I've lived in New York City for the past 10 years and have tried dozens of stylists at various salons (Devachan, Bumble & Bumble, Beehive, Mousey Brown, Hair Metal, etc.) and have NEVER found a stylist who knows how to cut curly hair like AMIE at Akada. Unlike many stylists, she listens to you explain the individual nature of your hair while studying it for several minutes. For instance, the front of my head is much curlier than the back. I ALWAYS leave her chair with a face-flattering, unique cut that feels fabulous. The great thing about Amie is that she works with complete confidence and it doesn't take an hour - like some stylists who treat my head like a topiary that is never quite finished. I've been to so many stylists in NY who look like they might have a nervous breakdown while cutting my hair - usually because they're just not sure how to cut curls. Amie is not like that. She is a professional with many years of experience and pays close attention when you tell her what you want. I even asked her to do curly bangs and she didn't bat an eye. No problem! They look fantastic! She has a killer style herself so you can trust that your cut will be completely hip.
I'll be coming back to Columbus to see Amie for all of my future haircuts :)
