Driving by, one does not realize how much they pack into this place. It's just amazing how large it is when you get inside. (Go ahead, say it with me: TWSS. Hi, I'm 5)\n\nEveryone who works at Shine Salon is so unbelievably nice. Seriously, every person here. They should write a book called \""Friendly 101\"" and then make every business read it.\n\nSince this is my new hood and I fly by it every day on 7th Street, I popped in to see if I could make an appointment. I was able to get in just a couple days later.\n\nChelsea did a thorough consultation with me to go over what I would like to do with my hair. Color, cut... the annoying baby hairs that just won't behave. Seriously, what the hell are those things? We went with some lighter tone highlights (hello Summer) and a gloss to help ward off the red (go away brassy). Chelsea is fairly new to Charlotte. She moved here when her fiancee took on a new job here. She is just fantastic. I wouldn't be surprised if her old customers drive all the way to the Queen City to keep her as a stylist.\n\nBonus: I mentioned how I have been wanting to try a wand, but was a little scared. She took the time to show me how to use one. Gave me some great tips, advice and instruction. (Tune in next week when I'll be writing about burning myself)\n\nIf you are looking for a stylist, I definitely recommend Chelsea. I absolutely love my color and everything she did. Chelsea gets five stars! Cost-wise, it's not in my budget to come here on the regular. But hey, you get what you pay for.. right? For some people, probably not an issue. \n\nThere's more than just hair styling at Shine Salon. They also offer a nice selection of products, make up artistry, nail services and facials. \n\nShine Salon, you are fantastic. I'll definitely be back when it's time to treat myself with a splurge.
