5 /5 Melissa Goulet: I have reviewed Karen Allen Salon before, but feel compelled to provide another review. Recently, I asked for a complete color transformation. I wanted to go from the deep, dark brown with highlights that I have had for the last several years, to a vibrant coppery red. My stylist, Natalia Alvarez, was up to the challenge and talked me through everything. We looked at color samples, discussing how the colors I wanted could be best achieved given my existing dark color and highlights and the fact that my roots have a lot of gray when my hair grows in. Natalia and I made a plan, and Natalia executed it a couple of weeks ago. I was worried that the change might be too much for me, and that I might need some time to get used to it, even though it was what I wanted. As it turned out, I loved it from the first moment. I have received so many compliments on it, and it feels so natural to me. I wish I did it years ago. I cannot thank Natalia and Karen Allen Salon enough for once again making me feel fabulous! I also want to send shout-outs and thanks to Katie, who consulted on color; Jess, who helped Natalia apply the lifting agent so that my hair all lifted at the same rate; and Samira, for taking the post-transformation picture. Thank you again Natalia and Karen Allen Salon!
