More about MOP (Homewood)

When I first walked into Mop, I instantly feel in love with the atmosphere--elegant but not stuffy. The chandeliers, wallpaper, and tall framed mirrors could sway to the formal side but instead come off as hip and tasteful. The place is tiny (there's just enough room for the stylists and a small seating area) and cozy, just right for some well deserved pampering. My stylist was Kara, and she looked polished and professional, dressed in black from head-to-toe. (I asked, and all the stylists coordinate what color they will wear for different days of the week/seasons.) My angular bob from my last cut had grown out a bit and was looking shaggy, so I asked for that to be reshaped and for a bang trim. Kara took time with the cut, and although my bangs turned out shorter than I would have liked, she worked with them until I was satisfied. I love the bob (better than my first!) and the styling products Mop uses are not overly perfume-y and worked great. I had a 50% off coupon (thanks salonfly!), and the total came to $38, so I would guess that Kara usually charges $70+ for a woman's shampoo, cut, and style. ( P.S. If you like my 'do and decide to give Mop and Kara a try, tell them I sent you--for every three referrals you earn a free hair cut!)
