In choosing this salon, I went on the basis of my aunts recommendation and also because they also have another location here in NYC. So I thought coming here would be a safe bet while I was vacationing. However, it turned out to be a huge disappointment. The girl was very professional and nice, but she did a poor job on my hair. The salon was empty which automatically said something to me, but I didn't listen to my gut. Although the girl was quick to put the foils in my hair which was great, she didn't leave the color in long enough, so there was hardly any return color on my hair. Literally, I was in and out in one hour and my hair is LONG. Anyone who colors or highlights their hair, knows that an hour isn't long enough for a good job. They charged $90 for these highlightes and they should have been $40 or she should have offered to put more color throughout. Very disappointing and I don't recommend this salon at all. However, it is Great Barrington and I shouldn't expect a NYC job when I 'm in the mountains visiting. But, since David Gavin has a fairly decent reputation here in NYC, perhaps it was silly of to think the same would hold true at their salon in Great Barrington.
Pros: Quick appointment, nice staff
Cons: Not enough color for the cost, color faded very quickly.
