I have been other salons listed on City Search's top 5, and this salon is the only one that blew me away! Much to my surprise, I called Gustavo's around 11am and got an appointment on the same day for color, highlights, cut &style... I was nervous as I walked into his beautiful salon and thought that I would be greeted with snooty looks, and have to deal with a bigheaded stylist... I could never have been more wrong! Everyone in this salon is so down to earth, and truly genuine.
When I got there I had this idea to go blonde because I wanted to change my look completely. Gustavo looked at my complexion, my dark curly hair, and said, "I don't think that's a good idea." Thank God that I took his advice! Sure, he could have taken my money and just done what I had asked of him, but he was more considerate to what would look good on me and didn't want me to be a slave to my hair. Patricia is a master cutter! It has been a month since she cut my hair, and I still get compliments on it! I know this may sound weird, but my hair is actually longer now than when I first went in!
They were all very attentive to my needs. They worried about the time I had left on my car, and put more quarters in it for me; they even brought me this amazing panini for lunch. I love this place, and I will definitely come back... this time I will talk Gustavo into going just a little lighter. lol
Pros: Feels like they are your personal hairdressers!
Cons: A bit pricey, but well worth it!
