Review content:
I walked in one lazy saturday morning for my appointment to spruce up my lackluster locks. I had dyed my long, extremely thick hair on my own about a month ago, with less than desirable results--my faded, patchy red hair was, frankly, pathetic. After reading a glowing review of Charis, I was delighted that she was to be my hair stylist--I had confidence that she could not only fix my inch-long roots of dark brown, but recolor my entire head (no easy project!). I explained sheepishly that it took four boxes of dye to color it myself, but she was unshaken, and ready to dive in. After showing her a picture of what I had in mind for my unruly curls, she made sure she knew exaccttttly what I wanted, to the very glint of highlight, for my own hair. I sat down infront of the enormous mirror and felt confident that Charis would do me no wrong. She quickly mixed two colors, one for darker spots, another for lighter. She knew exactly what she was doing, and calmly proceeded to cover every inch of my head with gloopy dye. What could have felt like hours (since it DID take hours to cover my many layers of tresses) flew by, as we chatted away...not only was she an expert stylist, but her charming conversation (and that of the other stylists as well) made it a truly pleasurable experience! After an hour of processing time, to make sure every strand received its due, Paula, another fantastic stylist with an edgy, plantinum cut, rinsed out the dye and told me how fantastic it looked. She wasn't kidding. When I looked in the mirror, I couldn't beleive how perfect the color was! It was JUST what I had envisioned. Charis really did an outstanding job. But what really made it incredible was her styling! She did an amazing job flat ironing, curling the ends under to create a picture-perfect blowdyed look. Never before have I been so satisfied with my look coming out of a salon. Thanks to the enire staff at My Bella! I will be returning; you have earned a new customer!
Pros: several stylists work together so that waiting time is cut down
Cons: it would be nice if they offered drinks, though they have them on request
