Had soft water in my house up north. Felt like the water weighed my hair down and always felt dirty after day one:hence I washed my hair every day. I love this water on my hair! Not frizzy and I don't have to wash it every day!

great color & cut

i go to Kacee at Salon Chioma. I also was disappointed for the price. I have had many compliments on my color and short cut.

Kacey at
Salon Chioma is the absolute best! Not cheap, but worth every dollar!

WAIT FOR ME!!...I am going to Crystal at "Cutters Cove" on Tuesday in another attempt to find a hairdresser that is good, honest, not pushing products AND off of the Villages property (pricing comparable to Metro Orlando's NOT like what I paid in NYC). I got the recommendation from this website and will let you know!! Hang in There!! :)

I use Kathy at Cutters Cove and think she's great. She is very professional, listens to what you want, her prices are reasonable and she's very pleasant.

Anyway I have curly hair and asked for a trim, it came out short. I asked for it to be colored dark blond, it came out medium brown. I did not ask for or receive a blow dry. A product was pushed on me so strongly I caved and bought it, even though I don't use products.

The bill for this was $200. I was pretty shocked but didn't say anything. Back in New Jersey it would have been half the price and I would have liked my cut and color.

PS I tried to return the unopened product the next day and they refused.

Is there anything I could have done regarding the price? I can live with the cut and color til next time at another salon.

That place is really rediculous .... I have been there and after going thru almost exactly what you went thru, i tried Fantastic Sams on 441 by Brooklyn bagel and they did a MUCH better job for $60.00 - color cut shampoo and blow dry... and I loved it... i will never go to Dimensions again and have told all my friends the same.... BTW Hair cuttery is gonna open in Pinella's Plaza this month if you want to give them a try... sorry u had that bad experience... I think they take advantage of "new Villagers"....

Sorry to hear about your problem. I was once a stylist, so I know a good cut when I get one. I went to Cal's in Brownwood and have had three excellent haircuts by Tiffany D. I won't go anywhere else. Cut $15... you can't beat that.

Having assisted in some of the leases in Lake Sumter Landing and Spanish Springs, I ann tell you this is simply not true and amounts to nothing more than an urban legend or parroting.

Some leases do in fact have an escaltion clause that is tied to total annual sales. If and when a lessor hits that magic threshold the would be more than happy to pay a single digit "cut". As the number is far and above the planned or forecasted sales levels.

Most do not ever hit the number hence they do not pay anybody a "cut".

TV commercial rates are the same as a retailer would pay in any shopping center anywhere in central FL.

If a retailer is telling folks that....being polite....it is always nice to be able to blame a third party....eh?

I have had very good luck with Victoria at Victoria Hair in Santa Fe Crossing on 466.
Several of my neighbors go there too. Several stylists to choose from.

Kimberly at KRae's, next to Comcast on 441 across from Walmart, the best cut and color I have gotten since moving to Florida, and all for $60.00!!!!
