I have been growing out my hair and haven't gotten it cut in some time. I needed to get it cleaned up a bit for a family reunion that would include professional photographs. The salon was amazing--they booked me the same week I called. I had left a message outside of business hours explaining my situation. An 8:00 AM hair appointment might sound tough, but there is parking right in front of the salon, and it's free until 9! I was able to be seen by the eponymous hairdresser, who struck me as somewhat reserved but kind. We discussed my long-term goals (length, possible coloring later) and my preferred hair maintenance routine. (I shampoo and condition 3-4 times a week, use no products, or only air dry.) I felt good about the haircut while in the seat, and I looked nice at the end. Matthew explained that he had cut my hair so that it would lie nicely with some volume with no real effort. However, at home I didn't find a good way to comb or fluff my hair. So the front cleaned up nicely, but I think the overall haircut complicated my post-shower or morning "styling." Nonetheless, the professionalism, cleanliness, convenient location, and willingness to squeeze me in last minute? I recommend giving this salon a shot.

Shari is WONDERFUL colorist! She is able to beautifully highlight my hair to camouflage all the gray! My husband, who doesn't usually notice when I have a haircut, said "wow, you look so young!" Thank you Shari!!!
