I had just moved here from Illinois, and I was looking for a good salon that was close to the Mall. I heard many good reviews from this site and decided to give them a try. I was scheduled for a cut and color which was nothing huge; just a touch-up on my red color (I'm naturally a brunette) and some added layers and thinning (my hair has a lot of body and volume, which I have to thin out to prevent poofiness). The stylist was alright, but there were many times i felt like she was making too much ""small talk"". The color was fine, but I was rather surprised with the hair cut since I noticed she wasn't taking out much weight. I asked her why she wasn't using the thinning shears and she told me ""I don't use thinning shears, I'm just adding layers to get rid of the weight"". In the end, my hair style didn't look any different than what i came in the salon with. I will give them props for the color job; but $65 for the color and $48 for the cut (and that included the 20% mall employee discount) seems a lot for a ""touch-up"" job. I guess I'll have to keep looking...
Pros: Location, mall employee discount.
Cons: Costs too much for what you get.
