I'm having a hard time wondering if I should write this review or not, but I think people should know a little about the experience they may have at this salon.
I've been to see Coy about 3-4 times now and each time I've enjoyed getting to know him. Coy promotes the products encouragingly (it's borderline pushy..) and refers to himself as a product guy. He's very interested in what products you use, etc., but oftentimes when people come for a hair cut.. that's .... well it really. I don't particularly enjoy the pushy product sales, especially when you get to the counter and they're all lined up - about 150$ worth of products that you basically have to say YE or NE to. Gets kind of awkies.
For me, personally, this last time I went I felt like my hair cut was rushed as Coy had to get home. He pulled out his phone twice to text with his significant other. I felt like our conversation was insincere and interrupted often to focus on personal matters. My trim only takes about 30-40 minutes so there really is no need to haul out phones to text. A few facts about Edges people should also note:
- My trims with Coy are $75 a cut
- Edges charges a $1.50 recycling fee with every service (which I find incredibly bizarre for a salon)
I really like Coy as a person and think he has a lot of potential to be an incredible, reputable stylist, there just needs to be some polishing in terms of professionalism and making a guest feel like they're having an amazing salon experience. For $75 a cut, I don't feel like I got that experience and would prefer to go somewhere where I don't feel like I'm less important than personal priorities.
