A chocolate and scalp massage does not make a great cut and style.

It has taken me almost 2 years to write this because of how upset I have been. I will give it to Joey, he is a very nice guy, but he destroyed my hair. I realize that I am going against the grain of the rest of his reviews, but I am being honest. I found him on city search. His reviews were great so I booked an appointment. When I met him he was very nice and personable. I asked him to cut my hair above my shoulders but below my chin and put in highlights of blond and red through my brown hair. I wanted it to look somewhat natural. By the time he was done I had a decent cut but my hair was COMPLETELY blond and red. After washing it the colors blended together and made pink. When I went back I told him I liked the cut but it needed to be a little shorter. He said the only thing he could do to fix the color is color it solid brown. I should have left right then because that isn't true. He could have weaved the brown back in instead, it just takes longer. When I left the 2nd time my hair was cut above my chin and my hair was solid brown. Maybe I got Joey on 2 different bad days and he really is fabulous, but I don't think so. After leaving both times my hair was slightly shorter on one side than the other. I could have gone anywhere to get that cut. He is GREAT at cookie cutter cuts! If you want your hair to look exactly like someone else's Joey is your man! While it is important to feel comfortable with your stylist and being pampered is great, it doesn't make up for bad hair. Hair is very personal to each of us, it effects the way we feel about ourselves and how we present ourselves. I couldn't look at myself in the mirror for almost a year because I would cry. Finally after 2 years my hair grew out enough that I could try again. I went to Sinia at Third dimensions in Poulsbo (she couldn't do worse than him). I have blond highlights and a beautiful cut that is all my own. I feel beautiful again and can look in the mirror without crying. Thank you Sinia!

Pros: Joey is really nice!!!

Cons: he didn't listen. my hair was uneven, parking

What a horrible experience you had, and I am truly sorry you had such a bad time with my services. There is nothing that can be done to fix your experience now, and I wish you would have called me to tell me this so I could make it even better than we tried to make it. Call me at 206.228.5639 and let's get a refund on its way! I shoot for 100% satisfaction, and sounds like got a bad score with you. I'm happy to hear that you found Sinia, and she is working well for you. Enjoy this sun, and be sure to give me a call! - Joey
