I've been to the Green Tangerine a few times when just shopping around. I scheduled a facial there once and it was a great experience. I have to say that the bad reviews shocked me a little so I decided to pay some attention. My husband and I went in before Easter and I wanted color while he wanted a cut. We were both greeted, our coats were taken, and we were asked if we wanted a drink (coffee, tea, water). Then our stylists came to get us and there the experiences started to differ. I had someone who finally got it right. The color was perfect and after I asked if she had time for a trim. She said she was hoping I'd say that and I told her I needed something new. I have never gotten so many compliments after leaving a salon as I did that day. I'll admit it's a little more pricy than some other salons I've been to but for me it was worth it, plus your paying for the spa experience. My husband on the other hand had a woman who didn't really listen to him and who gave him one of the worst haircuts he's had, and I cut his hair myself once. I would suggest the salon to everyone I know, with a little word of warning. If you feel that someone isn't doing what you want, speak up. They have a variety of people working there and I think they might benefit from personal reviews to wean out the people who make it a less than pleasant experience. If you do go... I highly recommend Beth. I'll be going back to her soon for a touch up and trim. I'll continue to return to them for most of my services. I love Aveda products, and I've been lucky with the staff so far.
Pros: The products and most of the staff make it a great experience.
Cons: Some of the staff can make it an uncomforterable experience.
