I ended up having my hair cut to within 2 inches of my scalp, let the color grow out (the cuts were good!) and finally gave up on the place when I was charged $26 for a blow out which I specifically declined. I refused to pay. Who needs a blow out on 2" worth of hair? Anyway, lesson learned. Unfortunately, I haven't had a really good haircut in over a year, no matter where I've gone.
I have had my hair done at Dimensions Hair, had a leval 1 stylest do my hair cut and style and it was great- Their pricing is for the level of stylist you use a #7 is the highest one and sometimes it is better to use a new stylest I did so and was very happy--I used a #1 this means the stylest was out of beauty school a short time-I would have gone there for my perm but they did not use my perm ISO 2 and would not let me bring my own So I went to the Spa and every one knows this story due to my first post.Please also note Dimensions is in a group of salons owned by the beauty school here--They only hire their graduates!
