BLOWN AWAY

There are so many things I could say, but I will keep it short because I am limited on words. Do NOT go here! I asked before I ever made the appointment if they had experience and were able to do what I asked for. I was assured they could. I assure you they can’t. Not just because they didn’t, but also because they were all just as curious how it was being done as the one doing my hair. Did a consult told 3&1/2 hours max, took almost 6. Told $170-$210 max. Tried to charge more because they had to foil all of my (short) hair. I said no because that is why a consultation was done. She tried to tell me it was because they had to do other stuff (foils) to get what I asked for. I asked for nothing more than I did before. She wanted me to go out and see it in the sunlight to assure me that it was pretty. Well other places charge 90/hr. Don’t care still not on me. I’m not saying it isn’t pretty. It’s not what I asked for! I got a “coupon” to bring it back down to $203. I had to ask 3 times to finally get most of the color rubbed off my face. Rushing me out without giving me a mirror to look closely. I thought it was due to wanting to get to the next person. Now I’m betting it is because she didn’t want me to see my hair is also green and a little part is not dyed at all. My husband informed me when I got home. Which means everyone in there could see it too and didn’t say anything! I also woke up this morning with my hand (I sleep on it), my neck, and my pillow dyed because she clearly didn’t get all the dye out. See for yourself and tell me if you think my hair is what I asked for. While pretty, I don’t want to look like a dark mermaid. On the upside, she was nice.

Jenn was my stylest. She did a great job. Can't wait to go back !

The owners are Steve and Laura, and they are always very responsive.  The staff is incredibly talented and friendly.  I would tell the others to make an appointment before visiting because they’re very popular.

I went to Blown Away for almost two years while working near the salon. I'm no longer visiting the salon regularly as I now work and live about 40 minutes away. I'll sincerely miss the salon and many of the stylists that I encountered because of their attentiveness, attention to detail, character, and skill. I was always pleased with my cut or color because the stylists took the time to chat with me about exactly what I wanted before beginning. I was pleased with the price of $30 to $40 for a cut.
At my last visit, they were having a problem with one of the credit card machines and my card was accidentally charged twice for the visit. I called after hours and left a message alerting them of the issue. The owner called me back first thing the next morning apologizing for the error and returned my money right away. He was great to work with!
If you're in the Noblesville area, visit Blown Away.

Jayna was great, very informative and let me know exactly what to expect. I had sent her a photo and she was able to accommodate the style I wanted. I really enjoyed the overall environment of the salon. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

When I arrived at the salon, I was immediately greeted and offered something to drink. Laken, my stylist, came right up and took me to her station. We discussed what I wanted done concerning my hair and she offered some very good suggestions but was not at all pushy. As Laken was working on my hair, she was asking about my job and other subjects we had talked about on my previous visit. When I commented on her good memory for details, she admitted that after I had left the last time, she had taken some time to jot down not only the specifics on my hair color (which I loved), but also things we had talked about. I was very impressed by this, as it showed she takes an active interest in her clients. And once again, my hair came out even more beautiful than I had hoped for! Don't let Laken's lack of years of experience affect your decision to make an appointment with her, she is truly gifted in her abilities. As for the salon, the atmosphere is very relaxing and the staff is friendly and helpful. Hand massage and mini-facials are offered while color and deep conditioner are processing. The prices for services is right in line with other salons in the area. Definitely an extremely positive experience!

My stylist Jayna is a pro at every aspect of hair styling. I highly recommend her.

interesting the person prior talked about the front desk. I felt the exact same way. This was my first visit and it was a very cold feeling comiing into the salon. The girls at the front really could have cared less about me at all. The person that checked me in was looking at the screen as if I didn't have an appt, and they never told me who it was scheduled with anyways. They just continued to chat away the entire time I was waiting. How about making some small chat with me? You would know pretty quick if a client didn't want to chat. Horrible first impression.

