| - To scratch my itching desire for something different, I go through a multitude of hair styles in any given year : from retro pinup to blunt cut fringe; from beachy California waves to stick straight and shiny, I've tried it all. Recently I wanted to go from my rounded Betty bangs to a more shaggy, rocker, Sally Herschberger sort of look. My stylist at the time excelled at victory rolls, but didn't have an eye for layers and so I took to Yelp in search of a stylist. I found James. He gave me everything I could have wanted in a cut and then some.
The salon is in a strip mall off Spring Mountain but the interior more modern than the facade indicates. English is a second language for James, so there is the possibility of miscommunication, but James' skill makes up for any slight inconveniences. He didn't even need to look at my hair, he looked at my face and decided what style would look best with my face shape. He also brought over a binder with photos of various cuts and showed me what he wanted to do and how he would modify the cut shown in the photo to personalize it for me. Once he began cutting, I knew immediately that I had a winner. I couldn't keep the smile off my face. He used a razor and two different types of shears, as well as utilizing a multitude of different techniques. James said before he began cutting, "Perfect is boring, I want to make you look sexy," and boy did her ever. My fine, brown boring hair was transformed to a bouncy, effortless shag and all for only 35 dollars. I give him five meticulously coiffed stars.
