Best Hair Salons In Merrimac

“I have been on the search, no, the hunt for a colorist and stylist since 2017. Someone who has technical skills, that were proficient with scissors, and clippers, who takes the time to fully understand what you are looking for, who has advanced understanding of the color wheel. Who doesn't try to talk you out of what you know you wanted for years. I have also been on the hunt for a salon that didn't charge ridiculous prices for mediocre work. By George, I think we found it!!!! ?
I came in with basic knowledge and understanding of exactly what I was looking for. An asymmetrical pixie LOB with an undercut, shaved left side is that all flows seamlessly to the right. I then provided photos of my hair styled as close as possible to what I wanted for my cut. I also showed 5 to 10 other photos I found online that are similar to what my vision was. Not only that but I was able to tell her that from the crown back I wanted the hair to fall backwards not to the side, I was able to tell her that I wanted the hair in the back to fall to the occipital bone. That I wanted a smooth sharp angle, with no disconnection. In regards to my color, when I made the appointment I said that I wanted a single solid color, probably staying dark. I knew that I didn't want to jump straight to Black in case I wanted to do other fun colors before going to that. From there we discussed pricing, I told her up front that I had $120 on me and that I could use a little from my card. I asked her how much would it cost to lighten, and then use a pulpriot cool tone purple. She told me that it would be expensive, that it would be a color correction. I then asked why it's a color correction if I have virgin hair. She explained to me that a color correction is simply going from darker to lighter. Not necessarily lifting box color as I had always believed it to be. More education, got to love it! She pulled out her swatches and we came to a gorgeous purple that wouldn't require any bleaching. Thus, keeping the price down significantly. So I immediately asked her what the pricing was if we were not doing basic Black. I was able to tell her that I like cool tone purples over warm tone purples, plums and burgundies. We made a game plan, we discussed pricing up front and agreed to $125.
During all parts of the process, she was friendly, talkative and focused on the job at hand.
The price was exactly as we discussed, and I now have an appointment 8 weeks out.
This was by far the best experience that I have had at a salon in a very very long time. I am more than happy with the results.“

“I am so grateful for Jess, Kate and the rest of the team! They are always so welcoming, genuine, and kind. Jess is an absolute hair magician and always delivers above and beyond! I highly recommend this salon and I’m so glad I found it!“

“I'm a relatively new customer, and I chose Amelia's because I thought the building looked cool. (I had had a family member cut my hair for years.) That may not seem like an ideal way to choose a hair salon, but it has not disappointed. Inside is a welcoming staff in a warm, relaxed atmosphere, and the stylists listen to what your needs are and aim to please. I'm very happy with my stylist who is both friendly and professional.“
