So very wonderful! Shane is my stylist and he also cuts and colors my wife's hair. He is outstanding in every respect. We love him. It's difficult to tone down our appreciation of his skill sufficient for this review to be taken seriously. He performs miracles as a stylist, provides excellent advice when needed and desired, and makes every aspect of your experience pleasurable. He comes in on his days off sometimes if we need him. He did my wife's hair for our wedding. I sent my mother to him and he converted her as well, which is not easy. 

The salon itself is also amazing. An airy asthetic greets you visually, and the emotional environment is lighthearted while remaining infused by relentless competence. I highly recommend.

Everything is top notch!!!   When I sat down in Sarah Ashley's chair, I had six months of regrowth… Just a mess. She went straight to work and performed great artistry on my hair,  a miracle really!  The atmosphere is amazing and everyone on staff there is warm and welcoming.

I simply can't say enough good things about this salon, specifically about a very talented stylist, Sarah Ashley! Sarah Ashley was so sweet and attentive, she sat down and asked me what I envisioned for my hair before she ever began. I gave her some ideas of what I wanted and she took it from there! She balayaged my hair, something I'd never even heard of previously, and spent more time on my hair than any salon I've been in. She was really a perfectionist about the whole process. I couldn't be happier with the color. Sarah Ashley also cuts my husband's very long hair , and she has always done an excellent job for him as well. Stop looking for other stylists, and go see Sarah Ashley at Ananda! ❤️

Everyone was very friendly and helpful from when I came in the door. I was shown around, offered beverages and wifi. Ari took great care of me and did a great job with my haircut. It was my first time there so she made sure she knew what I wanted. The conversation was pleasant. There is a nice, modern atmosphere.

May you never have a moment where you go in for a hair trim and look up to see the stylist has cut off all your hair--- hair that took 8 months to re-grow. The stylist discussed with me that she wanted to cut a little off the back to blend the cut better. At the time, my hair was about an inch below my ears in front and an inch below my shoulders in back. Hannah clipped my hair up in back, and started trimming… I looked up to realize she had cut ALL the hair at the back off. I think she just spaced, or something… and then the entire back 3 inches of hair was gone. After the shock wore off, I called Ananda and the owner, Larry, apologized. He had me go back in- I haven’t had a pixie cut like this since I was a kid and I was completely sick over it- but they did make the cut look better. Ananda then covered all my trims for 6 months, which was a nice gesture. 
Follow up: 
My conscience is insisting I update this and take my rating to a one star. 
At first the free haircuts (to make up for the chopping off of three inches) were fine... the stylist did a decent "really short, little boy" haircut. I was actually very happy with the first two, given the situation. 
But then it got strange. I showed photos of my hair when it was long and repeatedly said I wanted my hair to look like that again. But I kept getting a cut that was that same "little boy" style. Except it kept getting puffier.  And longer in the back, but with a kind of scraggly two-tiered effect like that ugly 70s hairdo Carol Brady wore. We'd go over the photos and talk about what I wanted each appointment: weight taken out (thinned) and long, like the photos, with no two-tiered look. But then I'd leave with the puffy, little boy haircut again. I won't say the stylist's name because he is a really nice guy and I think he wanted to be able to do a good haircut, but just couldn't. The intent here is not to slam him, but to give an accurate review of Ananda.
There was also the issue of every appointment being so rushed- I'd be propelled out of the chair, only to get home and realize he hadn't shown me the back of my hair or that my bangs hadn't been trimmed, etc. 
Then I learned two things and everything made more sense. 1. He had recently started cutting hair. Which makes me suspect the "free haircuts" to make up for the chopped off hair was actually me serving as practice for a new stylist. (Also, the free haircuts had stopped and I have been paying $65 a cut the past half dozen appointments) 2. He double books every appointment. Which completely explains the rushing and the chunk of hair that is missing behind my left ear from this last appointment. 
Immediately after the last appointment, I found an experienced stylist who has her own shop to start fixing my hair... Her comment, "Oh my," sums it all up. 
My advice would be to avoid Ananda... it's like the chain restaurant that does't care much about quality, but cares a whole lot about getting high numbers of people through and making a large profit. Stick with stylists who have experience and take time with their clients.
