I cannot say enough great things about Cutting Loose. I have wanted wavy hair all my life and after talking with Jon(the owner) and showing him lots of pictures he assured me it is possible to get a perm that does not look straight out of the 1980s. I am so glad I trusted him! I have very fine, limp hair and now I can style it wavy or blow dry it straight and it still has more volume and texture than ever before. While getting my perm I was also able to see Marilyn(the other stylist) work with several clients. She is wonderful and very patient with children. A couple weeks later my three year old niece saw Marilyn to get her second ever haircut. She was very patient and when my niece got a little freaked out about the hairdryer, Marilyn was so sweet and did not push it. Because of their small size I personally felt more comfortable than I have at other places. Planning to go back and get color done as soon.
