Elan thinks it's a great salon, but it is truly lacking in attention to detail across the board. Sure, they sell high-end product such as Kerastase (some of which can be bought at Target these days), but they are woefully behind the times! \r
First of all, the change room(s) lack even the most basic functional items. Not a box of kleeenex, nor a big, fluffy brush to brush away tiny hairs left on the face after a haircut, nor a trash can. Similarly, there were hooks on the back of the door for clothes, but they really need some hangers. I'd say the change room was most austere and unwelcoming. \r
Second of all, they are all hyped about just having started to offer balayage. This technique has been in use in better salons in major cities for over a decade, if not closer to15 years. Wake up Nashville - you need to be more in keeping with the times. \r
Also - this salon really needs to step up to the plate and provide disposable protective covers for arms of eyeglasses. No need to have people wrapping foil around the arms of their glasses and looking like something out of the 1950s. Here's an option - Google ""eyeglasscleansleeve dot com. \r
All in all, I'd say that Elan lacks much elan.
