"I used to live in Vegas and moved back a year ago. My old stylist moved to start up his own business elsewhere - he used to go to L.A. frequently to do hair shows and learn new techniques, so I really trusted him. Finding a new place/person to go to was going to be tough. \n\nI searched reviews, trying to find somewhere to go that wasn't phony, that actually had talented staff, and that wasn't outrageously overpriced. I definitely found that at Kelly Cardenas!\n\nThis was the second time I've been to the salon. It was a last minute decision to get my hair cut, so I went with Justin, since he had an opening in the afternoon. I'm so glad I decided to try him! Justin is awesome - he made sure he understood what I wanted, gave me his vision of what he wanted to do, made sure I was okay with that, and then kept me up to speed on what he was doing every step of the way. In the end, my hair turned out amazing!\n\nI couldn't have felt better about the entire experience, and am so glad that his vision of what he wanted to do with my hair turned out to be better than I could have imagined. That's when I know I've found someone I will return to - when I don't have to tell them exactly what to do, since they are creative enough to see what will look good on me. \n\nI think others have raved about how friendly the staff is, how nice/clean the salon is, and the great zen area they have to wash your hair/give you a scalp massage. I won't go into detail about those facts, except to say they are all true and I've had a great experience each time I've been here.\n\nThis is my first review on Yelp. I felt so good about my hair, I had to create a login just to share my experience. Since the only way I found this place was reading the reviews of others on here, hopefully mine will also make a difference for someone else out there looking for a great hair place to go to. I highly recommend Justin!\n\n\nThanks again, JUSTIN!!!!"^^ . "0"^^ . "2011-08-20T00:00:00"^^ . . "5"^^ . "0"^^ . . . "0"^^ .
