My experience at Salon Ablaze far exceeded my expectations. I had a rare day off of work so I messaged the salon in hopes of scheduling a same day appointment which I figured was a long shot. To my surprise, they were able to get me in! I arrived to the salon appx 15 minutes early and my stylist, Kayla, immediately took me back to the chair. According to their Facebook account, Kayla was a brand new stylist fresh out of cosmetology school which admittedly made me nervous but as a nurse I know how important learning opportunities are and figured she couldnt mess my hair up any more than my emotionally fueled Sally Beauty Store makeovers already had. The owner, Tara, stayed within an arms length the entire time and offered helpful hints and opinions while never undermining her or making me doubt the stylist's ability. She allowed her the autonomy to sculpt her creation. That level of teaching is something you dont see every day and is a testament to the amazing atmosphere at the salon. I have very thick hair. I have had stylists literally complain to me about how thick my hair is. I've even been turned down by a stylist for taking too much time to do and for having the audacity to have thick hair. I had quit getting my hair done professionally for a time due to the anxiety of what their reaction to my hair would be. Never once, in the 5 hours I was in the chair, felt like I was a burden or an inconvenience to them.

At this point the salon was already technically closed and again, we had been there 5 hours. I've literally had someone insist I go home with a wet head because they had already spent too much time on me. Best experience I have ever had at a salon and definitely...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI just donāt know where to start! From the very beginning all of these ladies have been amazing. I went for a consult and Savannah listened to me when I said I wanted some fun peek a boo coloring and that I wasnāt afraid of seeing it, I just didnāt want to go a full head of bold. When I went in for the appointment Iām pretty sure she was as excited as I was, maybe more. After a couple of hours there I left feeling like I was already part of the family and I will never go anywhere else. My picture does not do this justice but this was hands down the best experience Iāve had getting my my hair done. Savannah, you are amazing and I look forward to many more visits where you can do what you want. š Everyone seems amazing so if you choose this salon (which you should) you can pick any person there. Please make sure to leave room in Savannahās...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreTo high priced for cuts and style. . The sad thing is that Tara talks to much when doing hair She DID NOT LISTEN what I wanted bcuz she was to busy running off the mouth and joking around with all the other girls The reason I said the prices is too high is becuz their not that good. Well maybe I should not include Noone but Tara bcuz she doesn't no what she's doing by not focusing on her client . She cut my hair soooo short that it was easy for her to do bcuz she was jealous of my long blonde hair. Lower your prices Tara n do a better job. Sorry but the...
