    I went to ARCS for the first time yesterday and omg it was busy! It was B.O.B. (beauty on a budget) day so it made more sense why there were tons of moms and kids everywhere. I was a walk-in, and they were extremely swamped, so I asked the very nice receptionist if they would possibly be able to fit me in that evening. She made an appointment for me for an hour later and got my information. I returned an hour later - it was still swamped. Had a bit of a wait. The only waiting area seating they had was a giant, low to the ground white ottoman covered in long, tube shaped pillows - it was covered in kids and a few adults, very "cozy". I'm not complaining, at least I had a place to sit, and someone (I'm guessing he was a manager) brought me a cucumber water in a fancy glass. =)

    My stylist was Lexi and she was amazing! She gave me a short tour and some info about the salon, then sat me down for a consultation. I kind of knew what I wanted but didn't know all the technical haircutting terms - thankfully Lexi understood what my hair goals were and set up a plan of attack. Next I got a really amazing shampoo/conditioner/neck-head-shoulder massage in the wash house. This place has low lighting, soothing music, and amazing smelling products. I felt like I was in a spa, without the spa price!

    Got back to my styling chair, overheard some salon gossip, got an amazing haircut - love the hairdryers that come out of the ceiling! Lexi got my hair nice and dry, then finished it up with a flat iron and some products and I was good to go! The atmosphere was really fun and the employees all seem to love their jobs, which is great for customer service! Check out was a breeze, and since I was a walk in (technically) my service was half price! That is amazing considering I have LOOOOONNNNGGGG hair; most places would have charged me the same price for a halfway decent haircut with no massage for my hair length alone!  I will definitely be back for some color, but maybe not on a Wednesday - too many people, kind of claustrophobic.

    Arcs Salon is the best salon experience I have ever had. I have been to a couple different salons in brookside but decided to try out Arcs sense it's a little closer to home. If you are looking for a spa experience at a salon price than Arcs is for you! I paid $35 and I received a friendly greeting at the door, direction to what my next step was, a tour of the building, offered beverages, full shampoo, head-neck-shoulder massage, cut, rinse, and full style! The other salons I have been to are good... they shampoo and give a head massage but I paid the same price at Arcs Salon and received so much more!

    The stylist are all friendly and very trendy, reminds me of Urban Outfitters only with tattoos, which is awesome!

    I will be returning to Arcs for all my future salon needs.

    Mandy was my stylist, just FYI.

    The salon has a vast and contemporary interior. Upon entering I was greeted, offered a beverage, and escorted to a spacious couch in the waiting area.  After my stylist introduced herself, I was taken to the "changing room" where I swapped my shirt for a black robe.

    I was expecting a haircut, but received a lot more that made the whole experience a very pleasant one and memorable.  The washing station is located in a dimly-lit room with a soothing music playing in the background.  Not only will your hair get squeaky-clean there, the scalp, neck, and shoulder massage will make you feel like you are in a spa. There are no other places where I've been to which have spoiled me so much with extra services.

    The stylist that worked with me was very skillful and attentive. She consulted with me about my goals, and relying on her instincts and experience gave me exactly what I wanted without me having to elaborate on what I needed. I'm a guy, and just want my hair to be shorter with some kind of style.  Mandi knew what to do, and she did it right.

    Excellent service, great value and lovely atmosphere is what one should expect from Arc's.  I'm impressed, and I'll definitely be back.

    Did I ask for a hair consultation? No.
    Did I ask if I could take my shirt off and wrap a robe around myself? No.
    Did I ask for a 10-15 minute head/neck/shoulder massage? No.
    Did I love every second of it? .....YES! DEAR GOD YES!

    Okay, for real, what the heck is going on at Arcs? This was not just a hair cut. This was a Follicle Event on my head! From the awesome stark, glossy, white circular room with a sofa to match to the end of the whole experience, this was 5 dang stars! She brought me to the changing room to change out of my shirt and wrap a thin robe around myself. She then took me to a chair to talk about what I wanted to do with my hair. Very nice. She then schooled me on the Color Station, incase I ever wanted to get my hair colored. Then she took me to the wash room. This is a dimly lit room with soothing therapy music in the background. Here I sat down, leaned back and let her do her shampoo/massage magic all over my head! She used the minty shampoo that makes your head really cold. She massaged my head very slowly and methodically for at least 10 minutes. After washing the shampoo out, she sat me up and gave me a neck massage and a shoulder massage. It was FANTASTIC! She then took me to the chair and went to town on the hair cut, being very particular and sculptural with her sheers and blades. She took time and really thought about it. We had some chit-chat, banter, if you will. Then she took me back to the wash room to rinse the lose hair. No salon has ever done that for me. After she rinsed my hair, she put a very warm cloth over my face to steam my face. She pressed it on my face, did a little face massage, and wiped my face. She took me back to the chair, totally styled my new dew, and I then went to put my shirt back on.

    This whole EXPERIENCE was only $35 dollars, I tipped $10. You can get varying priced cuts depending on who you use and what exactly you want. If you don't have anywhere you go regularly for hair cuts/color/styles or you don't like your current place, go here. Do yourself a favor and go here. My sister in law has been cutting my hair for over 6 years and she is THE BOMB! For real, she is amazing and I trust her. But she has moved to Texas and I can't use her anymore. I was worried about where to go and I am SO glad I went to Arcs. When this sister in law is away, this is where I play!

    I went to ARCS yesterday because I saw all of the good reviews. To be honest, I was not impressed. The color came out good, but the haircut was just blah. I had even brought a picture to show what I wanted. I like leaving the salon feeling awesome with my new haircut and style and unfortunately this was not the case. I wanted to like it but even after I went home and styled it myself it was just boring. I won't be going back.

    before arriving I spoke to the manager on the phone about the price and was advised starting out it would be $75.00 I clearly asked so like $100? She said oh yeah well after I had my hair done the stylist apolgized and said she would have me come back in on Wednesday and fix my hair color and cut. I still have roots and my hair has stripes in it. When I went to pay they charged me a $190.00!!! I asked the manager she said DeeDee is a level 4 stylist and I explained she told me I was seeing DeeDee before I even came in and was told the cost was $100.00. So not only did they lie to me they messed my hair up!!! I now have to have my hair redone Tuesday to fix it and that is damaging to color bleach twice in one week.
