| - Miracles performed daily. At The Urge. Now, this isn't so much a review of The urge as it is for one man - Eddie. Ah Eddie.....
Feeling a confession.... Hello. My name is Kristin C. and I was a Supercut's girl. Actually, it was so bad, Supercuts was often my "fancy" haircut place. Fantastic Sam's was fine. Great Clips. Who ever had the lowest price, with or without a coupon, and didn't require an appointment. It was a pretty sad state of affairs. I always reasoned to myself that since I never wanted a complex cut, why pay complex cut prices. Anyone can cut a straight line, right? Oh... {shivering in shame} I was so wrong. One shop in the mall cut my hair (mid back length) in an angle so bad that there was a good 4 inch difference from one side to the next. But I digress.....
A guy friend referred a guy friend to Eddie. Both guys had dramatically different hair, and shall we say, different "hair goals". I ended up being there when Eddie did his hair a few times and it came up that I'd never had my hair done "professionally". After a year or so, they both encouraged me to take the plunge. Wow. So, 10 years later, no one but Eddie has ever touched my hair. And I'm not the only one.
As good as he is, I'm always scared to share him with too many folks or I'll never get in again. That said, I have several fancy salon friends who have become devoted Eddie devotees as well. A couple I introduced to him about 8 years ago now drive in from Queencreek for every cut and color. Another friend took her mom there and by the end of her cut, she suddenly had curls where straight hair had been before. She'd never seen her mom with curly hair. Her mom said, "Oh yea, I used to have curly hair when I was young but it went away".
Eddie will tell you that his specialty is color, not styling. So don't come to him just for that up-do for prom. He's not that guy. (Though with his Southern roots he could most likely rock that hair nice and high, but if he says it's not his thing, it's not his thing...) But if you want an amazing cut, or hair color done so well everyone swears it must be natural - go to Eddie. Tell him Kristin sent you. That way when he starts to get WAY too busy, he'll still find time to fit me in. :)
