text: When my favorite stylist Genevieve decided to take a sabbatical I was nearly in tears See I am kind of a perfectionist when it comes to my locks so I have serious trust issues But after a bit of research I decided I would see Deanne a stylist I would met at personal gatherings and who always seemed amazing Now it took a bit to get in because she was just returning from maternity leave AND she is awesome but boy was it worth the wait nnFirst I have crazy long hair after birthing two baby boys in two years And by crazy long I mean tomybooty long So there is that Next I color it purple but not too purple but still noticeably purple I am totally a stylists dream come true ha Most just try and rush to get me done even though I always mention my long hair during scheduling and I rarely get the special perks like a relaxing shampoo But Deanne says the heck with that nnDeanne did everything TOP NOTCH She took the time to check out my pictures and discuss my color She took the time to apply my color incredibly thoroughly and never once made me feel bad about how long my hair is Then came the shampoo I got the royal treatment literally She not only shampooedconditioned me up but I saw her apply a special serum during my DIVINE SCALP MASSAGE Then came my hand massage which was the best I have ever received at an Aveda salon and I have hit up a few in Phoenix nnWhen we got down to the cutting business she cut off just enough for me it was a solid inches She did not take the liberty of knowing what is best for me as some stylist do I hate that Then she gave me a REAL blowout not any of this pansy stuff and proceeded to dry cut my hair This was the missing link all along I did not even know it See I am a big hair kind of gal but I have semifine hair so with the layers I love I sometimes lose volume BUT DEANNE FREAKIN NAILED IT I have seriously never loved my haircut this much So if you like that feeling go see her
