I can't say enough good things about my experience at Jackson Ruiz, North Lamar. It is set up so that some stylists specialize in cutting and some in color, which means you need to see two different people. This ended up being such a good thing as they can really focus on what you are hoping to achieve, and what they might recommend. If it is your first time to see a colorist, you will set up a consultation appointment first so you can work with them to determine what you will be making an appointment for. They time appointments beautifully so that your stylist is waiting when you arrive, and they make you feel so welcome and relaxed making sure to offer you a quality beverage. The shampoo room is like a spa, you receive a complimentary hand and lower arm massage while in the chair, and when you leave you feel so pampered and well taken care of. This makes going twice to see each specialists a bonus. I also love that there is no tipping here, which means I know exactly what I will pay before I go, and no gratuity anxiety. And on top of all that, both my cut and color are possibly the best I have ever had!
