I came across this studios online and booked an appointment based on the rave reviews. I've struggled to find a decent hair salon for years and have resorted to only cutting my hair once every year or two.
Let me start with saying WOW. I've never had a dry cut before. With typical cuts I'd ask for a certain length and style, they'd cut wet and of course not take into account that my hair is a curly and when dry it would shrink up another inch or two and would be way shorter than I wanted.
I've never booked my next hair appointment on my way out of the salon!! I had such a great experience. My hair dresser Shameen was absolutely fabulous. A joy to sit and chat with and she cut my hair perfect. I can't wait to see her in 3 months âşď¸
The owner Arous and her sister were so fun to chat with as well. They made me feel like an old friend. I went in there after having a so so day and left feeling so good! The over all vibe of the salon is exactly what I needed after a long day. Bonus was the fantastic glass of wine đ
Can't say enough about this place! Look forward to all my future hair needs....
   Read moreI have been working with Shameem for over 20 years and have followed her to wherever she goes. I am so happy with my haircut and highlights, traveling two hours to see her. It is so worth it! I may not get my hair done as often but I find with her new technique of dry cutting, I can go longer between haircuts and it still looks great. I was skeptical at first with dry cutting but now I will never go back- my hair is now so healthy, full and manageable. She spends quality time with you and going there feels like a spa experience. The salon is beautiful, clean, bright and everyone is so friendly. I always look forward to the cappuccino Shameem makes me while my highlites are setting!! I highly recommend Arous Studio- you won't be disappointed. I now bring my mom who is 84 years old to get her hair done and we make a day...
   Read moreShameen has been doing my hair for 15+ years! Always a brilliant âhair-cutterâ and colorist (and my hair is extremely thick-not easy), I followed her to Arous Studio where sheâs learned an entirely new technique-âdry cutting â. She has mastered it in the 3.5 years that sheâs been there. Iâve had short hair since I was sixteen, and have had my hair cut many times in many cities where I lived (Montreal and Boston, a a few in NYC). She is hands down the most gifted person I have ever visited. Since the pandemic, I grew my hair out, so sheâs now working with a very different head of hair than in the past and sheâs killing it! Gifted, kind, and a great listener (always listens to what I am wanting), I feel very lucky to be able to have my hair...
