In a nutshell: Amazing hair/color job, awful facials, great service, beautiful modern salon (a 5 if the facial wasn't so horrible). The details: My friend was the one who got the package, and I went with her. I believe we each paid $30 plus a $15 fee at the salon, which I do not consider to be at all expensive for a haircut. I have curly hair which I wanted short in the back and a bit longer in the front, as well as a round face. This is a very difficult style as it needs to look great both curly and straight, plus I have very thick hair which requires half an hour of blow drying to tame. Celia cut my hair, highlighted and straightened it. When I say it was perfect I mean I was as close to tears of joy as I can be looking at my own reflection. The color never washed out, and the haircut grew out to perfectly frame my face. She spent 2.5 hours with me industriously laboring over every strand of hair, while I sipped wine and chatted with her. I ended up paying $80.00 for the color, so total of $125 is very fair and I'm going back this Thursday (3 months later). My friend has long straight blond hair which she had trimmed, blown dry, and they put in a special gloss for free. We were super nice to our stylists and they treated us very well.
Now the unfortunate part. My friend and I returned the following Saturday for the facial part of the package. While the actual facial experience was not terrible, we were both very upset when a week later you could play connect the dots on our chins. Whatever products they used made us break out horribly. So while Il'l be returning to see Celia pretty often, I'd steer clear of that back room.
