It's been less than a day since I've had my new haircut, and I literally got compliments from everyone I came in contact with yesterday :) Ego +1 haha. I found The Parlor via Yelp, and quickly phoned them to see if they took walk-ins. The guy answering the phone told me appointments would be best, but walk-in's were accepted. He was able to squeeze me in the next hour after that call with Randie. \n\nUpon entrance, I was warmly greeted with smiles by Randie who came to check me in. I was taken to her station shortly after to describe what I wanted. I just told her the length I wanted my hair to be (about 3inches past my collarbone), and left everything else in her hands haha. I told her how this was a spite cut for my husband since he went from having a head of hair to waxy bald. Randie was genuinely engaged in conversation the whole time and also had this very contagious energy, making the whole process super comforting! I didn't quite have any idea about how I wanted my haircut to be done besides the length, so I wanted to seek her recommendation. She had an \"image\" of what to do with my hair and made sure each step was okay with me before she proceeded. \n\nHair profile before: waist-length thin long straight dead-end hair\nHair profile after: sleek layered framing shoulder-length hair\n\nDuring the cut, I also inquired about coloring, as I have always wanted to go a brown-red. My box dyes have always made my hair bleed reds after each wash. She gave me a dye consultation after my fantastic cut and took her time helping me look for the right shade of red, colormatching my hair and seeing what could be done. I'm surely scheduling my next appointment here with Randie whether it be a cut or color job! \n\nIf you check in on Yelp as a first timer here, you'll receive 15% off, bringing your bill from $40 to $34. Even with the full price, the level of expertise makes the prices extremely reasonable!\n\nAlso, instead of spiting my husband with the shorter hair (he used to love my long hair), he ended up loving the shorter hair more than my previous hair. ;D"^^ .
