The reason the Parlour is so good is because they train/educate ALL of their stylist for an entire year in an apprentice program before they are ever allowed to even touch a client. Any stylist doing hair there has graduated a pretty hardcore education program and proven themselves to the master stylists. I went to Felicia and I could tell that she really, really cared about making me happy and giving me what I ask for, but also made great suggestions and gave me a beautiful cut. I got a glass of wine and she even had the front desk run and get me a sandwich from the restaurant next door when I mentioned I was hungry! PLUS a scalp massage, style, and my meter fed for me! All or a $31.00 haircut? Oh--and a lot of people complain about the parking there. The first visit or two, it can be daunting but it gets easier and faster the more you go there. Plus, once you get into the Parlour, they (the employees there) run out and feed your meter for you so you don't have to worry about it! Just arrive a good 15 minutes earlier to find some parking and bring your quarters. It's not that bad, really. Worth the trouble for a high quality salon that provides clients with highly trained stylists.
Pros: atmostphere, people, quality service
Cons: Not really any that I've found
