Immortal Beloved. Ashley knows how to cut curly hair, and it grows out beutifully no matter the original cut. A-maz-zing! The ambience is definately different from the usual, a bathtub vine/tree growing toward a skylight in the middle of a refurbed old garage where the huge mirrors hang from the ceiling in front of comfy salon chairs. The also have those sinks where they stand behind you to wash your hair, so much better on your neck and the head massages are to die for - nevermind the awesome stuff they use on your hair. I never leave itchy and I never have had weird color problems i've had at other places... Very frou-frou without the snobbery. The updo for my sister's wedding stayed put and looked great no matter how hot I got, it never frizzed. Expect tattoos and piercings and the best hair experience of your life. Should I ever leave, I'll have to fly back just to get my hair done!
