Hooray for Good Hair

Getting a good hair cut is a rare experience for me. Even if I can get the cut close to what I want I always seem to end up in places with atrocious service. One of my huge pet peeves is when I go somewhere for a hair cut, manicure, etc and the staff tries to point out all my flaws and make me feel insecure so I will purchase a more expensive option. One example of this is going for a a cut and having the stylist comment on my gray hair and ask me if I have ever colored my hair. And if I do color my hair, and it comes out I do it myself, well that is terrible, so low rent, I need to get it done professionally. Oh I hate that.

So I stopped in this salon on a whim last night (really just to pet the two adorable mini dogs in there that barked at me as I went by the window) and it was the best hair cut experience of my life!

AND, just as important! They (for 2 ladies worked on me) did a fantastic job!


{when I try and look hungry and pissed off like a super model, I end up looking confused -- ain't that just how it goes?}

I woke up this morning and I had wash and go hair. It still looks fantastic!

The place is Preferred Salon in Hoffman Estates, and I wish I had known of this place about eight years ago. They do not have a website but I made sure to write a glowing review of the place when I looked for them in the online yellow pages.

I would absolutely trust this place with color or any other process. They also do waxing and I might add, they never ever mentioned this service to me. Outstanding!
