Bliss The Salon

Wonderful Hair By A Wonderful Stylist.

by alyrmc at Citysearch

I found Bliss after a long search for a new stylist. While I'm very paranoid about going somewhere new and getting a butcher job, I also hate when I see a new stylist and after a few visits end up with the same hair cut no matter what pictures or requests provide. This was never the case with Bliss.

I found them on citysearch and called to make an appointment with Julie. It is hard to get an actual person on the phone because of their limited staff/bustling business, but I've never had to wait long for a very friendly call back after I leave a voicemail.

During my first visit, Julie was very warm, friendly, and welcoming...which is awesome when you are a new client coming into a tight-knit salon (like me). She was excellent at understanding what I wanted, and more importantly, what I didn't want. I have very wavy and thick hair that doesn't always work with the short hair styles that I desire. I usually have to style the heck out of my hair to make it look decent. But Julie gave me the first cut that actually looked awesome even if I just washed and let it air dry. When I returned a second time she gave me a gorgeous cut with some dramatic bangs that any other stylist might have have toned down or botched completely. She is a great listener and is really good at providing a cut based on what the client is looking for. I never felt rushed, mistreated, uncomfortable or ignored. I hope anyone looking for a new salon will give Bliss a try. It's a wonderful experience for a great value.

*And for the one-star reviews. I hope people realize that 3 one-star reviews in a huge batch of perfect, glowing ones might indicate that a few people will never be pleased with anything, rather than the quality of the salon itself.

• Pros: Awesome stylists, Great Parking, Listens to clients, Warm and Friendly atmosphere.
• Cons: You do have to call at least a week ahead of time, but they will do whatever they can to work you in!

personalized service

by juliebliss22 at Citysearch

Hi, this is Julie, co-owner of Bliss. I just wanted to thank all of our wonderful clients who left us such nice reviews. For those of you who left us bad reviews, I am sorry we did not meet your expectations. I would like to think of our salon as a friendly, and down to earth place. If you are looking for a Kenneths or Penzones, we are not that place! We are a very small salon (only 3 stylists) We do not have set hours, as we all book our own appointments. We can be much more flexable this way. We also work by appointment only, and usually book up at least a week in advanced. We all have at least 18 years of experience. If you are looking for a small personalized salon, please call us.

• Pros: experience, parking
• Cons: we do not take same day appointments

doesn't listen to client

by columbus1234 at Citysearch

I've tried many salons, and I cannot seem to fine one that I like. So through city search I found bliss. I was excited after reading all of the good reviews, but after going to bliss I was very disappointed. The stylist didn;t listen to what I wanted for my hair and did what she thought was right. I also felt rushed. Wasn't at all what I expected.

• Pros: none
