Back in December, after a very long and tiring week at work, I decided to treat myself to a blow out about an hour before I was to attend a Christmas party. My husband gets his hair cut by Shanassy at Island Styles, so I decided to ""walk in"" to see if by chance, anyone was available for a blow out. August ,with his signature mohawk and smile, greeted me and within minutes I was relaxing with a shampoo that was better than some massages I have had. I walked out an awesome blow out and something I did not expect...a peaceful, calm, soothed feeling.
Because of his endearing spirit and great blow out, I decided to come back soon after the blow out for a cut. I had been going to a salon downtown for years and had gotten tired of the time it takes to drive and park, just to get my hair done. My cut went great and once again I left feeling like I had a session of yoga or meditation.
After commenting on a coworker's gorgeous highlights and asking who her stylist was,(August Alderman, of course), I decided to give highlights another shot. I soon found out that August is as wonderful at highlights as he is at cutting. Even my mother, who has never been fond of my hair when it is highlighted commented ""I like the way he did your highlights!""
August is a genius with hair and has such a warm, caring spirit. I told the owner of the salon that I felt like I have finally met my hair stylist ""soul mate' when I met August!
Pros: Calming and Soothing + He does good hair!
