| - It sounds like it REALLY depends who you get.
I went with one of my girlfriends, after hearing about the place from another friend. I brought pictures of what we both wanted on my iPad, and we had a conversation with our stylists before the scissors came out. My girl didnt have the greatest English, but we muddled through conversation. As luck would have it, a colorist/rep named Georgina from L'Oreal Pro was in that day working with students on colours, and took interest in what was going on with me. The colours she suggested are perfect. AMAZING, even. She taught my stylist and I about a slightly different pattern than the conventional for my highlights so they didnt look stripey. The next hour or two was spent with my stylist painting colour into my hair, and Georgina periodically floating by, praising her, and sometimes lending a hand with hard parts. All in all, the process took a little longer than it should have because my stylist was new, and checked to make sure she w as doing it right a lot.. But I'd rather that than a rushed butchery of my hair.
By the time the timer went off on my colour, it was approaching the time they close, so I think the washing and drying of my hair were a little rushed. She almost forgot to condition.. But thats not the end of the world, and on the whole, my experience was with a stylist who was cautious with my hair, was able to execute instructions, and who had the support of skilled instructors.
