text: I have been going to a genius stylist for about years now but she is been traveling so much recently that I was forced to see someone new for my last appointment I have driven past Etch at Kierland Commons dozens of times and have recently had a couple of friends try them out with fairly decent results I prefer to have my hair colored and cut by the same person and they were happy to accommodate However I believe that they normally schedule a separate stylist colorist assistant etc My appointment was with Janine who had her work cut out for her when I went in my hair was about inches longer than it needed to be and my roots had started taking over I was a little nervous to have my long hair cut drastically short by someone I had not been to before but she did a fantastic job and did so with very little instructionguidance The color was perfect and I could not have asked for a better cut I really enjoyed the salon It is clean edgy and appears to have all of the latest and greatest hair styling toys The entire experience ran me which is more than i typically pay but I think it is a competitive price for the area The salon is open late and on weekends which is very convenient I will definitely return nI should also mention that another friend of mine Fuzzy called that because of his fuzzy hair who has had his hair cut by the same barber since he was years old was recently given an extremehairmakeover by Ryan Ryan not only proved his genius status by seriously updating his look but was very friendly along the way and patiently showed Fuzzy how to keep up his style after he left the salon Great experiences allaround
