Brian Evans Balayage

Where do I begin… I discovered Brian thanks to all of his wonderful reviews here on Unilocal.I had been seeing the same girl for 6 years, she got married, had a baby and moved. I was desperate to find another whom I could trust. I tried several stylist and each one left me unimpressed to say the least. The final girl I saw ruined my hair, she turned the roots a terrible brassy color and had caused so much damage in the one visit my hair began breaking. Then I found Brian; thank goodness. Brian has transformed my hair, he explained everything to me in great detail how it will be a process to repair the damage she caused. I have seen him maybe six or seven times now, my hair looks and feels healthy, beautiful and shiny and my color!!! Perfect! I will never let anyone else touch my hair.

I have been a client of Brian’s for about 15 years! I echo what other reviewers said: he is a color perfectionist and a lovely person. Brian does color and does not cut, but there are lots of wonderful stylist in the salon to cut. Brian takes effort to use the best color and products on my hair to keep it healthy. The salon is beautiful and conveniently located downtown. The salon space has large windows, great magazines and comfortable atmosphere. They also offer email/​text appointment reminders which I love. Recently, I used the website appointment booking feature which adds even more value to Brian’s services. I am also impressed with his continuing interest in learning and teaching his art.

I highly recommend you go see Brian. I asked for natural looking, low maintenance balayage and he really took his time to deliver exactly that. You can tell he’s a perfectionist– when he noticed a stray long strand of hair mixed in with what should have been my shorter bangs he asked one of the other stylists to cut it (he just does color). As a bonus, he’s also very personable.

I have never walked out of a salon 100% happy, but for the first time I did! Thanks to Brian, my hair color is exactly how I wanted it to be. He is really good at what he does and I’m so happy that I found him! He lightened my dark brown hair with caramel low lights and it turned out perfect. :)
Tip: Brian only does color, so you’d have to book a cut with someone else. If you want to do both in a day call and make sure you booked it accordingly!

Brian is awesome. He has been restoring my hair to its «natural» red for over 10 years (cough, cough). I would not trust anyone else as I trust him. I’ve never left disappointed, and often have people tell me how much they love the color. Could not more highly recommend him as a colorist (and amazing person).
