I like this salon a lot, but don’t recommend going to Eunice! I went to see her last week asking for a significant change in cut + a touch up to my balayage. She modeled what the below-chin-level layers I asked for would look like by lifting up the top layer of my hair and suggested a full balayage so the layers would look consistent throughout, and I agreed.

In the end she seemed to just trim the hair and the left the layers where they started, a good few inches below my shoulders. When I pointed out that I’d asked for layers starting closer to my chin, she said she’d “add a few shorter pieces” after styling but didn’t really do much to fix it or seem to care. Once I got home I also saw that the front was noticeably uneven. I ended up getting this fixed by another stylist because I was getting engagement photos done the same week, which was a frustrating added cost. The lady who fixed it also pointed out the hair was uneven without me mentioning it.

Even after getting the cut fixed, I don't love the color job. For some reason one half of my hair is a lot lighter than the other half, and where the two halves come together looks blocky and uneven. Considering that she charged me for full balayage, I would have appreciated fuller coverage. Overall for the price point I will try to find someone more detail oriented next time.

Needed a trim real bad and decided to try a salon that just opened up nearby. Glad I did cause the stylist was super friendly and actually listened to what I wanted. She asked how much to take off and showed me the length before cutting which I appreciated. The place was clean and had a chill vibe. They offered me tea while I waited and the music was not too loud. The haircut came out exactly how I pictured it and she even gave me tips on how to keep it styled better at home. Only thing was the wait was about 20 minutes even with an appointment but that seems normal now. The price was reasonable and she didn’t rush through the cut like some places do. I left feeling fresh and happy. I’ll be going back for sure. If you’re picky with your hair like I am this place is worth checking out. They really take their time and care about the result not just rushing people in and out. I finally found a spot I can trust to...

I wanted to do a big cut—from mid-back to a bob—so I knew I needed to come in to get it done professionally. Jesse was so careful and methodical about it and did a phenomenal job. He asked me lots of questions to understand what I was looking for, he explained exactly what he was doing as he did it (taking off weight in the bangs, creating some lightness, evening it out). He took the time needed to get it right, even though it was late, and checked in with me throughout to make sure it was looking how I wanted it to. He was also just an excellent conversationalist and I really enjoyed talking with him during the haircut. I...
