Shear Design Salon and Spa

A Groupon deal brought me to Shear Design for my first visit, and now I’m hooked. I purchased a deal for $ 25 for a keratin moisture treatment, shampoo, and style.
Finding the salon was tricky for me, I passed by it a couple times. Look for Curry Ford Plaza. The plaza is an L shape, and the salon is in the corner. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but you’ll be surprised when you go in.
When I arrived I met Sheila, the owner and hairdresser. She explained how she starts new customers with a thorough hair analysis. She said that my hair didn’t really need the deep-​moisture treatment I had purchased, but could use the protein on the ends (I have longish hair). She said since she wasn’t doing the full moisture treatment she could give me a trim instead. I agreed to that, being close to due for a haircut, and pretty impressed with Sheila’s detailed attention.
She started with the hair trim by telling me the importance of studying the hairline to make sure the hair falls properly. She suggested some changes to my layers and suggested a small trim.
Now, this has been a couple weeks, so my order of events might be slightly off, but what followed was a haircut, a shampoo, the protein treatment (with time spent under a hair dryer), another shampoo, and finally styling my hair. The whole process took about two hours. So, two hours spent on my hair for $ 25. At that point I felt like I was robbing poor Sheila.
For the first shampoo she has a small closet-​sized space in the back. She put warm blankets over me and did a bit of a scalp massage. It was so relaxing I nearly fell asleep. And the shampoo she used for me smelled like chocolate.
So, for my Groupon I got way, way more than I expected. The haircut was great and the treatment left my hair feeling amazing (I was so sad when the chocolate smell wore off).
I should add that she uses organic products and if you buy the shampoo you can bring your bottle back to refill (environmentally friendly).
She also sells teas and adorable tea pots (she brews a tea of the day you can try while you are waiting). It’s just one more awesome touch in an otherwise awesome place.

I recently moved to the area and was very excited to find a comfortable feeling salon with stylists that know what they’re doing. After having dyed my hair black for as long as I can remember, I wanted to go platinum before my upcoming wedding. It was a fantastic experience talking with Sheila and all the other stylists and I felt secure in Sheila’s hands. Sure enough I got a fantastic result for a great price.
