text: I really hate to rain on the parade here because honestly the people here are super fantastic So friendly and welcoming it makes me feel bad to say anything negativennBut I have to I read the reviews here and thought the place sounded great I did not read anything about blowouts which is what I went in for but decided to take a chance even though it did give me slight pause nnI walked into a salon that looked like it had been sprayed with all things punk I am used to sort of boutique salons so to see all of the things on the wall posters with crude sayings just jumbled messes of stuff and around the area where I was supposed to get my hair done really freaked me out But okay I was already there nnThey put me with Erica who is a really nice girl I told her what I wanted and we went to the back to get a wash That went okay so we went back to her chair which I think she shares as she does not have a station My first really big Oh man I need to go was when I realized the chair if not facing completely forward was out of view of the mirror That meant I could not see what was going on It is vital for me to be able to see what someone is doing the first time they blow out my hair I asked to be facing forward and she did that but she could not really manage that way based on the way my hair turned out nnI asked for a sleek flat smooth blowout with a little curl on the end and hair toward my face in the front It is a rare thing when I cannot get that to happen with a stylist but my hair turned out to be full of body with really crazy looking ends I told her we needed to stop because my hair was not going to get the way I wanted if we kept going She insisted that it would but I insisted she just flat iron it which I avoid like the plague if I can help it to keep from damaging my already dry colored hair Also she had a blow dryer without the attachment that keeps the grate over the mouth of the dryer from coming in contact with hair I saw that and knew I was not going to get a great blowout She also kept burning my head by keeping the mouth of the dryer too close and instead of combing my hair she ran some product through my hair and then started drying making my hair tangled and causing me pain when she tried to blow dry her way through the knots OUCH nnEvery time I motioned that she was burning my head or pulling my hair she just acted like I had not done anything No acknowledgment or question about what I was frantically gesturing for Yikes nnAnyway finally got my hair board straight with a flat iron and it looked good but I really did not want that I would say if you are just looking for a simple blow out to find someplace else As for color and cut I do not know and I do not really trust a place to do that to my hair if they cannot blow it out right nnYou may like this place the people are really just great but the decor is loud and distracting and the blow out was a failure
