Review content:
I noticed that a lot of the reviews on the site mention the cleanliness or style of the salon. The style of the place was not a huge consideration for me. It was not the cleanest place I'd ever been to, but it was not the dirtiest salon I'd been in either by a far stretch. So this review doesn't deal with those. My sole concern was whether I could get a decent haircut and color at ANY price. My hair is very light, thin, fine and straight. It bleaches from minimal sun exposure. The ends are damaged beyond repair due to health issues a couple years ago. When I went in, it had tiered layers of color from various clueless stylists and home attempts. I saw Jen, and she took as long as necessary to do a good job. She knew how to cut the ends of fine hair to make it look thicker. She colored my hair without using the bleach that would have finished the damaged parts off. She didn't shorten my hair more than I requested and she worked the botched choppy shorter layers of my hair that were leftover from a visit with an Edmond salon's stylist into the final look. I left with hair that looked HEALTHIER, and looked thick (which its not), somthing that never happens. The thickness effect was caused by the subtle color variations. It was as beautiful the next day and the day after. I can fix it myself in minutes. I asked for something professional but not short, that would not damage my hair further, that would even out the color, and, even without pictures to show the stylist, she delivered. Plus, now, my hair color looks natural, not dyed. The price is was cheaper than I've paid at Regis, Duncan Brothers, or any other salon in town. The result was much better. Jen's pride in her work was evident - she sees her clients' heads as her career portfolio and is meticulous. I will definitely be returning.
Pros: experienced and saavy stylist, great prices, individualized approach to choosing cut, no pressure to buy products
Cons: not big or flashy, floors not the cleanest, slightly overbooked when I arrived
