I wasn't prepared for post menapause hair dryout...my once beautiful hair was turning to straw. To make matters worse, I have an unhealthy obsession with split-ends and will start picking and cutting when I get them. I was doing solo after losing my steady stylist who had highlighted my hair last Christmas. Frustrated and unwilling to find another sylist I colored my hair and tried to deal with my resultant drying/split ends with over the counter products and a devise from hell that I found on the internet called ""Splitender!"" Don't ever use one! My first clue should have been the picture of the guy who invented it to deal with his own long hair and split ends. When the product arrived it had his picture on the over with short hair!! The product from hell damaged my hair cuticle and I was a frizzy, obsessed mess when I heard about Paragon from two women at work. I decided to research and landed on this page. When I read the review below mine about Amanda I knew she was ""my girl."" ""Understanding.... patient....listens!"" These were qualities I needed to get through the explaining I was going to be doing. Let me tell you...she is everything and more that the below review praised her for. She assured me I wasn't the worst case she'd seen and went about moisterizing my hair, assuring me how my hair was just ""drinking it on."" She polished, she shaped, she turned my once out of shaped, split mess into the best cut I have ever had (profile picture a year old.) I don't know how she did it, but my former highlights came shining through and I left with my hair as soft and shiney as when I was a youngun. She's very kind, very talented in her craft.
