I had a confirmed appointment w/ a master stylist and waited a week for the pleasure. They called the night before & confirmed my appt. WITH THIS PARTICULAR STYLIST. When I arrived the next day I found the stylist working on me was not the one I had an appointment with, it was a new stylist, one I could have seen the week before but refused. I was told I was bumped because a regular customer of the stylist I requested called and wanted an appointment! It made no difference I already had one, a confirmed one with a credit card at that. After speaking with the manager I was told I could wait for the stylist of my choice, her next opening being 4 PM (it was 10:30 AM) or I could go ahead with the stylist they foisted off on me. I elected to go ahead although I was quite unhappy at this point. She styled my hair in a strange way, at which point I asked when she was going to cut it. She replied the manager had told her not to! At this point I decided to cut my losses (so to speak) and left the salon without a cut and a bad taste in my mouth. I later wrote a letter to the owners of the salon but they never gave me the courtesy of a reply. By the way, I went straight from this salon to Salon Kendall, where they did a great job. By strange coincidence my stylist there used to work at Dionysus and she stated that MANY customers leave the salon (Dionysus) unhappy, and that they (Salon Kendall) frequently get customers in who have just been to Dionysus and want their hair fixed. I do not recomment this salon and would never go there again. Their customer service is awful, and the owners obviously don't care. (If I had gotten a letter of disappoinment from one of MY customers, you can bet I would have tried to make it right somehow!) Beware if you have a confirmed appt. with a particular stylist - with this salon confirmed does NOT mean confirmed!
Pros: Great ambience, comfortable chairs
Cons: Young staff doesn't listen, will not correct THEIR mistakes
