| - As another Yelper posted about herself somewhere, I'm a Russian rouletter, too. Meaning that I'm fine in delving in unknown hair hotspots, if this mean I'll be turning over a gem. Or a toady hair cutter.
Despite being open to having my hair cut by different people, I've been most open to being a repeat client of Hannah's at H2Goa.
Pros:
-she knows how to cut hair, and will leave you with a nice haircut;
-your age and shyness will not matter - she will recommend cool trendy suggestions that she feels will look good on you;
-$35 is reasonable for a woman's hair cut (though longer, thicker hair, will cost up to $45);
-new: I was there yesterday, and realized Hannah makes the effort to be bilingual in this mainly Korean hair salon. I'm so not paranoid about people talking about in another language, but it was nice to have some idea of what they were talking about. She'd say something in English for people like me just sitting there with my hair being cut, and then the same thing in Korean to her snipping colleagues.
Cons:
-I think I might be more granola than Iggy Azalea or Rihanna... It's been a long time since I had my hair done professionally, I was surprised to experience many multitudes of product slathers. They had brand names like Schwartzkop, and most of the fragrances were good, but I just don't normally use so many products and felt funny being on the receiving end;
-Yesterday, waited, despite having an appointment. Perhaps in the future they will tell a client that they have the option to come back in 20 min. if they'd like to walk around the 'hood. In the past, at the other salon Goa, I did not wait as long to start my hair cutting experience.
-ooh... I could see smoke rising from my innocent hair strands under the flat iron.
I wanted a place where I could get any style cut, not just a $15 or $25 cut.
It would have been an advantage if I had a stronger idea of the direction I wanted to go in, style-wise. I have roughly the same style now as before, though it's been improved.
Yesterday's visit was o.k. Every other time I've had Hannah, has been a 4 or 5 star experience.
Yes, I would go there again. At some point.
I would recommend this person and place to a friend, if he or she was looking for a trendy cut, is open to using hair products, lives near Korea town.
People always seem to be colouring their hair, so if you're smell-sensitive, factor that in.
