Older guy gets hair reboot

by davewe

I've had my hair cut at salons before but they always asked what I wanted done, I always said to just do it the way it is but shorter. This time I decided I would ask for recommendations. I did my due diligence and decided to go to Defining Image. I asked Ellery what he thought and he gave me his recommendations as far as the cut. I then asked him about coloring the grey. I've never done this before and was hesitant. He put me at ease.

Watching Ellery cut my hair, I could tell immediately I was in the hands of a master. Not just the wham bam kind of cuts I usually get. He's also a woodworking (as am I) and I suspect that accounts for his meticulous nature. The haircut is the best I've ever gotten! Why didn't I know about this when I was younger and had all my hair?

Then it came time for the color. His apprentice (I can't remember his name - sorry!) did the coloring. I was nervous but just went with it, telling myself "it's only hair." When we were done and it really didn't take very long, it looked very natural. In fact, I remarked that the hair looked very similar to the color I had maybe 15 years before.

Ellery turned me on to some hair products to use and I was set.

Just ran into my neighbors. Their first comment - "nice haircut." They couldn't figure out what was different and I told them I'd had it colored. They really hadn't realized - just knew they liked it. Exactly the effect I was looking for.

So, in short, a great experience!

  • Pros: Everything was great
  • Cons: Nothing

run don't walk!

by recutified

After enduring a bad shag a'la'Florence Henderson for the last year care of a very sweet stylist who was nonetheless doing my do no favors, I decided it was time for a breakup. After reading the rave reviews here I booked an appointment w/Laura and I could not be happier.

I feared the worst: bad cut, bad attitude, something actually worse than the current bad cut I was sporting. Instead...

Laura was sweet, unpretentious and this is the best cut I've had maybe...ever?!! I went out the night of my cut and my friends pronounced me "recutified" and compared my swirls to Venus de Milo's. And, having just stepped out of the shower and styled I can honestly say I have never worked so little for a cut to look so good. No more flat iron, a miracle!
