Well, I grew up on long island and always felt that I would have to travel into the city to get my hair done. Admittedly, I have what I would consider to be difficult, very curly hair! I've often left salons not only hating my cut but feeling worse about my hair...
This was the exact opposite of what happened at Thomas Cole! First of all, the receptionist was lovely and helpful on the phone and in person. The salon is an intimate, adorable place that is warm and welcoming. My cutter Linda seemed genuinely excited to cut my curly hair, and she sat and listened to everything I had to say about it with so much patience! Finally, she gave me a beautiful cut and showed me how to style it both curly and straight. They had great products that are preservative and chemical free (which is very important to me) but they didn't push them on me at all. At the end, the owner, Thomas, came over to introduce himself. I was literally beaming when I left! I will never travel back into the city for a cut again!!
