I have been going to MCN for the past six years and have had nothing but excellent service. The front desk staff, while it rotates frequently, has always been extremely courteous, friendly and flexible in getting me an appointment whenever I needed one. The owners are admittedly an odd couple: one is an ice queen and the other is touchy-feely on a Michael Jackson kind of level. However, regardless of whatever else goes on in the salon, Nicolette goes beyond making up for it. She has worked with me on tons of different styles, from short to long and everything in between. Her cutting skills are inimitable and her color work will leave anyone speechless. She's also one of the sweetest people you will ever meet and will take care of you no matter what. I once felt like jumping ship because I was unhappy (I was a fat pig at the time and blamed Nic on me looking like a dirtball, not my three stomach rolls), and went to another salon and got screwed. I called and was in to see Nic within 24 hours and she worked her magic, charging me reasonably unlike other places which would rob you on "restoration" work. All in all, Nic is hands down the best stylist in Pittsburgh and deserves all the merit she has earned.
If I could fly back to Pittsburgh every 4-6 weeks, I totally would. :(
Pros: location, prices, hip ambience, Nicolette, cute bulldog
Cons: you might get groped?, ditzy shampoo girls
