I used to see Marissa deLory at Juut a couple of years ago & when she left I had a hard time trying to find her, the salon wouldn't give me her info. However I found her & thank GOD. I've been trying out friends' reccomendations while trying to find her which means my hair has looked awful for about a year. Marissa is a cutting specialist(she doesnt do color)and believe me, she knows how to cut. I have thick coarse asain hair that looks soft & light after she's done cutting. I really like that she tells me what will & won't work.While I think Marissa's great, I wasn't so impressed with Atelier. The first time I came in this summer, the first person I saw whas a receptionist with unkept braids and a short skirt. She mumbled hi while reapplying lipstick. How irritating she couldn't be bothered to check me in when I walked in but she sat & stared me down during the entire haircut. As unnerving as that experience was,I decided to give the salon another chance because Marissa is so talented. This time I had color done before my cut. The girl who did my color was nice enough but when I was processing, the whole salon had to listen to her complain to her other client about her boyfriend, another client( what would she say about me?!) & about what she was doing that weekend. She's supposed to be a senior level stylist but she sounded like she was still in high school.
Pros: Marissa deLory's haircuts and full line of Aveda
Cons: unattentive recptionists and immature staff
