I first called the salon after randomly looking for a new place to get my hair done. I found Salon Dacota on here and read good reviews. I called and was excited about my appointment after talking to Jan on the phone. She was very helpful on my decision of what services I needed and even told me that I would recieve 25% off my first visit. I had no idea what stylist I wanted but she gave me options & I opted to choose Valla, whom she said does her hair as well. When I arrived, Jan was VERY friendly, made me GREAT coffee, brought me a magazine so I could choose the style and color I would like. She even hung up my jacket for me! I was given a form to fill out about my past styles, which made me feel that my stylist really cared about me and what I wanted. \r
When Valla came to greet me, she walked up to me, shook my hand & then sat down next to me. I was so excited to have chosen her because she was so trendy & well manicured. I instantly felt comfortable with her and the salons vibe. Not only did she ask me how I most liked my hair, but I felt that she was taking it to heart. We chose a color that I was not totally sure about but trusted her eye for it when she said it would look great for my skin tone. She then took me back to the most relaxing shampoo area that I have ever experienced and gave me what felt like a 10 minute shampoo followed by a free wax treatment for my hands (thats like $10 at nail places!). As she was doing my cut & style she explained each product and told me how to use them. I was shocked to find out that even at home I could almost duplicate the look! \r
Now to the minus one..the whole time I was sitting in her chair..as a mother of 2 living in Ballwin I was greatly discerned to hear the man beside her complaining about Ballwin/West County and children. But once again the salon pleased me & now I'll make my appts on Wed morning when there is only a positive vibe . I recommend that you choose Valla-you will love her! \r
