Great Staff, Friendly service and Kelly is a sweetheart.
Lavonne for Brazilian wax - Lavonne does a GREAT job with Brazilian waxes. I had tried at least 4 different places for a Brazilian wax since coming to Bloomington and until I went to Lavonne I hadn't found anyone that I was happy with. Lavonne is quick, professional, a perfectionist about removing all the hair, and doesn't cause unnecessary amounts of pain (though, let's face it, what Brazilian wax is pain-free?).
Hair International sells top quality products, which gives the false impression that this salon is top-notch. However, it's stylists are unprofessional. I saw Patty Lewis for a hair cut and color. I was explicit in telling her that I wanted her to take off no more than an inch and a half of my bicep-length hair. She took off five full inches, leaving my hair above my shoulders for the first time in three years. I told her that I wanted absolutely no gold tones in my ash dark blonde hair color, because my hair easily picks up gold. She insisted (at which point I wish that I had walked out) on putting in gold. Sure enough, my hair turned golden, and she tried to dye it once again, with no success. I left that day in tears, with hair that was three different colors in the sunlight--red, blonde, and a weird mix that appeared orange. The owner attempted to fix it (gratis) after I called to complain, but was only marginally successful with repairing the color; nothing, of course, could restore my hair length. Also, Patty dropped the names of other clients, including high administrators at IU, giving out details of information they had said to her. It was extraordinarily unprofessional. If you value your privacy, or value a stylist who listens to you, avoid Hair International at all costs!
Their pedicures are so amazing, took care of my swollen prego feet better than massages I had. great for haircuts too.
