| - You have to understand that a five star review for a salon, from me, is serious business. It seems like every year I give a professional a chance with my hair and I've had everything from mullets to green hair to orange hair to W.T.F. I have very dense, thick, curly hair and finding someone that can cut it correctly is like finding a horcrux and getting the haircolor right is like a Housewive's reunion with no yelling!
So, based on the other review, I nervously made an appointment with Melissa. I was impressed from the moment I walked in with the professionalism of the staff. Since my last horrible experience, I actually considered cosmetology school and bought and read all of the textbooks the Paul Mitchell school here had on their curriculum.
Now, based on my education, I observed everything. From consultation, to cut, to color, I knew exactly what I should expect of Professionals and that is what I received. The cut is perfect, the color is perfect, and, most importantly, my husband LOVED it when I got home! Thank God, because he would have thrown me out otherwise when he looked at that dent in our checking account.
Melissa cut and foiled my hair, Louie finished the color and shampooed me, and Gina helped her blow dry my hair as I'd been there three hours already - it was closing time! All were very nice. I actually talked the most to Louie and found out that he works for Redken and travels the country teaching stylists about coloring. He did confirm that Melissa is famous for her skills cutting thick hair.
I only have one negative thing to say and that is some hair color did get on the back of my shirt. Fortunately it was black. It was a little chaotic while I was there, though. They are busy because they are great!
This is a New York salon experience right here in northeast Ohio and I'm very grateful to have found Laus Deo! I am even enjoying the Redken products that I purchased.
