This salon fits my check list: convenient location & hours, great customer service, locally owned, and beautiful upscale feel without inflated upscale prices. Tried it out for my son, who has really complicated hair. He got a great cut today. His stylist was a great listener and took her time to make sure he got the cut he wanted. Meanwhile, I had an awesome spur of the moment consultation with stylist Bree. She just returned from an advanced level hair school in San Fransisco (adding to her 15 years of experience) and had some great suggestions for me. I scheduled myself for a cut with her next week! Great Awhatukee salon!
