| - I happened upon the Yelp page for Snapdragon yesterday while searching for an affordable salon in the Camelback corridor. I saw that they held complimentary model sessions on Wednesday mornings so I gave them a call to see if they had any space available in the coming months. Much to my delight, they were able to accommodate me this morning!
As with any complimentary service or product, I didn't walk in expecting the gold standard, but given my almost non-existent budget for these type of luxuries as well as the current condition of my hair, I would have been happy putting a pair of scissors in almost anyone's hands if they were willing to do it for free. My experience however, was well beyond expectations. The staff at Snapdragon was warm and immediate in their greeting. They quickly made me comfortable and asked if I wanted a beverage. I wasn't made to wait past my appointment time and was quickly introduced to my stylist Stephanie who brought me to her station. Being that I was scheduled as a model, my cut and style was to serve as a continuous training for the staff on a specific method, so I didn't expect to have too much control over the cut itself. My experience, instead, was just the opposite. Stephanie as well as the owner Kandy and the education coordinator Jenny all made it a point to consult with me prior to the cut. They asked questions to get a feel for my style preference, as well as to gauge the amount of change I was comfortable with. I made a statement which probably causes all stylists to cringe inside, "I don't want to lose any length". I felt foolish after saying it, knowing full well that my hair needed to be cut in order to remove damage done a few months ago when I lost a large chunk of length to a candle's flame (guess I should have opened with that little bit of information). They did not once urge me to cut my hair shorter than I was comfortable with. Rather, they offered a solution of removing just the damaged ends and placing a single extension which would not only help me keep the length I wanted, but also blend the previous inconsistencies from my last "corrective" cut.
After Stephanie completed her work, the owner Kandy personally placed the extension in my hair. I was given thoughtful instructions on how to properly maintain and care for the extension. During the entire process, the ladies took their time while still being mindful of my own schedule for the day. Products were recommended but not pushed. And the entire staff complimented me on the results (credit due completely to Stephanie, Jenny, and Kandy).
I feel like a million bucks, I still can't believe that the visit was complimentary. I can't wait to visit again and would highly recommend you try them out as well. Thank you so much ladies!!
