I came for two simple jobs toning and a haircut. My friend that came in for a trim literally sat there for an hour without anyone telling her how long or when her haircut would be. The stylist nor the salon owner (who later attempted to correct my damaged do) had no idea the difference between toner and color or texture and layers. I had $300+ worth of hair color in my hair with baby lights, teasy lights, and bayalage and its now gone. My hair length was at least down to my mid back. I asked for a haircut that took away any damaged hair and to bring it shoulder length and the thickness and to tone the brassiness away. I specifically asked for a neutral light brown no warmth. I got a lob with near black splotchy hair. The receptionist attempted to tell me that I didn't even come in for color just for a cut. Toning a color isn't color it takes like 15 min when you're getting shampooed to change the tone from warm brass to cool tone. She then said it was a problem in miscommunication. I showed pictures and videos of both the haircut and the color. Being a hair colorist or a hair stylist is not my profession so I can understand if they didn't comprehend what I was asking for but if I'm showing you pictures I feel like you should be able to recognize the technique. If she would have said I don't know how to do it, that is not to my skill level then that would have been fine I would have taken my business somewhere else. Don't waste both our time or money. They literally had me in the salon the very next day for 4 hours for a color correction for what looked like a box hair color. The stylist didn't apply the product to my whole head just my blonde ends. I sat getting my hair bleached and it turned red. I get it when you strip color it has to go through a process of red then it goes to strip the rest of the pigment to blonde. I know she was trying to prevent my hair from going through that damage. Which she wouldn't have had to if they didn't dye my hair black. What do you do to take reds out, you apply whatever is opposite of the color wheel, THATS WHAT A TONER DOES! Which was what I came in for to begin with. I was livid by this point because my hair had tons of dimension and now it was red and black. Owner says okay that's fine lets had some dimension free of charge I can do some bayalyge. It was garbage, those were not painting hair strokes in my hair and she just laid the bleach hair on top of each other so they're all uneven. To top it off when she tones my new balayage she asked me if I had my old toner formulas. I actually did happen to have but why don't you know this as a salon owner. The owner then attempted to salvage my thick blunt cut lob by adding texture but only cut the ends. She didn't want to had texture because she said it would create layers. Again two very different things and that I wouldn't be able to see the texture because my hair is not curled. Again not true. She had the same stylists who dyed my hair black start to blow dry me with a paddle brush. I have never been blow dried with a paddle brush I've always been round brush, why? because its smoothens your hair and locks in moisture making it shiny. The owner even asked me if I get "poofy" when blown dried. Who asks that, thats what the technique to blow drying is for. Stylists attempted to curl my hair with a wand tried curling from my root. I told her that's not a beach wave. She said that because my hair was straight the curls would fall. Those still aren't beauty waves. Of course I turned out to look like brown hair goldilocks because my hair is thick and still has no texture. I appreciated the owner Ashley trying to do everything she could to correct the issue. The truth is they should really either hiring personal that are actually experienced and keep up with hair style trends or invest in providing the proper education and supervision of their upcoming apprentice. I've had better hair turnouts from a Paul Mitchell Beauty school. I would not recommend this place for any type of color level or highlighting, tone, textured cut.

Long time client, Jennifer Ray is absolutely the best. She is an artist with color and no one can match her BOB cut. I have had many ask who does my hair because of her talent with color and style. The salon is comfortable and staff always pleasant.

One of the best and most unique hair salon experiences I've ever had! I saw David for a cut and color and he did an amazing job. While I waited, I was offered anything from the bar to drink as well as chocolate covered strawberries from a local chocolate shop. I felt like a queen! The cut and color was perfect and just what I wanted. David also took the time to style it beautifully. A wonderful experience all around. I would recommend it to anyone!

I came to Limelite because I wanted to take my natural light brown/dirty blonde hair to a light pink, and knew that I would want to do it professionally as I didn't want it to look trashy. I want to start by saying that I love the salon itself. Everyone there is so nice and professional, and it really was enjoyable just being there. Unfortunately, my hair results are another story. I spent the whole day there for my first appointment, from 9am to about 4pm. Spent three hours lightening and another three coloring. Looking back now, I probably should have asked to do two separate appointments for the two processes. After both processes were finished, the front half of my hair came out a rich, vibrant Barbie pink, which is not what I wanted, but I was kind of alright with it because it was pretty. However, the back half of my head came out a less attractive orangey, rose gold, I'm assuming because it didn't lighten enough. They gave me a discounted price of $150. So I made a second appointment to hopefully get my whole head matching. I spent about three hours there again, where more pink dye was layered on top of the back section that was orange, and I was told this would fix the problem. It worked about 80%. There was a still rose gold tint that was noticeably different from the front. But I was relieved that it looked at least somewhat better and payed another $150. It's a week later, and after ONE wash the back of my head is back to the ugly rose gold color. I spent $300 and my hair looks like I tried to box dye it at home and failed hardcore. Giving three stars because my stylist and everyone else there could not have been any more gracious. My new hair color, however, could. If you're trying to do any unnatural colors, I would suggest trying another salon.
