I have tried quite a few salons before finally going to Gerber. I always worried that they were a little pricey, and when you get color ,highlights, cut and blow out, that can add up in any salon. I would go to other salons, pay almost as much and leave with roots. When I finally decided to switch, I made the best decision. Gerber employs highly trained staff, capable of making your hair dreams come true. Lauren is my go to for color. She has never given me a bad color, and has earned my trust to just "let her play". For cuts and styling, I have been to almost every employee there and every one of them can work magic. I can tell you the slightly higher prices are worth it when you walk out looking fabulous and they do such a good job that you can go longer between sessions. Love them!
