I would like to start off by saying that I give Danielle a 5. She is fantastic. She does a great job cutting my hair, is friendly but not overbearing, and works quickly and professionally. I will keep coming back just as long as she is there.
Why the downgrade? Stop pushing your products! Aveda is the main line here, on the pricey side, but I will occasionally buy some of the products. I just don't like the aggressive product push that is Red Bloom's Policy. I know, you make money off your hair products. I know, you make money off all those cosmetics you want to "try out" on your clients when you request to "freshen up" their look after their cut. I know Red Bloom makes all the stylists follow the hair-product-cosmetic-line-push-procedure. Thank you Danielle for being so subtle and gentle about it. I just don't like this angle.
The second downside, and this is not really Red Bloom's fault, is that I have to put up with all the snooty west-side ladies while I am there. Yes, I am a west-side lady, but not like the stereotypical, entitled, under-worked and pampered sort that hang here. Oh well. Some things I will put up with for a good stylist.
