After years of searching, found my stylist!
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

04/20/2008 Posted by Ginissima

I am one of those people guilty of "stylist cheating" as I couldn't find one that I liked. After going for a facial in February (gift from my bf) and the overall positive experience, I was committed to trying their salon. Through an online review, I found out about Sonja and am not sure where to begin speaking her praises. Personable, down-to-earth and friendly, Sonja is foremost an expert stylist and top professional. In addition to a FANTASTIC haircut that complemented my face and personality, she is a wonderful colorist. I am so happy that I found a stylist that I can "grow" with and trust. Pyara is fortunate to have such a person on its team. One word of "caution." I am happy to spend money on quality products and gave/am giving the Aveda line a try. I purchased nearly (except one because they were out of it) all the products that were recommended to me after my facial and have had some negative reactions to it (my forehead and cheeks got all spotty and red). Nonetheless, after my haircut yesterday, I purchased some of the hair products to give it a try. Hopefully, I'll be luckier with them. Regardless, I've already booked my next hair appointment (I don't think I've ever booked my next appointment in advance with any stylist) and am looking forward to it!

Pros: relaxing atmosphere, professional staff, hours

Cons: parking
