The Fixx Salon

Loved my hair. Priscilla did a great job. She wasn’t even done with it and I already liked it. It’s really nice in there and people know what they’re doing :)

Every experience I’ve had with this salon was negative, from never leaving with what I wanted waiting over an hour for a scheduled appointment. To add insult to injury every time I asked any questions regarding my hair I was treated like an inbacile who wasn’t worth the breath it took to answer.

Being new to Cruces I didn’t know where to go. I tried another salon twice and when I realized she really didn’t know how to do the cut I wanted I began asking around (we started with my hair below my waist… now it’s grazing my shoulders, I was running out of hair!). Many people told me to go to El Paso. finding it hard to believe there weren’t any amazing stylists here, I asked a few college age girls and they recommended The Fixx and that EVERYONE there is great! *They were right!
When I arrived at the salon I was greeted by a stylist and offered a beverage while I waited. I scheduled with Ramiro. Not only has he studied here, he also studied in CA (my home state) and other states perfecting his craft. Ramiro has a PASSION for what he does! I told him my concerns with my hair (it was heavy, uneven, etc.) and brought in a few pics of what I’d like to see. He combed through my hair to see what he had to work with/​correct and we discussed what I liked about the pics and how I would style my hair at home (curly, straight, blow dry, flat iron, styling products, etc.). Then he gave me an amazing scalp massage during my wash/​condition before getting to work on my cut. When he was done I had great layers and my hair felt like silk! He thinned out all the bulk that was driving me crazy! He just about nailed it! He had to work with what I had and I left happy. I know that with the next few cuts that we’ll get it where I want it (need to grow it out). I plan to have Ramiro as my new stylist and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone. He asks all the right questions and does a great job. The salon is aptly named as he FIXX’D my hair (I also love that it shares the name of one of my fave 80’s bands! Hee hee hee!)!!!
PS: When I arrived Jolene was finishing up a short haircut. It was adorable! I also saw her do another short cut while I was having my hair cut… I’m sending my mom to her since she rocks short hair! When the girls told me all the stylists were good, they weren’t kidding. I think you would be happy with any one of the stylists at The Fixx!

Every 4 – 5 weeks I go to see Jolene to get my FIXX and every visit I leave with the most incredible haircut and when needed color. Jolene has been cutting my hair for over 7 years. She knows what I am willing to do and not do relative to styling my hair and my lifestyle, and I never ever leave the salon feeling like the cut/​styling is something I cannot re-​create (at the amateur-​level anyway). She is a true artist whose love for what she does is exemplified by how you look when you leave. In fact, I frequently can identify Jolene haircuts walking around town — yes, she is that good! She listens to you and evaluates your input with your hair (type, health, etc.) BEFORE she starts cutting/​coloring. BTW — the definition of an awesome awesome haircut when you get the most compliments on the day you have severe bedhead! The salon and staff are relaxed, friendly and very helpful! And if you cannot get an appointment with Jolene I can also recommend Whitney and Ramiro! GREAT SALON!!!

Whitney did an excellent job cutting my hair. I am particular about my fade and men’s haircuts are hard to perfect but she cut it exactly like I wanted it.
She even threw in a quick brow waxing.
I highly recommend!

Once again, I ask a coworker (who is in beauty school (do they still call it that?)) where she would recommend getting my hair done. She’s all, «The Fixx, definitely!»
So I call and guess what? THEY TAKE WALK INS.
The place is cute. They are going for that whole black/​white/​red chandelier Hollywood Regency thing. The front door needs a coat of paint and the eighties called and want their tile back, but other than that, it’s really cute and they totally captured the vibe they were going for.
I got a cool stylist (I think her name is Jessica) who gave me a really cute cut and was interesting to talk to. She apparently was born in raised in the Las Cruces area so it was interesting to get her take on things. Anyways, before you knew it, the styling part was over and I was on my way.
I thought the service was very inexpensive, but in a city where women pay, like, $ 12.00 for everything including the tip, apparently they considered what I paid expensive. Anyways, I will totally come back next time my hair needs some love.
