Difficult Salon in several ways

by Sunny Day at Citysearch

I hate to write a bad review but wish I had known before used this salon. The thing the finally made me quit the salon was the parking situation. You have to use the public lots in Lexington and finding a space can be challenging. My hairdresser had to go and move my car for me when the two hours was up. The salon has a somewhat snooty atmosphere and the hairdressers seem to be intimidated by the owner, Paula. I don't get this as she seems friendly enough to the clients. However, it creates a certain atmosphere. The Salon is super expensive for what you get. On the positive side, I do believe that the haircare is good quality but you don't have to spend so much to get the same thing.

• Pros: Good Hair Care and Products
• Cons: Limited Parking, Snooty atmosphere, Expensive

Excellent Stylist But Owner Needs to Stay Behind The Scenes

by anniebirdie at Citysearch

I am in my late 40s and they don't attempt to make me look like I am in my 20s. In the four years I have been going to Blue, I have used several stylists and find that most listen carefully to what you want.

The owner, Paula definitely strives to achieve a professional atmosphere and she succeeds except for herself. She is brash and can be verbally abusive to her staff. Many days she is moody and will not greet her customers.. I have several friends who stopped going to Blue because of her and her reputation is well known. I gave the salon two stars because of her. You have to know what you are walking into. As mentioned in a previous review, Anna is a fantastic stylist

Why did I write this review now? I recently had my hair styled and Paula was in one of her moods and I almost said something to her face. But I didn't and am now taking the coward's way of expressing my frustration

• Pros: Stylist Listens , Realistic Color, Professional
• Cons: Owner, Owner, Owner and Cost

Anna, very consistent

by ReneeJ at Citysearch

Anna has been doing my hair for years and it always comes out great. Her work is consistent and she listens to what I want even though she has been doing my hair for years. The staff at Blue is very professional and I always feel comfortable. They do not have rock star attitudes like in the city.

They also carry Bare Minerals (the only makeup I can use) so I get that there too.

• Pros: staff
