| - Hillary is awesome! This was my first visit here: I decided to go based on other Yelpers' reviews, because I figured that 93 people just couldn't be wrong :).
I had an idea of what color and cut I wanted, and was hoping I could convey my wishes and also get a stylist that would understand and improve on my ideas. Hillary had the most amazing - to me - blue metallic with lighter blue-gray tint hair : fantastic!!
I had thought of something similar, but also had purple on my brain. Plus, I wanted my hair short in the back because it's Arizona and darn hot already, and I hate longer hair that goes all over the place, tucking into my T-shirts.
So we discussed my ideas, she had great input and "got me" and what I wanted : I was so excited to see the final result I was like a little kid waiting for Christmas morning hahaha.
Hillary first cut my hair and that was worth 1,000 points straight away: perfect, exactly what I had in mind, including the longer bit at the front I want to grow out! The back was scissor cut very short and the bottom cut in a straight line, without that pesky little tail that always drives me crazy.
Then she went to work with tons of foils, feathering the color so it wouldn't come out all in a straight line but gently change from my silvery white hair to the lilac-purple. All the 20 minutes under the heat, and then while she rinsed and lightly shampooed my hair in cool water, I was fidgety and dying to see the result.
When all this was done, the others around me of course saw my hair first, and they were all :" Ohh it looks amazing'" , " I love it! Next time I want that too!"
Finally I was seated back in the chair and the damp towel came off : Yes !!! Love my cut! Love the color!
Love Hillary! Next time, after this color fades out, I'm going to have her do my hair in dark blue :)
