I'm a pretty low-maintenance gal, so hair isn't really on the top of my To-Do list. Still, when I find myself seriously thinking, \"Maybe I should shave my head,\" I know it's time for a trim. Luckily, a coworker of mine is a student here and needed a model anyway, so it worked out for both of us. \n\nI was told to park in the deck behind the building, but the deck was completely full. I used to live in South End so it was easy for me to find parking nearby, but it still made me late and there was no back-up plan provided by the salon. When I apologized and said I was late because of the parking garage being full, the counter girls just kind of shrugged and said \"Yeah, we know.\" This is really my only gripe. \n\nMy haircut went great, Chelsa did a great job shampooing me and recommending products. She got some directions and advice from her instructor about the style I wanted, and we were off. I had brought my Kindle with me so I did some reading and Facebooking and let her concentrate. She got some more approvals at different points during the haircut. Both the instructors nearby and other students were very hospitable, asking me how I was and offering me drinks.\n\nIt took right around 2 and a half hours, which is about what I was expecting. It's definitely a teaching salon so if you're not prepared for students who are learning, this might not be for you. But for wash-and-wear, low-drama people like myself, it was a perfect fit. I'll definitely be back!
