| - When I moved to Madison, I searched for a place that I would enjoy getting my haircut--one that gave quality service, personal attention, and was affordable. After several poor haircuts (and even resorting to going back to my stylist in Rochester, NY while in town visiting), a friend recommended Essentials to me. Above and beyond my expectations!
This is a small place with 2 stylists, Jen (the owner) and Holly. Both are great! The first time I went there, Jen cut my hair. I wanted a new look, so I brought in a picture of what I wanted my hair to look like. She cut my hair EXACTLY like the picture! Perfect!
Holly cut my hair the last 2 times. She also does a wonderful job. I got so many compliments on my last 2 haircuts! Another friend liked my hair so much that she switched salons to go there and get her hair cut. She loved it too, and her hair looked great.
A word about scheduling in light of another review. Neither I nor my 2 other friends that go to Essentials have had a problem with scheduling an appointment within a reasonable amount of time. If you want a coveted evening appointment, you should call a few weeks ahead. But if you're flexible with the time, it's not a problem. For example, for my last haircut, I called on a Tuesday evening to book and had an appointment on Friday morning (the first available appt. was Thursday).
I would highly recommend Essentials to anyone looking for a great haircut!
