Lady friends, let me share my most guilty of pleasures. Her name is Jill, and she is my hair whisperer, and she hails from the mecca of an Aveda Salon, called Capretti and Co, if you're local you are required by me, the law maker of what you deserve, to visit at least once, good luck never returning.

You can look forward to a fresh beverage followed by a consultation with your stylist (the most real consultation of your hair...ever), and wrap up with a dry oil relaxation treatment...hold on, a mini massage...right...can I stop there?! Oh yes, and then the most amazing hair experience of your life, I strongly suggest you get your color done here, whatever you have now will seem like the fast food version when you're done.
We cannot all have Jill, but I can promise you this, every single employee at this salon is angelic. This place is gorgeous, calm, warm, VERY WELCOMING (you feel like the top client from the moment you step through the door), and packed full of healthy for your products. I'll spare you my obnoxious rant on the skin care products, let's just say, NOTICEABLE. DIFFERENCE. One other I thing I'm a big fan of, it's not chatty. I never feel like I'm drenched in gossip and negativity. Honestly, each stylist is involved with his/her client, it's a real one on one focus, this is not your typical salon!
Why is this place such a big deal you ask, well, if I hadn't had faith and listened to my friend Melissa's advice and tried an Aveda salon, I would still be hair miserable. After trying EVERYTHING and I do mean everything, I met Jill and she introduced me to Invati, a hair system (I only use shampoo and conditioner), that helps to lessen hair loss. I mean my hair was thin to begin with, but all of a sudden it was scary thin. It's about 6 months later since she and I really talked about it, and I have hair that I didn't imagine I'd have again, and hopefully it will continue to get better. She takes my situation so seriously, that she is truly extra gentle and does exactly what I told her I do at home (no flat iron, low heat, and gentle, gentle,gentle) I didn't think she caught all my little "things," but I noticed she stopped using the flat iron, held the dryer farther, and used low heat....thank you Jill, for understanding how important hair can be to a person.
What you really want to know:
Price: It varies - I've heard $85 full service and up, but you just have to call and ask around in your area, I'm in a fairly high priced area, but I'd lose a leg once or twice a year to go, it's that worth it.
(yes I only color that often, I'm a natural blonde, I win)

I'm not just promoting a friend or my salon, I am sharing with you something that is provided not just by the amazing owners of the salon I chose to go to locally, but by the brand, Aveda. They specifically train their users for their products, it becomes their science. It blows my mind, the way they can specifically formulate colors, the way my hair is healthy and shiny post highlight (WHAT?!). These stylists are not your average stylist and the products are not just fancy words that equal more damage on your hair. Not that any stylist isn't amazingly talented, I personally have had a whole world of difference in this department by experiencing their culture. If I could twist your arm with words I would, but on this one you all just have to trust me one visit worth, for yourself...check below, I found incentives, do these work on bribing you???
(there's a free invati trio pack offer in there, AND a treatment )