I enjoyed the stylist, but never expected her to be doing my color and anothers at the same time. There is an assitant to the stylists here. This assistant did my hand massage and rinsed my hair. While I was processing my stylist began another color, while my hair was being cut, the other ladies color was processing. I think that may be a little too impersonal.

We will see if I return.

I regularly get maintenance. My last stylist was Jess from headcase salon. I've never had someone I always felt would leave me feeling wonderful like she did. She left with her pregnancy and I thought she was coming back. I had a phone call and didn't understand why she listed the number, not saved, but she's gone. I'm still in mourning (if anyone knows jess, or where she is now. Please let her know I'm looking). So new style places ahoy. I asked someone who came into my shop with very impressive hair who did her hair and she pointed me to jaina. It was my first visit and now moving onto my second today (new to angies list and checking out reviews). My first visit noted the front desk unmanned. Eventually maned by someone continuing a conversation behind her. The entire time. Asked questions and didn't listen to my responses and continued the conversation. Seemed to be another stylist. I wanted to see if I could get a lip/brow wax that day, but she didn't pay attention to that question. They stylist showed up and snatched me from that experience into a lovely, courteous. and well done color. Jaina seemed quite good at color (chocolate, good grey coverage). More interesting at highlights. Good at the hairstyle I chose (the grown out cut from Jess), chunky layers but straight with less of the small variation needed for good movement (I'm not a stylist). I still miss Jess and her amazing cuts with good movement (if anyone has any information as to that stylist, please, please, please contact me), but will try out Jaina again today. I did miss my second appointment. I scheduled it as they did ask for this, and related that I'll have to check since my work schedule is INCREDIBLY VARIED shift work. I didn't call to reset it and missed my appointment (sorry guys!). I didn't get a reminder call, which I really really appreciated from my old salon (I know I shouldn't need, but it helps my busy life). On the phone I made my 2nd appointment. I asked about waxing services and they said they did those. I asked about an appointment before or after and never got that answer for this, they just said the date of my hair cut, glad to see me then, and ended the call. I guess they don't make appointments for these? O.o Not the most responsive front desk staff. My 3rd appointment. I got a lovely color which is a nice warm brown, would be happy to continue working on the color if that's all it was. The cut is a bit awkward again. Takes a lot of work to make it doable, but is doable, interesting, and quite a bit better than most places I've been! Much better movement. Lengths from one side to the next are awkward. The back seems unfinished, and will need more input at a next visit. Would continue with the stylist. The waxing is another story and was done by the assistant. The lip wax, 3 attempts later (without my glasses) noted that what I'm feeling was dry skin. It was in fact several hairs left in the corner of my 30 year old mouth. I had to shave when I got home so I didn't have to show up with my friends with whiskers at the corners of my mouth. : / This was really disappointing. The worst though was the eyebrows. She waxed the bottoms. I have very bushy top eyebrows. She plucked a bit then waxed the tops. The wax was ok (only did the inner 1/3rd), and not the outer 1/3 where I have the most trouble and I hate to pluck when I got home. But.. they are uneven. One is so thin I'm worried correcting it would require too much plucking and end up penciling in my left brow arch. Right now I have a triangle shaped spike in my left center eyebrow where it just drops off, not as the arch but a 1cm spike, I really wish I could post a photo. It's not god awful, but makes me look a bit unusual in a bad way. I've had many many satisfying waxes (actually can't remember one I hated beyond this) and after the first 5 min of haircut shock I usually love my new maintained do. Maybe I'll skip this salon and hit a different salon. But not being able to do everything I need for maintenance at the same salon, is less than exciting. But it's a hard trade from salon to salon. I'll check on here for a new salon I guess. :(

My wife called in and made an appointment. We got a reminder call the day before we were scheduled to go in. When I arrived I was impressed with the decor and the staff was very friendly. They did a great job on my on the hair cuts!

She did a really good job. I am very pleased. She was very personable and seemed like a real good person.
