September 3, 2017<\/span><\/div>After reading the Yelp reviews for Emerald, I thought I would give her a try. Please bear in mind, I NEVER actually spoke to her. All messages were done by text, including booking the appointment and the confirmations. \nLet the text messages speak for themselves: \nFriday @ 7:07 AM (SQAP): Hi ME, your appointment at EmeraldSydney on 9/2 at 3:00 PM PDT has been confirmed. \n \nFriday @7:08AM (Me to Emerald): Booked it. Thank you. \nFriday @ 3:08 PM (SQAP): Hi Me, your appointment at EmeraldSydney on 9/2 at 3:00 PM PDT is coming up. \nFriday @4:15 PM (Emerald to Me): Awesome. Let me know if you have any questions. My salon is located in Carlsbad off Jefferson in a building called Sola Salon.. When you enter the building you\'ll head left and I am the last studio on the left. \nFriday @4:46 PM (Me): See you Saturday! \nSaturday @1:39 PM (Me to Emerald)This is ME. Is my appt today at 3? \nSat @1:50 PM (Emerald to Me): It says Sunday on my schedule. \nSat @1:50 PM (Me to Emerald) It should be the 2nd. \nSat @3:08 (SQAP): Hi Me, your appointment at EmeraldSydney on 9/3 at 3:00 PM PDT is coming up. \nSat @ 3:27 PM (ME to Emerald): I have confirmation for 9/2/17 at 3:00. And I I also got a confirmation for 9/3/17 at 3:00. I don\'t recall making appts for both days. Well, I hope I see and meet you Sunday 9/3/17 at 3. \nSunday @ 12:17 PM (Emerald to Me): I think I\'m not the right stylist for you. I hope you can find another curly stylist..\n\nThe way I see it: Holiday weekend - 3 days. Saturday afternoon appointment, she blew me off and rescheduled the appointment for Sunday, same time. Why would I book an appointment on Saturday and then another appointment again on Sunday? Wouldn\'t her computer have confirmed both days had I actually scheduled both days? Her computer confirmed and reminded me of the Saturday appointment, It did not confirm the Sunday appointment, only the reminder sent. When I questioned the likelihood of booking 2 appointments, back to back, her spineless reaction was to cancel the appointment she rescheduled. My curls and my hairstylist are important to me. I want someone that I can openly communicate my needs and desires; integrity and professionalism are also very important. Emerald obviously does not meet my standards. I prefer to find a stylist that I can actually talk with, and not rely on modern technology.<\/div>

First DevaCut<\/h4><\/i><\/i><\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span><\/span>Sherri<\/span>|<\/span>August 25, 2017<\/span><\/div>I sat down in Emerald\'s chair and she said \"tell me about your hair\" I said \"it\'s totally frizzy (and has a mind of its own, and some like to curl and some just don\'t and tangle city - OH and its frizzy!). I walked out with super bouncy curls, great shape and shine and virtually NO FRIZZ. I thought OK, but let\'s see how it is tomorrow after I wash and style - well that\'s today and I\'m having an awesome hair day - bouncy curls, shine and NO frizz. Best haircut ever. Thanks Emerald (PS happy birthday)<\/div>
