Scissors Hair Studio SAVED me…\r
\r
A few weeks ago I got highlights at a JCPenney’s salon in Richmond. I told the lady “natural looking and NOT bulky” When I looked in the mirror I wanted to cry. My hair was bright yellow on top with huge chunks of whitish yellow throughout, while the bottom of my hair remained my natural light brown color. I ended up going back the next day because it just looked that bad. The lady put in some low lights which toned down some of the yellow, but it still looked awful. When my eyes starting watering some of the staff came over to me and proceeded to lecture me on highlights and how I should have been clear on what I wanted done.\r
\r
For the past three weeks I attempted to fix my hair with at home hair dye kits. First I tried a medium blonde. When that didn’t work I tried a light neutral blond, then a week later a medium neutral blonde. My hair ended up turning this ugly orangey color and the bad highlights were still visible. I didn’t want to go out of my apartment.\r
\r
I am new to the Richmond area so I didn’t really know what salons were around and which ones did a decent job. I mean you would think JCPenney would be good right? \r
\r
I googled “hair salon Richmond VA” and sorted my search by ratings. Scissors Hair Studio came up with about 200 ratings of 5 stars. I spent a good while reading the reviews people posted. It sounded like the salon was worth going to.\r
\r
I called around 11:30am to try to schedule an appointment; sure I was going to have to wait a few days. I told them about my horrible hair experience at JCPenneys/at home hair dying and they said “Can you be by 12:30?” Wow! \r
\r
As soon as I walked in I could see why people liked this place so much. I was greeted by Melanie who gave me a tour of the salon. I was amazed by the style of the place and all of the services offered. Unlike the stylists at JCPenney, the stylists at Scissors Hair Studio consult with you and with each other before even touching your hair. Melanie did my hair was the stylist who did my hair and never once did I feel rushed to make a decision.\r

When I saw the three tubs of color I was a little nervous. But when Melanie dried my hair and I looked in the mirror I was speechless. It looked WONDERFUL! The orange and yellow were all gone. It turned into a beautiful natural looking ash blonde with highlights that blended so well together and looked great against my skin tone. Melanie gave me a lot tips on how to maintain the color and keep my hair healthy as well as how to dry it with the round brush to make it flow like celebrities hair often does. \r
\r
The entire experience at Scissors Hair Studio is amazing. I will never go anywhere else to have my hair done. I am actually going back in a few weeks to my hair conditioned and nails done : )\r

So anyone who needs a hair cut, or wants highlights/coloring and aren’t sure what you are looking for keep in mind you are taking a risk by going to chain hair salons. Give Scissors Hair Studio a try. You will not be disappointed!\r
Pros: friendly staff, comfortable environment, top service
