the ends. Leaving that appointment feeling like I was being blamed for the condition of my hair after a highlighting service was incredibly upsetting. The most disappointing part wasn't just the color--it was the way I was treated. I expected a professional conversation and a collaborative effort to find a solution. Instead, I felt dismissed, argued with, and made to feel like my concerns weren't valid. By that point, I no longer trusted him to work on my hair, so I left without any correction. I paid $350 for this service and walked away with hair I'm unhappy with, hair that feels significantly drier than before, and no resolution

It seemed that most artists either had outrageous prices, wouldn't travel, or did either hair or makeup but not both. I found Emilie on Yelp and luckily she responded back quickly letting me know she was available and giving me her pricing. Pricing for services and travel was reasonable as compared to others I had spoken with. She asked for any photos of styles I wanted. I sent a photo for hair, and just a vague description for makeup. Anyway, when she came to our suite, she brought all of her equipment with her, including power strips, which was great, as our hotel was a bit challenged with outlets. Anyway, I really like how my hair and makeup came out. She had me check a mirror periodically to ensure that I was happy. She also gave me a small kit so I could retouch my lips throughout the evening. Another thing is that she was very professional and the craziness of our hotel suite didn't interrupt her focus. She kept a friendly chatter with everyone throughout. My husband, friends, family, and my dog were all in and out of the hotel suite throughout the process. All in all, I am very happy with Emilie, and would recommend her for your hair and makeup needs.
