I hate to give someone a bad review but I feel like people deserve to be warned. I came here because I found Kail online and she is a self proclaimed blonde specialist. I told her I don't like a yellow or golden blonde and she said it would be "icy" blonde. I ended up with yellow blonde. I tried using multiple different purple shampoos to help it. Finally, after a week I texted Kail asking if I could come back for a toner.
She texted back asking what purple shampoo I was using then I never heard from her again. I gave her the benefit of the doubt that maybe she forgot. I texted her again the next day asking if I could come in on the next Thursday for the toner. No response. Today (Sunday) I see her post on her Instagram story for $15 off for a 10:30am appointment on Thursday. She clearly has availability on Thursday.
I asked for a simple toner or even a recommendation on a purple shampoo that can help. She clearly doesn't stand by her work and now I am stuck with yellow hair. Don't go to this "blonde specialist". I only gave 3 stars because despite hiring an unprofessional stylist, the salon seemed since.

Starla did my hair beautifully the first service I had for $225. Then when I returned for the second time she did my hair but it was brassy and I wasn't happy leaving the salon. Come to find out she didn't tone me. Who sends their client home without a toner? She claims she was sticking to my $225 "budget" which was what she charged me for the first service. I was appalled when she finally returned my call and said she would fix my yellow brassy mess for an extra $65!
She said she didn't tone for free! I have never been treated like this before. I also gave her a very generous tip! BEWARE of this salon and Starla you have lost a standing client by not fixing my hair. I will NEVER refer anyone to this salon.

Beautiful Salon. Excellent Service. Keri is Fantastic and gained a new client in me. For your eyebrow needs, go see Cecilia! She is also Terrific! Even the receptionist (whom, I'm so sorry, I didn't catch her name, I will next time) is friendly and personable. Thank You Medusa!
