Terrible experience with Carlos. I didn’t get the results I asked for, and he repeatedly left me to work on other clients, leaving me waiting for long periods.
My scalp started burning from the color treatment because it had been on too long. I let him know and instead of him or his assistant quickly addressing the issue, another stylist stepped in to rinse it out. This was unacceptable and showed a complete lack of care or professionalism.
When it was time to blow dry, instead of using a round brush and making me feel like a human, he and his assistant roughly ran their hands all over my scalp and through my hair with the heat on high to get it done quickly, it was liken to someone washing a dog.

Read moreCarlos is an absolute gem!! I started seeing him after another stylist almost ruined my hair. As busy as he is, he worked me in the very next day, on a Saturday. i was so grateful and have now been with him for almost 2 years.

So glad i...

In the chair I loved the cut, but when I checked my rear view mirror before leaving I was blown away at how natural and beautiful the highlight/lowlight combination was. He made my hair look like shimmering silk. There is typically a wait and his work worth it. Note: Jamie assisted with rinse, had a fun energy and was clearly well-educated on the color /support and gave an excellent scalp massage during the conditioning. Overall Ponce has an atmosphere of knowledgeable professionals who enjoy their work-...
