I look my best when she finishes my hair

by grayghost2 at Citysearch

I've been going to Heather for 7yrs. Her tecnique, style, and sometimes outragious hair designs, although odd looking to me, has her clients walking out with smiles and feeling like a different woman ready for the days challenges and the nights passions.

Also impressed with her attendance at updating style classes from S.F. to London which gives her clients the edge on current and upcoming fashions.

I've recommended her to all my friends and even strangers with a bad hair day, knowing that when they leave her chair they will be feeling good about the way their hair looks.

• Pros: Creative styles, relaxing atmosphere, beautiful to look at
• Cons: Busy woman, need to schedule early

I loved my hair and colour. Ive been coming to Heather for seven years. I am a lady in my 60's and my haircutt is modern.She seems to know what is right for me and I do trust her judgement.

She is professional and I have confidence in her haircutting abilities. I would recommend this hairstylist to anyone,especially the mature women.

• Pros: friendly staff
• Cons: parking

I found Heather Mell on the Arimosa website which is actually called A Damsel in Distress Hair by Heather. She is now working at Allure Salon and Spa. The location is nice but kinda hard to find. It is in a court yard in the back of the building. The address is 2115 J suite 201 street in the downtown area. She was very professional with her consultation. I am an older woman in my 60's, for my age I felt that the salon was very stylish and the customer service was great. Heather She gave me a short shag haircut, which is so much easier for me to manage in the morning. The color is what I loved, she is very creative with color. She put in blonde highlights with a chocolate brown base color and a cranberry lowlight. I just love how my hair look so rich in color and it lookes so SASSY!!. Thankyou Heather for my new look! Plus making me feel and look younger. She said she is always looking for new clients. Heather can be reached at 916-868-7854.

• Pros: prfessional stylist, communicates great, she found a hairstyle that workes for my everday living, she is very talented, and you can tell she is passionate about her work.
• Cons: hard parking, got lost because not on front street, the sign was hard to find

Bring the "sassy" out of you with a new haircut and color at Arimosa Salon + Spa

by crystallee at Citysearch

I met Kasey a few months ago through MySpace. She rents a chair at Arimosa Salon and Spa in downtown Sacramento. She is an artist! I provided her with an idea of what I wanted and she exceeded my expectations and gave me a whole new look. She did an A-line cut, dyed my hair dark brown then put some blonde chunks underneath so they would peak through the brown. Even though I consider myself to be conservative this cut gave me a little sass and a bounce in my step. I would recommend her and this salon to anyone!

• Pros: Great ambiance, friendly staff, timely service, great artwork inside!
• Cons: Parking is a pain
