Over Priced and Overrated!!

by napoliroma

Since I had to be in Vegas while pregnant I decided to treat myself to a new hairstyle and thought this Salon would be a good choice. Boy was I way wrong. I got the $110 package that includes consultation, shampoo, cut and style. I was excited to get a well trained pro to give me a new do. First of all I was there on time and there were at least 5 people behind the main counter laughing and cutting up, then I waited for 15 minutes for my stylist who was one of the dudes cutting up just making his customer wait. The consultation was a joke, he really had no professional advice and didn't seem to care about what I wanted. The shampooing was rough on my neck and he managed to get my shirt all wet. He was rough with brushing my hair and didn't socialize with me at all. I was not offered a beverage and when he was done cutting and drying he didn't even style my hair! I mentioned that it should have come with a style so he did a quick side part with some hairspray, didn't ask me how I liked it and just took off the cape and walked me to the counter to pay the outrageous price for nothing. I could have gotten better customer service and the same cut at fantastic sams or something. Keep in mind that Vegas has so many tourists these salons don't count on return customers so don't expect to get top notch service. The MGM is great but their salon quality is poor. The only good thing I have to say is that the atmosphere leading to the entrance is nice but does not match what you get when you walk through the salon doors.

CRISTOPHES STAFF IS AWESOME!

by newsworthy

Cristophe salon was recommended and now I know why. I thought it would be stuffy and not my style because it is a well known salon in the hair world, but that was far from the case. The atmosphere was sleek but warm, the champagne was definitely a nice touch, and the staff is professional with a great sense of humor. I was lucky I just happen to be in the salon when was of my favorite shows (Queer Eye For The Straight Guy) was being filmed. That was a an extra treat! Best of all, I look amazing.
