I went to see Serenity yesterday afternoon looking for a clean cut (I wanted to look good for my boyfriend's work holiday party). I asked her to try something new and try and get rid of the damaged look to my hair. I have very fine hair that hadn't been cut in awhile (about 5-6 months) and I felt like a mess. She offered suggestions, such as giving me a sideways baing (sorry for the misspelling, apparently citysearch won't let me submit and calls it an "inappropriate word"), which I was skeptical about. But I decided to try it anyways and she made it long so that should I feel it wasn't the look for me, I could tuck it behind my ears and it would grow out easily. The baing looks awesome! This morning, I woke up and my hair looked great without even styling it! I simply parted my hair on the side (never done it before, always did in the middle) and the baing really made me look stylish! Color- I asked her about her recommendations for color, which I was considering but wasn't quite sure I was ready to invest another $70 for. I had only done highlights before (caramel blonde) and she suggested a brown slightly darker than my natural hair color with a tint of red. The color brought so much vibrance to my hair and actually takes away some of the thin look to my hair! (as she had advised). The color of my hair also brought out the red of the brown dress that I bought right afterwards for the holiday party (a color I would never have worn otherwise- I always wear black)- a pleasant change and surprise! I don't usually post anything on citysearch because I've been going to several salons and testing them out, never finding someone that surprises me. Serenity did. She was pleasant, offered suggestions (about the hair cut, the color, and the styling), knew what she was talking about, and didn't waste any time. Thank you Serenity!
Pros: Serenity, parking in Bellevue Place for free for 3 hrs (although busy yesterday, not pressured to buy anything
Cons: upper salon prices, although worth it with serenity
