I love shopping for makeup and hair care products here. I downgraded it by one star for two reasons: 1) sometimes the high-end cosmetics does not look well-maintained and even gets a bit dirty; 2) the salon manager got really snotty with me a few weeks ago.
Most of the stylists here are top notch. But I recently had a bad cut from someone who has done a terrific job on my hair in the past. When I called on Tuesday (my cut was on Friday) to say that I thought something was wrong with my cut, the manager gave me such a hard time that I considered never coming back. Everything worked out though. After Mr Ugly Manager finally saw some reason and set me up for a re-cut, I saw the same woman and she did a bang-up job the second time around.
I never saw J-Byrd but someone else did my brows here about a year ago and she did a terrible job so I haven't tried the brows again. There's an Asian salon in the same strip mall as Trader Joe's over on Decatur that does great eyebrows for something like $7.
