Studio 23 Hair Design & Hair Straightening (Keratin Complex), Hair Salon - Addison

I went to Mark after receiving a botched cut and tacky looking color from a popular Dallas salon. Feeling down about the look (and not to mention the wasted $$$) I called Mark. He was booked solid, but could sense how desperate I was due to some important work commitments around the corner. Mark stayed late the next evening to accommodate my schedule & accomplished what I consider a hair miracle! By really listening to what I wanted and using his color expertise, he was able to alter my poor color job and transform my locks to a natural, shiny color. Next, he took the time to run through my head of hair strand by strand and fix the botched cut job while preserving the length. The result was increased movement and volume. l am so happy with the outcome - exactly what I wanted before the bad experience I had gone through prior to visiting Mark's Studio 23. Definitely will be claiming Mark as my new stylist! Pros: Color and cut correction more

Today was my 1st visit with Mark and this will be the 1st time I have ever commented after ""just one visit"". Mark did an absolutely fantastic job coloring my hair (well, truth be told, correcting what I attempted). He gives you ALL of his attention and makes suggestions but never tries to ""oversell"" or make you feel dumb about what you tried on your own. Mark is so personable. He is one of the few hairstylists I can honestly say I have enjoyed talking to and listening to. His sincerity and genuine concern to give you exactly what you want is undeniable. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and co-workers and was sure to make my next appt before I left. He is unique and talented and not over-priced that you have to blink and catch your breath when you find out what it costs. I am one happy client. Pros: Great with color, knows his stuff, great personality more

I haven't been in Dallas very long. I tried a salon in uptown and found that location & status are nothing when looking for a stylist (after years of the same stylist in LA). My old stylist told me to look for someone who uses Matrix, so I researched from that standpoint and found Mark. Mark spoke on the phone with my previous stylist to get formulas/colors that she had used and did a wonderful job. Mark is very personable and it's obvious that he really knows his business. I also really like the way he styled my hair afterwards, I have always gone home & restyled my hair in the past. Pros: Personable & very knowledgeable more

Mark Young has been doing my hair for 20 years. Over these many years, he?s taken me through short, spiky styles to long, flowing layers and everything in between! This entire time he?s also been coloring my hair. We?ve been through highlights, lowlights, semi-permanent color, to finally permanent color to cover that stubborn grey! Mark is very knowledgeable about hair, hair products, and chemical processes. My hair is challenging in that it is very thick, coarse texture, and wavy; if left on its own it would rival Bozo the Clown! But Mark knows exactly what hair styles, hair lengths, products, and styling methods are best for me to enable me to manage my mane into a beautiful style that is both flattering and head turning. If Mark can manage my hair, he can manage anything! We?ve had some great conversations over the first 20 years and I look forward to the next 20 with Mark. I consider Mark to be not only an awesome hairdresser, but also a good friend. Pros: Excellent haircuts, color, overall hair care knowledge more

I'm stuck without Mark. His attention to detail is legend amongst his clients. His artistry is second to none. In addition, he is far more educated than your average stylist, even the ones at the "top" salons don't know what he does about the color techniques much less the biology he can explain. All those that I have recommended to him say the same thing, "Wow, I can't believe how much I love my hair, I'm never going to anyone else!" Try Mark's talent, YOU will never go to anyone else.I've been going to Mark since I moved to Dallas 10 years ago. I have curly/wavy/thick/coarse hair. You can imagine how difficult it is to cut and color with so many challenges. My type of hair must be cut properly to incorporate the curls into a beautiful cut. If not, the waves are unruly and nothing lays correctly.I have NEVER been able to find someone to cut my hair correctly until I went to Mark. In addition, my locks are a mess to color because it is so thick and processes very quickly. I've went to more

This is a e-mail Mark sent me. His client loves him! I have used him as well for color correction. He is fantastic! Name: Chris > > Comments: The review I promised you, Mark!

He listened to my needs and took my hair from a dull brownish red > to a vibrant blonde - even though my hair was terribly over-processed. > The cut was sleek and flattering and I immediately received tons of > compliments.

I have been a client of Mark's for about 15 years. He is the only stylist I have found who gives me the type of cut that allows me to manage my curly, coarse (and sometimes unruly) hair between visits; and, of course, he makes it look wonderful ! Pros: Just fantastic! Go see for yourself more

I have very long ,thick hair . Most stylists don't seem to even want to tackle my hair let alone highlight it. I've always had to pay a little extra because my hair is so long and thick ,I understand and am happy to, because my hair takes more time and product. But in the past I would have to listen to the stylists in Dallas complain through the whole service. I hated going to get my hair done because I always felt guilty, like I was really putting them out. Not any more, I love getting my hair done with Mark in Dallas, I have a great time and leave with beautiful hair every time ! I have been a cut and highlight client of Mark's for eight years now and I'm not going anywhere ! Jenna K Pros: Great with thick hair Cons: not a one! more

I have been a client of Mark?s for approximately 25 years. Every since my very first visit in 1984 he has worked with me to get great results from the ?big hair-perm days? of the ?80s to the trendy styles of the ?90s to the more sleek, sophisticated styling of more recent years. He is great at all of this. He takes the time to help me review different looks (either via pictures or just visual/verbal consultations) to help determine what works best for my face shape and hair quality. He is great at colors too. I?ve had highlights of different colors (from a burgundy to blonde and back to solid dark brown). I have NEVER been disappointed! I consistently get compliments from family and friends/co-workers on my cut/color. I?ve even had total strangers come up and ask who does my hair! I can honestly say that there were a few times I walked in with a style in mind and after talking to Mark realized that that style wouldn?t really work for me and my styling habits, however Mark worked his magic and gave me something better than I had in mind and that would work for me. Mark?s personality makes it a joy to go see him in addison. He is always positive and happy. There are also been a few times where my schedule prohibited me from making my appointment, but Mark has worked with me to get in at the next possible time that works for both of us. He consistently goes out of his way to make sure I get a great cut/color/style that works for my schedule, both in terms of the time of the appointment and in my styling habits. I cannot imagine ever changing to another hairdresser, and I see myself going to him up until either my deathbed or his! he is located in Addison today, give him a call and you too will be hooked.

If you are new to Dallas or even if you have not found the right hair stylist yet. Mark Young is who you need to see. Not only is he very personable, but he's been around the block a few times. Pros: Great colorist more

If you are new to Dallas or even if you have not found the right hair stylist yet. Mark Young is who you need to see. Not only is he very personable, but he's been around the block a few times. I myself have relied on Mark for many years as a stylist and I look forward to many more. He has taken my full length hair and changed my image to a savvy short business look that works in Dallas. After many years I finally decided (with coaching from my sister) that I needed some color. That was it, I was hooked. If you need a new look or hair idea, Mark Young is the Hair stylist Man to see!
