I actually used CitySearch reviews to find My Bella Color and went in armed with photos for my first appointment. I met Sharon, and we sat down at a long table in her studio and refined what I wanted. After spending close to a half hour talking about the desired look, we began. Throughout the process, she didn't pass me on to an assistant or work on many other clients at the same time. That conveyed the message that as a client, I was valued, and my time was valued as well. While my color was developing, I was able to relax on a couch and read-- as I would at home. I found this relaxed atmosphere and lack to hustle and bustle refreshing and enjoyable. I also loved the results; I went from total blonde to blonde and red. Depending on how I style it, I can look blonder or redder. The versatility is great. The cut was exactly what I wanted! Ever see a girl with stripes in her hair? That's a bad weave. With what Sharon does, take any 20 strands of hair and see a thorough mixture. My overall strawberry blonde is a result of interwoven blonde and darker red. The dimension is incredible and no thick stripes. Most people weave in a line and start at the top of the head and go down. How can that be right for every person? Sharon parted my hair as I would wear it and deliberately placed the foils so that my sideswept bangs with blonde and red layers were deliberately created. That takes time, yes, but I saw the ARTISTRY in what she did. Also, because her price was more than I was used to (300 including tip) instead of half that, she weaved me so that I could go longer between visits. I did fade to multi-dimensional blonde by the end of 2 months, but I was happy with that look too. Sharon's willingness to consult and refine the vision as well as atmosphere, value of the client, and overall results make her worth the money. Enjoy!
