6 reviews for Weeds A Hair Salon
After trying several salons, I have found THE ONE!
Rachel gave me exactly what I wanted and asked for (an updated cut and highlights). The last time I had highlights, I told my former hairdresser to not make them so light... when it fades, it gets brassy and I also asked her not to put tons of streaks in the front. I ended up coloring over the $140 color bill.
But Rachel gave me the perfect highlights! Everyone has given me compliments! I love it!!!
I even sent my best friend there, too- and she loves her cut!
Awesome salon!! Rachel is fantastic and I loooove her! I'd been looking for a reasonably priced salon for a long time. This place is great, I took off one star cause I think my color job was better the first couple of times I went here (I think the color was a little richer) but I certainly don't dislike what I got this go around. Oh what I would give for a cut and color under $100, I really might consider signing over my first born, but Weeds comes mighty close.
Alright men, listen up: The folks at this salon are awesome to hangout with. Nancy is a certified barber, comes equipped with barber chair and accoutrements, as well as conversation and wit. Fun to hang out with every 6 weeks and does great hair. As for the fairer sex, both Nancy and Kelly do a terrific job getting the 'do done. Kelly recently did a "Locks of Love" cut with my wife, who's been getting great compliments about the look. All done in a comfortable environment with PARKING. Sweet.
After living with this haircut for two weeks I am forced to downgrade my review to 3 stars.
I feel it's too ordinary and too bland and I don't feel the cut expresses my inner fabulosity and quirkiness enough.
I told my hairdresser that I wanted a rockin' haircut because I was going to the Democratic Convention.
But my hair belongs at the Republican Convention.
UPDATE SEPT. 9: Last night the shop's owner fixed my haircut and although she didn't know what a "fashion mullet" was, she did a great approximation of one. My hair is now sort of a pixie-mullet hybrid which works for me (see my profile pic). Four stars.

Five stars for Nancy. I just got my hair cut 5 hours ago and she somehow knew what I wanted despite… Read more »
I have curly hair, and curly hair is REALLY hard to cut. And I always want something funky, which makes it really hard to find a good hairdresser. Once I find a hairdresser I like, I never switch. And I switched for Nancy.
I visited her when a friend of mine was putting on a benefit for Locks of Love. A good cause was worth a little risk...potentially a large risk... in deviating from my current stylist. I liked him. Dependable.
I said to Nancy, "Nancy, I want something funky." (Hey if you're going to take the plunge, you may as well put it all out there. It can't be that bad right?!! (I know, I know it can. Once I let my stoned friend cut my hair and I had to go straight to the salon it was so bad. I shudder to remember.))
Anyway, I said to Nancy, "Nancy, I want something funky." And for the first time ever, I got a hair suggestion that blew my mind!! Like short in the back with long curls going down my back and it was insane and I said, "um...a little tooo funky." And what resulted was the PERFECT HAIRCUT. It was funky but in a subtle way that made it versatile for many different looks. Short if I want. Long if I want. Perfect.
This last time I had Nancy cut my hair, I said frantically mid-cut, "Wait, but what if it looks too strange?!!" I was feeling like maybe it was going to look too strange. And she said, ever so matter-of-factly, "We'll fix it."
It didn't look strange. It looked hot like it always does. Nancy's great. She listens, she suggests and she delivers. And she's at Weeds.
Weeds is awesome, btw. They sell Bumble & Bumble. The salon is adorable. The owner obviously has a great eye for decoration; she even has that black and white cow patterned broom I've been eying for so long, but won't ever buy because my kitchen is red & orange not black & white. But it fits in so well at this salon, that I don't think I'll have to eye it any longer, I can just appreciate it when I go there.
And OMG they have a parking lot!!
This place is the best! I am really picky when it comes to cut and color. I have thick hair that is really hard to cut and nearly impossible to color...but Kelly at Weeds is great, and makes it look great everytime...plus everyone who works there is super super nice. I have recommended this place to tons of friends.
