I am new to Edmonton and so did some research into highly recommended salons in Edmonton. I read the review preceding mine, and therefore thought that Celebrity sounded like a great place to go. When I made my appointment, the young fellow on the phone sounded helpful and professional, so I was thinking it was going to be a hit. When I got there, he continued to be a great first contact from behind the counter. However, things went downhill fast when the girl who was assigned to washing my hair (which is the same girl who sweeps the floors), scrubbed my head like a dishpan. Honestly, my scalp still hurt hours later. You go get your hair done partially for the pampering, right? This wasn't a good way to start. As for my hairdresser - she apparently has 11 years experience, but I couldn't tell from the way she cut my hair. It wasn't a BAD haircut, but heavily mediocre. She didn't have too many creative ideas of her own. As well, one of the problems is that the hairdresser doesn't come out to talk to you and take a look at your hair BEFORE you get your hair wet from being washed. So you have virtually nothing to refer to when you are trying to tell them how you want to improve on your current hairstyle. We got through it, all the while I felt like I was being interrogated rather than having a conversation with someone. And though a mediocre haircut is better than a really bad one, when I went to pay my bill, they charged me $63 for the lame experience. I will never go there again.
