Alright, so here's the deal. You want a good haircut? Don't go here. You want a GREAT haircut? Ok...continue. Jennifer Bradford. She can be found at Alchemy Hair Studio II. I typically get my haircut at a barber or Supercuts or wherever I happen to be driving past at the time. No matter how cheap it is, there is no reason to get a bad haircut from some cross-eyed, hair-lipped, snaggletoothed "stylist". Not only is Jennifer hot, but she'll cut your hair right the first time. And those hands...Don't even get me started on those hands. Lets just say that the shampoo is worth the price of admission alone. And unlike those big name franchise "salons", where the topic of conversation is undoubtedly some local sports team or the weather with long awkward pauses in between statements, Jennifer can actually maintain a conversation - in about a thousand languages, while she makes you look and feel better than you ever have.

I'm not sure how the woman below me had such a bad experience with Megan as the prices for cuts and colors are clearly listed on the brochures and I have never had a time with the women there when they weren't upfront with the costs. Anyway, I have had Megan cut my hair three times now, once after I had a destroyed graduated bob at an expensive salon in Marin and she was able to make it much more even and manageable. Her professionalism and technique is impeccable and having the atmosphere her chair is in makes it even better. She is a Color Master for Matrix Hair and teaches coloring classes around the country so I highly doubt she could've ruined someone's hair as they claim. Please don't let one bad review change your judgement.

I've been coming to Megan LaCore at the Alchemy Hair Studio twice a month for almost a year now and I have yet to have a bad experience. Megan knows my hair better than I do and always finds ways to keep me looking good. From a guy's perspective Megan has styled my hair so that it is extremely easy to fix it up in the morning without having to use globs of gel or other product. Her knowledge of color is far beyond mastery and I would recommend Megan to anyone, both male and female, who is looking to get away from those cookie cutter hair places at a reasonable price.

The salon itself is always clean and the receptionists are very polite. The appointment reminder system via email is an awesome addition and I would recommend Alchemy to anyone who is looking to walk away with a great hairstyle.

Megan has been my stylist since she was back in Cosmetology school! She was great then and she's still great now after all these years! I wouldn't trust my hair to anyone else! She's always up on the newest colors and styles, always suggesting something new that always looks great on me. I always get compliments after I've seen Megan.

I went to Megan LaCore and made the mistake of not asking how much the cut and color would be before -- it was over $200 and I hated it!!! She didn't cut it how I asked and she kept trying to convince me it looked good. I went back a week later to have her fix the color which was so gross and when I left it was almost worse the second time. I finally went to another salon and the color was finally normal. However, I had to pay again for the mistakes that Megan made. She just wouldn't listen -- she had her own agenda and it was aweful!!
