Three of my friends recommended Casi so I sent in my daughter and husband first. She changed my husband's hair style and took off some years in the process. They were happy so I went. When I left the wild salon ( they were in the process of shooting a commercial when I was there) I left with the best hair cut I'd ever had. The only downer was that my husband was out of town so I couldn't show it off to him. I would highly recommend Casi Vaughn of Hair Reflections.
Yes, this one is in Columbiana. Where's that? Why would I want to drive all the way out there? Just read on...(review courtesy of SupaFly Melissa A.)
Lots of praise for Sanctuary's newest addition - Richard Blair! Check out these testimonials...My appointment was last Saturday and it was WONDERFUL! Richard was marvelous--great conversation, great personality, I completely felt comfortable with him and trusted him with my "do"! He added some color to my sad, natural brown I was sportin'. I feel much more professional, stylish and ready for the summer! Oh, btw, Richard wanted to make sure everyone knows he's not one of those "froo-froo stylists" just because he's from NY. :) He was very down to earth and personable. I will definitely be returning to him for my next visit to the salon. Taylor P.
I went and saw Richard a few weeks ago - he was fabulous and so is Sanctuary! He updated my 'do exactly how I wanted it, and I plan on going back to see him in a few weeks. The staff seemed very friendly and the salon has a wonderfully hip, but laid back, atmosphere - very comfortable! Rose K.
I got a cut and highlights, and Richard did a fab job. The atmosphere is great at Sanctuary, they serve juice and water, which is nice. I would love to have a glass of wine while waiting and getting my hair cut/highlighted, though. It is just a nice feeling being pampered and relaxing! Thank you very much! I am a beautiful young woman again! Brandy G.
I just wanted to send a HUGE thank you for introducing me to Richard at Sanctuary. I bounded in two weeks ago with my gift certificate in hand and had a wonderful experience! The salon itself, as you know, is beautiful and everyone was very friendly. I met Richard and he immediately consulted with me on what we were to do with my short locks. The was definitely work to be done to correct the problem I had going on in the back of my hair from having the "Locks of Love" pony tail cut off! I even let him color my naturally blonde (though dull from winter) locks for the first time in my life and it was fabulous! Jennifer S.
Richard was amazing. When I had gotten to Sanctuary, he was waiting on me and came and sat down beside me to talk. I had an idea about what I wanted but then he sat and started flipping through a magazine and we found the look. I got a haircut like Courtney Cox's, tapered edge look. He was VERY thorough and did both wet and dry cutting. I would recommend him to anyone! He shared some very neat styling tips with me too! I already have two upcoming appointments with him. Thanks for giving me this opportunity. I am very pleased with my cut and my new stylist. Laura S.
SO NICE I WENT TWICE. My stylist, Richard Blair, and the other Sanctuary staff make a salon visit very pleasant. Two weeks after my haircut, I went back for more services and plan to schedule the next visit soon. Tania A.
This past Saturday, I went for a cut and style with Richard at Sanctuary. While I am still adjusting to the cut (shorter than anything I’ve had since 2nd grade, and I still cannot style it like he did, despite his showing me more than once,) I really liked Richard. He is down to earth and really listens to what you have to say; he will do what is right for you, not just what he likes to do. Because I was the last appointment of the day, he truly spent time with me and tried to show me how to style my hair, (despite my telling him I knew I couldn’t replicate it.)
It was a great experience! the stuff there was very nice, they offered something to drink, the shampooing was combined with a massage of the head... absolutely great! And the haircut as well is fantastic - i really love it! Richard is really worth the money - of course this time I got it for free, but I'll definitely stay his client... forever!!! Actually, i already send my husband to him last week - with the same result: a great haircut received in a great atmosphere. Nicole H.
My experience at the Sanctuary with Shaun was wonderful....What a great salon...No doubt I will be returning to him for many years to come...I have already recommended him to everyone I know...I now have a great new stylist....What a relief! Erin S.
The people there were so nice.... the salon was down to earth and it was like a piece of heaven dropped right down here in 
Some stylists just know. They know you really don't have any idea what you hair "should" look like - and they know that what you're used to is all wrong.
We need your story. Tell us about your best (or worst) salon experience. It doesn't matter where it happened - we just want to know what you've liked (and what you wish you could forget).

Who in the heck is Lamar? Today, I (Jason) met with Logan Greene at his salon (Logan's Village Salon on SoHo) to discuss getting listed with salonfly. Unfortunately, when he answered the door, I cheerfully greeted him with "Hey, Lamar".
We get three types of calls at salonfly:
What the heck is "diamond-tip" microdermabrasion? How do I get rid of these greys? And why has Bert (yes, Sesame Street "Bert") waited so long to get a brow wax?
Salon M2 (pronounced M-squared) was just profiled in Birmingham Magazine's "Style Guy" column (click here to view). The folks at M2 are some of the nicest we've met in the industry. If you've recently been, and would like to share your experience, just post a comment.
Sorry, but we're suckers for cute since having a baby girl. She's still a bit young for a trip to the salon, but we suspect that Sweet & Sassy will be a favorite. If you've been, post a comment and let us know how it went.

I've been cut at a number of places over the past few months, but I keep going back to Lisa Cordes at Orbit Salon. And I'm going to recommend this place to all the dudes out there that are too cool (i.e., nervous) about going to a salon, as well as the ladies in their life that wish they'd stop going to Supercuts (sorry, Supercuts, but it just ain't so).
