The Alchemist Salon

I had my hair done at The Alchemist for a wedding. The women working with us were friendly, and the salon was a very nice environment. The prices were totally reasonable.
I showed my stylist a picture of the hair style I wanted and asked if that would be doable with my hair, and she said yes. However, the end result really looked nothing like the picture I had showed her. It was odd, it just seemed like she hadn’t really looked at the picture that I showed her.
Also, it seemed like the salon had not staffed sufficiently for our visit. I spoke with them the day before our visit and they knew how many of us to expect, but there were not enough staff on hand to complete all of the services we had scheduled before another wedding party came in.
I want to like the Alchemist, I really do. My advice to future customers is to make sure for sure they’ll have enough staff on hand if you’re preparing for a wedding, and to get super clear with the style you want. Maybe print out a picture and keep it right on the mirror while she’s styling your hair, and don’t be afraid to tell the stylist if the end result isn’t what you wanted. Overall, a somewhat disappointing experience.
