I went to this "City Search user favorite" salon for a consultation because I wanted to lighten my dark merlot-tinted auburn hair. Ali was very nice, told me the price of a haircut would be $75, and that he would make an appointment to cut my hair and lighten it to a "warm auburn shade". I came to his salon for the appointment with Ali. He was punctual and polite. He spent a couple of hours putting different solutions into my hair, and at the end of 3 1/2 hours said he "wouldn't have time for a haircut". After drying my hair, here's what I got: 1.) no haircut, 2.) a bill for $325 just for the color correction, and 3.) an orange, carrot top head. This was not 'warm auburn' as promised, but bright orange. The bill was twice as much as I think was reasonable, and the price was never quoted up front and his $75 haircut price seemed reasonable, so I was appalled when he handed me the color correction bill for such an exorbanant amount (with tip the bill came to $375). And no haircut. Worse yet, I went to Vidal Sassoon the very next day and had to spend another $125 putting a brunette tint on it to tone down the orange copper carrot color this "expert" left me with. Net/net: the overcharge was bad, but his end product was even worse because it was not what he promised and not what I requested, and he cost me even more money and time to fix his not good work. His service was polite and courteous, but who cares? I got ripped off, and the hair looked lousy and cost over $100 to fix. Whoever votes for "Best Salon" on this site needs to sober up and go experience the real talent elsewhere.
Pros: My hair didn't fall out
Cons: Total waste of time (over 3 hours) and lots of money ($375)
