Wow. My first great haircut in Overland Park. A+++++ Big thank you to Irina!
I've lived here almost 10 years and have gone to some of the nicer salons in the area, Mario T, Xiphium, Double Take and a few others. They are nice salons, but I don't walk out with the haircut I want, I leave with the haircut they THINK I need. I often feel rushed in and out of the chair as these salons strive to meet their quotas for the day. I finally decided to research some other salons and wound up calling the Last Tangle after reading the reviews here.
About Me: Late 30's, very thick hair, some damage due to coloring/processing.
I booked an appt with Irina after reading several reviews and brought her a magazine pic of what I wanted to achieve. We talked through the cut to make sure it would work with my hair type, lifestyle, etc. I am one of those visual people who prefers to bring a picture in. I have found other salons try to disuade me from referring to a pic (even though the cut is appropriate for my hair type) because the ""artist"" wants his own leeway. No thank you.
Irina did a wonderful job and really took her time to achieve exactly what I wanted! I can't say enough about her. My husband was also very impressed with my cut!
Irina is also gentle with your hair (I really dislike stylists who aren't aware of how hard they are pulling your hair while shampooing/styling).
The salon itself is clean and well organized. Everyone seems to get along well and it is a cheerful environment. The customers I saw were in their mid 30's and up. It is not stuffy or pretentious, and I didn't notice any attitudes/egos.
I'm really glad I found this place...it is so nice to have someone take such pride in giving you the hairstyle you really want.
Try the Last Tangle.
Pros: A++ Great Haircut, Great Listening Skills, Great People
