I booked an appointment for Momentum without even seeing more than the sign on the outside. When I went in for services, my appointed stylist didn't seem to want to work with me and started handing me books to look through when I didn't know what I wanted. I'm used to telling stylists what like and don't like and what my hair type is and my level of styling effort, and I swear I saw her roll her eyes at one point. My original hair color is a base light brown and my old stylist (I've moved) had very fine pieces of light pale blond put in and faint red mahogany pieces as well. I thought that I would need an all over color and then maybe do something else. The lady said she could work with what I had and she left me in the chair for almost 15 minutes. She came back with three things of color and didn't even inform me as to what was going on, and I had to ask her. She told me about the shades but never brought the samples out to match to my base or skin tone. I have pink undertones and when she was done my head was covered in BRIGHT blond or various pieces, and pale auburn placed oddly in an attempt to warm it up, with an obvious 2 inches of my original roots underneath that hadn't been hidden because she didn't do an all over color to me first. I was not happy with it at all but the initial impression of the place tells me not to go back even for a fix it job.
There is nothing stylish about this place. It's just a basic salon. No one has fun chunks of color in their hair and the clientèle is very tame. It's just plain boring and overpriced for the level of service. I got a manicure as well, and it turned out at $20 much less than I'd expect from a good $10 manicure in a shopping center. It didn't dry all the way either because the coats were put on way too thickly and began coming off on several fingers over the next hour or two of getting back home.
I called Dolce Salon to explain the situation with my hair, and was assured that it was as odd an experience as I thought it was. They asked me where I got it done and I told them "Momentum". The lady on the phone at Dolce had never even heard of them. This place is not even COMPETiTION!

I've been going to the Herringtons since my first time as a child and began with Carol. As I've gotten older I've switched over to Jay. It's all the same people in the office except my main caregiver. They are very social with you and have a very nice waiting room. Flexible payment options are available at times, given your situation and how well they know you. I've never liked any other dental facility since I've moved, so whenever I visit once or twice a year I always try to get an appointment back with what feels like family.

Of all places in Orange County, I ended up taking my car here. I did a lot of searched on Google and decided on this place. The tint job ranges around $200+ and the tint film is cut by computer to your car specifications. They use Llumar film and if you get the good stuff, you have a vehicle lifetime warranty to any Llumar servicer should something go wrong. The jobs take about 2 hours and there is a sandwich shop next door and plenty of other shops within 3 miles to go see. Steve was great working with me and very friendly and professional, letting you know of all possibilities before you make your final decisions. He even came up with different tint levels to work on my vehicle like having the back window lighter than the sides for better visibility.
The shop is very clean and they do have a website at http://www.aterrifictint.com to browse finished vehicles online and request quotes.

This place is really rather clean, and she treats all family members ranging from around 2 years of age and up. She's got a no non-sense to her that sort of reminds you of your mother, if you need that kind of guidance. We're there because we needed help, either from forced injuries or stress. She's much stronger than the other woman she shares the office with, as I've had lady #2 when Dr. Erica was out on holiday; the later seems to rely more on small massage techniques whereas Dr. Erica actually does adjustment on every visit. I also have TMJ and she's been great at relaxing the muscles in my face on the outside as well as finding the pressure points inside my cheeks.

This facility is very small, but the staff is definitely interesting. The women at the front are always chatting and Dr. Gray always seems to want to know just how everything is going with your life. If you're too tight for an adjustment, they have electrodes to help stimulate your muscles into relief. X-rays are done on-site. This was my first male chiropractor; he works with you gently but has really STRONG hands. He's treated most of my family after old car accidents that we've been involved in at some point in our lives.

I don't recommend them for anyone. I flipped my car on the twisty road between 123 and Fairfax County Parkway near Zion at 123. They did come out in a timely manner and recover the vehicle and took it off to be impounded as it was sure to be totaled. This was just after midnight on July 29th. The guy put the date down on the papers as July 28th. When I went there during the day to sign my car over, they wanted to charge me an huge amount for having it there over 24 hours, which was an outright lie. I had a concussion from the accident and the man behind the counter proceeded to argue with me over the date. Not a comfortable situation; having to sign your vehicle over, medically impaired, and their negligence leading to someone accusing you of trying to rip them off.

I'm highly impressed by this theater. It's located in a very nice center that has you surrounded by any kind of cuisine you would want. Inside the theater you can choose your seats, which also include stadium seated screens and director's boxes.
To my knowledge they even serve pizza at the bar. Cinema De Lux has plenty of games if you just can't take the chick flick your lady has dragged you out to see.

I've never pre-ordered anything with Greensleeves but I love that we had a florist in the mall. It's very easy to pick something up after work and the colors in the shop are amazing. The singles are kept well chilled and sweet-smelling. They wrappings your purchases nicely at check-out.
Located downstairs at Bennigans, and near the corner to your right.

Dr.'s Blackwell and Bates have been treating my family for years. Dr. Bates delivered my brother. Dr. Blackwell has been my gynecologist for years and actually performed my mother's hysterectomy. These two are very busy and extremely professional, in charge of women's health to many of us locally.
My first visit was for a routine exam at 16, and I was scared to death. Dr. Blackwell has a way of discussing everything and keeping you at ease, and never exudes "creepy guy" that you always dread. The visit went swiftly but thorough, once he actually came in with the chart.
The facility is clean, nice color scheme to the waiting room, separate bathroom changing area in each exam room, and for the mothers-to-be: 3D imaging ultrasound.

Rick has saved me in the middle of the night (2am) off a back country road without exact directions. My friend flew the truck in a ditch and within the hour he was there and pulled me out for a recovery fee that was under $100. He always shows up with his sweet little dog and I've actually seen this more than once. Someone got stuck next to my house in mud and after I was done laughing at them the first thing I did was find them the number to Rick's Towing. He actually still remembered my incident from about three years before.
I did use the Auto clinic for a car repair once. The diagnostic at the time was less than $50. The repair was going to cost me $600 somewhere else and they quoted me less than $400. I cannot comment on the work because I didn't get it done; I instead got rid of the vehicle as I was moving out of state a few weeks later.
