    Beautiful updo by Kristen!

    I absolutely adore Samantha, Taylor and Kristen. This salon is probably the best in the Tampa Bay Area!

    me trying my absolute hardest to try to show the color this was right on the day of going to the salon so no washes or anything
    Christina V.

    I've never posted a bad review before, but I feel as if this was completely an unfair experience to me. I asked for the hair in the third photo my stylist said she can do my hair that color but darker. I had told her that months ago I had my hair black box dyed and it was very very faded so that's why I thought it was fine to get my hair dyed again. When she told me darker I wasn't expecting it to be literally camouflaged into my hair. It's to the point where I can't even see the color one bit. Also in the photos of my hair that is me trying my absolute hardest to have it show up on camera, I had to take multiple photos just so I can see the glimpse of color in a photo. I think it's ridiculous that I can't even see the color at all and this was all for the price tag of 290 including tip. The only time you can even see the purple in my hair is in blinding direct sunlight. When i'm not in direct sunlight it looks completely black. She told me after the appointment about how I can come in 6 weeks for a retouch to do roots and color it more purple for the price of 125. I really don't think it's fair that i have to pay another 125 ontop of the 290 I paid to get the color I actually wanted. The stylist also told me that the color would look like the 4th photo's color. Which it doesn't. I then called the salon the next day asking for a redo since it was completely different than what I asked done. They then told me how I was told that my hair was going to be this way.... and that she told me to come in for a retouch so they said they're not going to redo my hair for free the way I asked the first time... They said how a manager decided that the employee was correct and I was in the wrong over the phone when she didn't even see my hair at all, which i think would be important in the decision making to actually witness what my hair looks like.. They as well told me that they "care" about my hair health and that they aren't going to do my hair again to get it to the color I asked for the first time. They didn't care so much about my hair health when I was handing them the money to do it though. They as well told me over the phone how the stylist showed me a photo of how my hair would look and yes she did that is what the 4th photo is,, and as you can see my hair looks a completely different color Don't go here if you want vibrant color. I asked her for black with the purple streaks in the 3rd photo.

    Had one of the worst cuts ever. They act like it's no big deal. It cost me 62 bucks. Pictures below. You judge for yourself......they have someone else that is going to trim it up some. Fingers crossed but I'm scared to go back. Update......the manager was very nice and the woman who tried to fix my hair. She made it not look so blunt and tried to make it look better. They also gave me a credit on my Acct. Thank you for trying to make it right. But in the end bangs are bangs and hard to take away. They just have to grow.

    So glad I found a new salon after being in limbo for so long. I was looking for a professional staff that could work with two years of Covid at home mistakes. Tristan is my new stylist and on our first appointment he got the damaged hair back to a "begin again" point from which to get the hair healthy. Our second appointment got me back to the color I love, very natural blonde. He took his time with the many foils and really got the color just perfect. So thankful for that! As for the salon itself, it's immaculate, beautifully decorated, relaxing spa day - what more could I ask for!

    Ask for Samantha for a fresh cut!

    Very expensive and the cut was terrible! The stylist was inexperienced and did not cut my hair like I wanted.

    Love this place. I have used 2 different ladies and they both did a great job…read more Kara does a wonderful job at making my hair look great. She's very personable and pleasant to talk with. The salon is always clean. They also offer manicure and pedicures.

    Do not go to Kara here for haircuts. She doesn't know what she's doing. I asked for a simple U…read moreshaped trim for my medium length hair and she told me that it isn't actually possible to cut hair like that which is crazy. I've had a hairstylist do that kind of curved perimeter cut on collarbone length hair. Also what about the countless YouTube tutorials and pictures of girls that have that. Just say you don't know how to do that if you don't know. She tried and failed bad. The two sides are also uneven. One is longer than the other and when I pointed it out she just said no. She made me feel like a crazy person asking for what I was but I talked with my previous stylist from my hometown and she explained what she should have done and how to ask the right questions to make sure the hairstylist actually knows what they are doing. Her technique alone was bad she didn't even make sure my hair was straight and smooth using a comb to trim. She didn't section vertically for the trim either and I ik I have thick enough hair that needs that. Every other hairstylist I've tried has done that. Bad experience all around and waste of money. Now my hair is messed up and getting it fixed would take too much off the length.
