I was at Pheasant Courtyard in Alamo having lunch one day, and saw this little salon called Celebration Salon. Last minute, I decided to walk in and ask for a "basic" hair color. There were only two people working. One apparently drunk in the middle of the day, and the other old lady using language only heard late night, on a street corner. I cant believe the conversation in that place, while I am sitting in the chair with color on my hair! They began to talk about another place in Alamo called Salon Prive. I have always believed, when a person speaks so badly about another business or person, while they are seemingly drunk, the truth has to be the opposite of what they say. By the way...my hair color turned out to be a disaster. Six weeks later, I thought I'd at minimum take a look at this Salon Prive they spoke so poorly of, out of curiosity. I walked in, was greeted by the most professional receptionist, and was amazed at how beautiful this place was. I asked if there were a stylist I could speak to about my hair color, which needed to be fixed from my previous salon experience, at the other place. The receptionist came back with the owner of the salon. After a lengthy consult, I decided to give this salon a try. All I can say is, "Thank you to Celebration Salon for unknowingly giving the wonderful referral to Salon Prive!" I have since gotten a wonderful facial, a custom spray tan, and the most gorgeous hair color I have ever had! The salon was busy, had great hair products, professional and friendly staff. What more could a girl ask for? Not to mention again, beautifully decorated, and a private suite too! Never once did I hear anyone in Salon Prive say a bad thing about another stylist or salon. Simply not enough space to write about my wonderful experience. I have found my new spot for hair and skin services. Salon Prive is the best ever!
