| - Ok so I was just in Vegas for the day, although I'll be moving out there in the next few weeks. I just needed a hair cut by someone who knew what they were doing because my hair was a freaking train wreck that had been worked on by several, fixed by none.
A friend told me about a salon at this location, but it wasn't the Paul Mitchell one, it was some other one that I can't even remember now. I turned into the strip mall entrance and saw straight ahead "Paul Mitchell School" and decided that's where I was going to go.
BEST. IDEA. EVER. It's exciting and lively and creative, full of students who know their business. So you get a consultation, a stylist who is a student and then a senior stylist who isn't. And the two work together to create magic on your head. My stylist was Vanessa. The senior stylist was having Vanessa do so many different techniques on my hair...some that I'd never even seen before. I was amazed. It was just such a creative environment. And all the stylists, students or not, had AWESOME haircuts, colors and styles.
The upshot is I was treated like a princess, got a fantastic haircut, and it cost $15!!!! Of course I bought $80 in hair products, but I really needed them anyway. $15 for one of the best cuts I have ever had.
There's just something about enthusiastic stylists who aren't complacent, but really push the limits of their skills and creativity. I'm very happy to have found my salon in my new town. It's a huge relief. I can't wait to go back. We already planned what we were going to do for my next cut!
