on Citysearch Aug 24, 2008Patty cut my hair but didn't stack like I wanted so I asked for a quickie appointment to stack it higher and she butchered me. It was a freebee so I guess she forgot how to cut hair. My close friends have told me how bad and... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 05, 2008I am going to keep this short. I believe it would suffice to say that this salon now called Eikon Hairlounge is somewhat of a joke. After going there for about a year because it has been convenient, I am convinced that... (more)

abarone75
on Citysearch Apr 26, 2008I was skeptical of going to eikon given the "hip" nature of it. A lot of places like this give everyone the same "it girl" hair cut. I was pleasantly proven wrong. From the moment I got there, everyone was polite. My... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 04, 2008Selfishly, I'm sad to recommend the best hair person ever, LaVetta, because I'd like to keep her a secret. But I have to report that she does fantastic cuts and color that turn boring mousy hair into fab bouncy blond... (more)
