I'm writing this because I'm still angry about the money I wasted going here and how messed up my hair was when I left. Let me start by saying I'm VERY PICKY about my hair and pickier about who does it. I've been to some of the best salons in L.A., shelling out in one visit enough to feed a family of five, and unfortunately that doesn’t translate into a great cut and color. In other words, I’ve had my hair F^*ked up by some of L.A.’s finest!
Since the reviews for Frenchy's were favorable (and since it was nearby and since there was street parking), I decided to go. I met with Lacy who was nice and calm and she seemed to understand what I wanted. But instead of highlights I got stripes and she made a few snips at the ends and charged me for a haircut. When I called a week later and asked to speak with her, the receptionist said “what is this regarding?” I thought: is she serious or stupid? and realized she was both so I simply said, “um, my hair.” She barked “Lacy can’t take you today.” I reiterated that I’d like to speak with her. I thought: “Who made her Lacy’s bouncer?” and when she asked me again what it was regarding, I said “Look, just have her call me.” Except that she never has.
I’ve never before said what I’m about to say: This place sucks!
Pros: convenient, street parking
Cons: where do I start?
