Amazing!. I had the pleasure of meeting Devin for a haircut and he is SO talented! He is the only person I have ever had cut my hair just the way I saw it in my head. My hair before, which was lifeless, long and heavy, now has so much movement and dimension - he even colored my hair for my first time ever! It turned out so beautiful and subtle, he understood that I needed something fantastic yet low maintenance. He is truly an artist. I felt like a new woman when I walked out those doors! I would recommend this salon to anybody and everybody. In addition to the talented staff, it has such a great vibe and everybody is so friendly - you will immediately feel at ease. A+++!…
Emily is the best!. Emily at Malstrom Salon is so talented and friendly, I will never go to anyone else! I used to go to one person for my haircuts and another for my color (yes, I am picky!). Now that I've found Emily, I can go to just one person for both, and even get my nails shellacked by her! I enthusiastically recommend her and Malstrom Salon to anyone who hasn't been! You will be pleasantly surprised- I was.…
Awesome cut and color. I have been going to Trish at Malstrom Salon for over 10 years. She is awesome. In my opinion, she has special talent in coloring hair. I am a brunette. Trish has colored my hair with summery carmel/blonde highlights and with more rich dark tones in the winter. She always gets it right . . . this is not easy to do! I have never left disappointed in the color, or cut! I would totally recommend her.…
Best Salon in Town. I have been coming to Malstrom Salon for 4 years now and have never even thought about going to another. I go to Amber for eyebrow waxing and haircuts and she has never failed to amaze me with her talent. The other stylists are extremely kind and talented, so visiting any of them would be well worth your time. It is easy to access, either by car (free parking out front and in back) or by trax.…
Damaging Highlights.
I went to Amber for highlights awhile back. She was nice, but did not listen well and interrupted a lot.
I was very careful to explain that my hair was already damaged from highlights put in my hair by an inexperienced Aveda stylist, and that I wanted lots of base color showing with definite streaks of highlights. I showed photographs and a sketch of what I wanted, plus a bulleted list of what I did and didn't want so that I would get the highlights I wanted and not have damage on top of damage.
Despite the careful attempts to describe my needs, Amber put the highlights so close together that my hair ended up with a weird overall tint instead of streaks. It was heavily damaged a second time, and people asked me what had happened to it.
I have been getting highlights in other states for many years, but only in Utah have stylists put the highlights so close together that they damage the hair and don't look like highlights.
Amber had many years of experience, so I was surprised and disappointed at these results. She would greatly benefit from listening, not interrupting or resisting what the client is saying.
I have since had much better luck with highlights and cuts by Cassie Dean at Zazou Salon, who was able to highlight my hair the way I wanted it done and without causing more damage.…
