Upon making the appointment over the phone, I asked for two things: 1) a particular stylist, "Tomas", and 2) price of haircut. I was told that the stylist I asked for, although given rave reviews online, was not the best stylist in the salon and was actually, "only good with the computer." After much coaxing on my part, I was given an appointment with Tomas. I, then, asked for the price of the haircut and was told $50. Sounds reasonable for a haircut from a reputable stylist.
When I came into the salon for my appointment, I was told Tomas would not be available to cut my hair because "he is not here and will be back in one hour." The owner, Elias, proceeded to walk me to an available stylist, and at this point, I decided I may as well get my hair cut. The stylist was professional and good, but I have to agree with a past reviewer that it was a 10 minute cut, followed by 30 minutes of styling.
When paying, Elias charged me $55, $5 more than I was quoted over the phone!! I hated that I had to argue for my price point, but I did, and eventually the price was reduced.
My haircut was decent... however, not worth $50 for the highly unpleasant overall experience. I will not return to Elias salon.
Pros: decent haircut
Cons: charged more than quoted over phone, stylist change
