Discovered this gem when helping my sister find a salon for her wedding. First, I have to mention that they were incredibly accommodating of our super early schedule on what we later learned was Sarah's birthday.
My sister went in for a trial far in advance because she knows she's super picky and wanted to be sure she was happy with it. Melissa styled her hair and absolutely nailed it. When people see the pictures we have back so far everyone gushes about her hair, she was gorgeous!
Between Sarah and Melissa styling the bridal party's hair, and a single make-up artist who's name has escaped me, they did an amazing job. I can't decide if I am more impressed by their work or the relaxed, friendly atmosphere they created for us; it was a perfect start to the day. It honestly felt like we were chatting with old friends when we'd actually just met them. I had to tell my mom it was time to go or she would have sat and talked to them all day!
I was so happy with Fluid Hair and Sarah as a stylist that I have switched salons and my sister did the same! Sarah is an expert at what she does, and I feel like she really "gets" what I want. I have seen a few reviews praising Fluid for educating clients about their hair, which I have now experienced too. I was so impressed when Sarah showed me how to give my hair volume when drying it... genius!
I honestly can't say enough good things about Fluid Hair. They were a huge part of my sister's wedding and continue to impress. Keep it up, ladies!
I got a groupon for the Fluid Hair, I thought I could at least give it a shot and see. A month later I call them to book an appointment, and leave a message on the answering machine. I missed their call back because of my meeting, but I immediately gave them a call again, got answering machine and left another message. They don't call me back.
I figure they are busy and are saving on the receptionist, but are present on facebook, so let's message them there. I send a message asking for an appointment the week after, any day except Thursday.
I get a message back saying they booked me for Thursday!?!
I answer that there was a misunderstanding, and I need an appointment on another day. And I never hear back from them. What kind of behavior is this? Is this some sort of joke? I still have that groupon I paid for.
Extensions and foils.... Came out as a blonde bombshell!
It was also more than a pleasure to spend a couple hours there. The atmosphere was really inspiring and creative. The people were warm and welcoming. The hair education was one of the best parts! I can actually do the upkeep on my amazing new locks!
I have never gotten such an ear full about hair care before in my life. Why has no one told me what's going on with my hair or how to fix it. Love these girls!
