“This was my first time at misfit salon, and it was an excellent experience. I’ve been going to my salon for years and because of circumstances that had nothing to do with the salon I was going to. I had to change the salons. Marcy was amazing. She was professional. She took her time with me ask lots of questions did things that I wanted to try that were new. The Salon was quiet. It was clean. It was professional. It was comfortable. Marcy was able to book me out through the first of the year which really works for me and my Life schedule Overall, I am completely happy that Google took me to the salon and I’m very happy that I have found Marcy Thank you, Misfits. Thank you Marcy!!! ??‍♀️?“

“About a month ago I brought in pictures for a somewhat drastic, edgy change to Angie. Angie cut my unruly and unpredictable curly hair and since then I have had more good hair days than I have had in years.

“Amazing professional in downtown Anchorage. I had her cut and low light my hair to blend my grays. Sabrina did the best job I have ever had done. I am going to have to fly out and have her do it again in 6 months. It is totally worth it. I also had her microblade my eyebrows and my 80 year old moms as well. She helped my nervous mom who really wanted it done but was afraid. I would give her 10 stars if I could.“

I highly recommend Lola’s Salon to anyone looking for beautiful results and outstanding customer service!“

“My dresser was Nicole.
Loved how the curls themselves looked. I asked for a face frame, some layers and trim, moderate smile on the bottom. I was wanting the ringlets to have more spring, and the top to better embrace its volume.
Nicole overall did a good job. Loved to talk and share her experiences, asked me some questions about me and my family. Her lingo was a little different than how I’d hear some other hairdressers describe- I’ve wanted to know what my curl type is, or coarseness to know what kind of cut or products would generally best look complimentary with. She said curls can have more than one type or chan change so she didn’t bother with the scales of ‘A’ ‘B’ ‘C’ etc. curls. She admitted she was more intuitively versed with descriptions like ‘spring’, ‘coil’, ‘wave’ etc.

I like how springy the curls became, more defined. But there was a spot on the back to the right sides where I think she took a chunk out that removed the even smile I had. (Seen from the behind shot photo.)
My only other feedback was that I would like a little more check-ins. I understand proficient and quick pace are necessary, but at times I think like some other physical professions, it can lead to discomfort if done too forcefully. Some times it would hurt with the pressure or quickness applied. Asking the guest:
“Is this pressure okay for you?”
“How is this looking so far?”
“Would you like me to stop here?”

-would be greatly appreciated more periodically. At one point I was worried how much was being removed, and when she announced more had to come off, I had to insert and ask to see how it was first and ask if she could leave it. Too much more off would have been an issue for me. She said one more time I could look and see that more had to come off- but I asked again if she could leave it, to which she did, but I sensed some light deprecation of my decision.

Overall it was quickly done, had several personal requirements met. She gave good recommendations for products- some more fluid communication and letting me see what’s happening from the back would be appreciated.
I’d say to anyone looking to have a cut with Nicole, you can generally trust her skill with curls, but don’t be afraid to speak up for yourself if you have special needs or preference and check her work periodically throughout. <3
(I forgot to get a good ‘before’ shot, the navy blue jacket one was taken days before. I hope that makes it helpful enough!)“

“I have absolutely not one bad thing to say about this place. Monica was so helpful with rearranging my appt multiple times. Natalie!! Shes so cool & does an amazing job with me & my teen! Ill never go anywhere else.“
