I bought the male grooming experience thinking that it would be a good opportunity to try a new salon since moving to Vegas. When I arrived, I was shown around and offered a drink which was nice.
I was introduced to my Stylist (Grethel) whom was very nice. However she didn't seem to listen to what I wanted her to do with my hair. I asked for some edgy layers around the top and sides so that it would grow out nicely and described that I wanted to keep my bangs quite heavy so that I could style it to one side.
She suggested that I wanted my hair to be more 'modern'.
By the end, she had cut my bangs much shorter than I had asked her to and the layers were nothing special.
I have quite fine hair, which I normally style with American Crew Defining Paste to give it a matte finish (I told her this) but she used a styling gel which she should know doesn't work for my hair type...she dried the gel in to my hair (I thought this might be a new way I could style my hair) and then swept it back in some sort of 'fashion' and asked me if I liked it swept back...I told her no and she brought it forward in to some sort of 90s boy band center parting. MODERN? I think not!!
The paraffin hand dip was a nice addition to the visit...but as the main reason I went there was to get my hair styled, I'm not overly pleased with the fact that my 'stylist' didn't listen to what I actually wanted from her.
All in all, it COULD have been a good experience but since my stylist thought that 'modern' was something from the mid 1990's, it made the experience rather unpleasant because now I have a hair style that I am dissatisfied with.
