I have to say, i'm EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED with the cut i received from salon blast. i don't see what all the hype is about. i went to see juan to have a drastic cut. i showed him a picture of what i wanted to do, he told me my hair isn't suited for it (which is fine, i have coarse asian hair, maybe it would have been true). he told me he would give me a cut that would even out the layers i had. sounds like good advice right? what did he do? he gave me a blunt cut straight acrossace the back and shortened my fridge around my face. hell, i thought he was at least giving me a style. nope, he gave me a cut i could have done with a pair of scissors in my own bathroom. straight across. no graduated layers, nothing. and if that weren't bad enough, he tried to style my hair. i had one side poofy, one side with a hard angled kink. \r

if you have layering problems, stay away from salon blast. i wasted 72$, i hope you don't make the same mistake.\r

Follow up (Dec 19, 2008): Juan did actually send me a cheque for 72$ along with an apology and an offer to correct my hair once it has grown out somewhat. I think that shows a lot of decency and pride in his workmanship and that he is willing to go the extra mile to please his customer. I really appreciate people who have such morals. This is the definition of a smart business person. Thanks Juan, maybe I will go back in January.
Pros: honest stylists who refund you if they do a bad job.
Cons: bad hair cuts. period.
