When it comes to getting your hair colored, it is always a bit scary trying out a new salon… Especially when you are blonde. Blonde hair can easily look brassy or, for lack of a better word, trashy. So when I was approached by George The Salon to come in for a service I was hesitant at first but I went with my gut and agreed to give them a shot.
The building is on the ever ritzy Rush street and as the elevator doors opened up to the salon I understood instantly why they had chosen the location. The salon is classy and chic without being unnapproachable. As I stepped in I was greeted by a super sweet and friendly staff which I LOVE. There is nothing worse than walking into a place of business where you are about to spend several hours (not to mention a couple hundred dollars) and having the employees stick their noses in the air in your general direction.
After being offered every type of beverage and an amazing spread of magazines I sat down to meet with Sarah who would be highlighting my hair. She was super patient while I rambled on about how I like my color. Her fine talent for hair was matched by her personality. She was so cool! My hair came out beautifully. Nice and bright and blonde with strawberry blonde undertones, just like I asked for. My highlights were followed by a stellar blow out and delightful conversation with Mohammed. His handy work on my hair lasted for days.
All in all I had a wonderful experience at George The Salon and would certainly go back.
