| - Yelp and fellow yelpers- thank you for providing such a great service to mankind. My positive experience at this joint truly worked out due to the honest reviews at Yelp. This is a big compliment as well to my stylist, Perry, and his low-key, super gentle and laid-back demeanor.
I've had almost waist-length hair for the past 10 years but made a spur of the moment decision to chop it all off to support a very old friend who is in the last stages of pancreatic cancer (a bunch of my friends cut their hair off too, we're going to surprise him this week). Literally I got the call at 2pm last Saturday, stopped at a Starbucks, yelped a hair place (Beauty to Beauty came up), called and got an appointment with "Perry", and was in the salon chair by 2:30. I walked in and he saw me pretty promptly, and made this experience possibly the easiest and most satisfying hair experience I've ever had. I told him I needed it ALL chopped off. He gave me a women's "short styles" magazine to look through and flipped it page by page for me till the end and I didn't like any of them. Suddenly, he looked up and said WAIT... then returned with a MEN's short hair magazine. Haha! and sure enough there was a style I liked. I wanted something edgier and essentially super short while still framing my face in a nice way because I have a pretty round and "baby-ish" face. I feel like he definitely gave me a style with some edge and sophistication, now that I've had time to absorb my new look. 12 " off, man! He even gave me tips on how to dry and style my new do, as well as a place where I could get the Japanese styling wax he used for half the price (168 market, for anyone who cares to know! haha).
I can't recommend Perry, and this place enough, for my good experience. It made what could have been a sad and potentially regrettable situation into one I can look back and smile on. Out of pocket cost? $40. I tipped him $10.
