I moved here from NJ...where I used to go to this amazing salon called Bangz...which had a cutting edge sense of style. I was accustomed to paying a lot for my haircuts, which I have found is a totally worthwhile investment, so when I moved to JAX in June I told myself I would search for my replacement salon and price wouldn't matter (too much at least). People recommended supercuts, and a number of other chain salons, but I refused to give in, due to a traumatizing experience that drove me away from chain salons. I went to the local pages on Yahoo and found Envy. There was one review, which said that "you must go to Carrie" since they were so pleased with their hair. So, I gave it a shot and boy was I pleased. First off, these are the most real and relaxed women. While some reviews say they are vulgar/potty mouths...I say they are the perfect blend of professional, caring for their clients, while not compromising their personality just to fit a mold a make a buck. Yeah, they swore a couple times, so what? We're all adults there...and they were so friendly and full of life! Carrie gave me personalized attention while having a complete consultation on what I wanted and making sure we had the plan straight before even shampooing and holding the scissors to my hair. She even went out of her way to show me her vision from a magazine to make sure we were on the same page of what the final product might look like. They also offer complimentary refreshments from coffee and tea, to water and lemonade. Currently, they are located inside another salon due to the fact that they are building a new salon and haven't been able to move into it yet. I will continue to go back to Carrie for her skill and to this salon for the exciting women; and I am eager to see the vibe and personality of their new salon when they are in their own space. If you are looking for a new salon, or you just want to treat yourself once...GO TO ENVY HAIR SALON!!! Live a little...you can't beat the price for the quality of work you are getting...you will not be disappointed.
