| - Thankfully a rad coworker who has an eye for fashion/style pointed me in the direction of Salvador Calvano Hair. You can read about all Salvador and Patty's amazing work on their website but in a nutshell: they're legit stylists. From runways to magazines, they've traveled the globe doing what they love....and now they've set up shop in Phoenix.
Their salon has this industrial chic feel with vintage items, photography, and artwork on the walls. I read somewhere how someone described it as looking more like an art gallery than a salon. Pretty spot on. But it's not like a stuffy art gallery where you can't touch anything and people walk around with their noses turned up. On the contrary, Salvador and Patty welcomed me with open arms making me feel more than welcome in their space. Within minutes I felt like I had known them for years.
As usual, I sat down, said that I'm open to anything, and let them do their thing. After some discussion between the two Patty said, "I love your natural waves. How about a wash, scrunch, and go style. No blow drying needed." Music to me ears. I'd say she read me quite well. So that's the direction we went.
I walked away not only loving my hair but Salvador and Patty too.
After living in Phoenix for 2 years I've searched high and low for a hair salon. I've come across some great people and salons. However, for some reason or another they just weren't 'right' for me. I think I may have found that fit.
