Salon Sa Haira

I found this salon while on a mad hunt for an affordable but quality place to get a cut and partial highlights. I was on a real time crunch and calling all around to see who could fit me in. Sa Haira wasn’t a top choice as it had no reviews and therefore a real gamble. But being on the time crunch I was when they said they had an available slot I took it. Lindsey did a wonderful job on the cut and color. It was exactly what I asked for. I love it! The other stylists I encountered were sweet and helpful too.
So the lost star comes from two minor but noteworthy issues. The first is relative so take it how you like. My appointment started at 10am and I didn’t leave til 115pm. That’s over 3 hours! Now I know my hair is long and medium thickness but my usual appointments in my hometown of Portland, OR are usually 2 hours. My stylist chatted a lot with other workers which doesn’t bother me except when the work on my hair slows down. The second issue was price. I confirmed on the phone twice that the cost would be $ 60 for my long, somewhat thick hair. At the end of my appt, I was charged $ 65. Because I was ready to go and Lindsey did such a good job, I didn’t cause a fuss. I had already planned to tip $ 20 so the extra fee came out of her tip anyway.
Overall, I would definitely go back if I am ever back in town.
