My hair is truly awful and I’m so so upset. She really just had absolutely no idea what she was doing and had no business working on my hair.
I walked in with beautiful, healthy, long, down to my waist, strawberry blonde hair with light gold roots. (Regular hair cuts, no heat styling, last color date was professional and over a year ago) I wanted a trim, layers, face framing layers, and long curtain bangs and I wanted icy blonde blended into my natural light gold hair . They made me come in for a consultation, put down a $100 deposit because it would take over 2 hours. Which, fine I get it. After 3.5 hours of being there, my hair was a hideous dark dark ash blonde, with strawberry pieces, grayish pieces and gold pieces bluntly chopped so much. She refused to put in any layers. While I appreciate the owner coming over after 3 hours to apologize, not charge me, and schedule me to fix it. But, I’d gladly pay to get my beautiful hair back. I ended up cancelling the second appointment after coming home, looking closely at it, and crying. I didn’t think it was that bad, then I looked closely and realized yea it’s that bad. The color is just so completely unflattering to my skin tone and really hideous in general. There are random angled pieces in the front with one weird piece of maybe a bang on one side. So deeply upset and disappointed and a waste of an entire Saturday. She was incredibly nice, but she should have asked for help much sooner and should know basic hair cut techniques. If your hair is important to you, be careful. I will not be coming back,...
Read moreI had visited studio b before and had an okay experience. I came in the 13th to get my ends cut and get balayage. I had showed the stylist a picture of what I wanted done, more of a caramel color. I personally don’t know the technique done for this style so I went along with what the stylist suggested. She had advised that it would take longer to do my whole head so due to time suggested I only do top of my hair. I went along with it she placed foils. The stylist itself was very nice and friendly but she ended up lighting my hair way more than I had liked but I was going to give the benefit of the doubt. I ended up paying 150 to get the top of my hair foiled and my ends cut but what upsets me is that in order to get the rest of my hair done I’d have to pay another 150 according to the front desk. So basically they wanted to charge me 300 in total to get a full foil when their website indicates that a full foil and cut start at 150... i got charged 150 for a partial. I had wanted a balayage style but honestly the parts of my hair that are lighter the color is all over the place. The ends are super light, it gets orange going up its not even at all. I’m going to have to get purple shampoo to see if I can even out the tones. Very...
Read moreIn Praise of Brittani Levesque~ When I moved to Garden City about 4 years ago I was absolutely terrified about whom I would find as my new hair stylist, having left my previous one whom I loved but was just too far away at this point. Every woman knows how important her hair stylist is and I have the misfortune to have been born with very curly, brittle almost kinky hair. Few people know how to make my hair soft and smooth and straight!!!! The most obvious thing to do was to try Studio B which is in the shopping center just minutes from my home. That is where I met Brittani. Let me start by saying how sweet she is and how accommodating. She has a great sense of humor and makes every visit a fun adventure. When you tell her NOT to cut too short, she doesn't. She listens to her customers and is always punctual. She is focused and patient and let me tell you what a fabulous stylist she is! I am just so lucky to have found her. I couldn't recommend her more highly. The entire staff if friendly and has won Best of Rhode Island West Bay for three consecutive years. What a combination= Brittani and Studio B. You...
