Facial Experience with Tatiana

by MSWORLD227 at Citysearch

I just came from Fierce this morning. I used a groupon for a basic European facial. I normally don't review, as I get groupons for basic facials because it's cheap and go to salons I use frequently (Profiles, Skin Rn, etc) for more intense treatments like peels and microderms/microplanes.

I actually forgot I had the appointment until I got the reminder call yesterday. Lucky for me, as I totally have 5 big zits on my cheeks from starting a regimen of BHA...it gets all the gunk out of your pores, but then you have to watch all the gunk come out of your pores : ( So anyway, I went to her and when I left, I can not tell you how much better these huge, white pimples look. She didn't pick at them at all, just used massage, product, and high frequency (which, by the way, is normally about $10 extra in most salons...she used it, for free, without even mentioning it was an upgrade).

It was so, so relaxing. Aside from my wonderful turn around on the blemishes, I just really enjoyed everything about it..the service came with hand and neck and FOOT massage...she massaged my face forever, and it was a good massage...not the type that make you feel like it's a few quick strokes, just routine.

I get massages about every 3 weeks or so, and I'd say her technique rivals any regular therapist (i.e. hitting all the pressure points- temples, brow bone, etc)...

My skin feels so good, and has been parched/tortured by winter for the past month or so, and she offered me advice on skincare....I don't like products pushed on me every new salon I go to, but I didn't feel pressured...for example, after I was under the bright light on the table, she actually mentioned I didn't need the acne spot-treatment she had previously suggested; I could just use tea tree oil (which I already have) and be fine.

Like I said, I don't normally review for the services I get from groupon, but I really just like her as a person, and am grateful for what she did for my unsightly breakout.

OH! And I asked how much the service normally is (for tipping purposes) and they said $62. STEAL!

I looked at the reviews for the salon before I bought the coupon, and I seem to remember some people having issues with staff/front desk?...I don't remember exactly, but they are just normal, pretty younger women that have you fill out a form, give you a drink, and are super sweet about it. Not sure what the problem was there in other reviews.

One of the Best!

by sscrugg at Citysearch

I bought a hair makeover Groupon because I was looking for a new stylist, as mine had become very undependable. I thought to myself--not much money invested and if my short hair came out badly, it would grow back in a few months. I'll admit, I had low expectations, but I was more than pleasantly surprised. LaChelle was both personable and professional. I love my new color and cut. She took the time to show me how to achieve the style at home. To me, the sign of a great cut and style, is that I am able to do it at home every morning before I go to work with a minimum of fuss and products. Love it--will definitely be going back!

• Pros: Great surroundings, great stylists
• Cons: Parking

Nashville's best colorists/stylists

by Mscheer at Citysearch

for years I have loved to have highlights in my plain brown hair, but within weeks I was brassyand unhappy with it. Angel Brewer is the first person who has kept this from happening. my color is always perfect and he never leads me astray! i have never had so many compliments for 3 years now - and that says it all!

my cut & style are always perfect. i have never left unhappy with my cut or color. ask for the relaxing head massage too - makes having your hair done feel like spa time. Donna Clements RN the Botox/Juvederm nurse does PERFECT Botox and her prices are very reasonable!

• Pros: best colorist I have had in 20 years! best head massage too

Great salon!!

by LScheer at Citysearch

I started using Fierce Salon when it opened and have always had a great experience. The reception staff is very friendly and always offer water, coffee, or wine when you arrive. Angel Brewer is a great stylist and cuts my hair perfectly. I recommend Fierce to all my friends and you should try it too.

This place is AWESOME!

by mattglehman at Citysearch

I have NO idea why there are a couple bad reviews about this salon. The location is perfect (just off West End), the staff is super cool, the interior is super hip, and they offer so many amazing services. Perhaps the lesser reviews are from when the salon first opened... any kinks they might have had are gone now. This place is running on all cylinders! Angel Brewer is the BEST!

• Pros: cool vibe and highly knowledgeable and fun staff
• Cons: none that I've noticed
