I have only had my hair colored and cut at Picasso’s Haven’t tried other services as yet. But let me just say Robin is awesome! I’ve Gone to her several times and I recommend her to my family and friends. The salon isn’t fancy but if your looking for a fabulous cut and color this is the place to go and Robin is who to ask for.

I’m really conflicted about this review, fellow Unilocalers. Maybe a 3.5 would be more fair. On Saturday, November 14, I had an appointment for a blowout — that’s it. A wash, a dry. No more, no less. Now, I have long hair, but apparently i was in for a different appointment — and they made that clear. First, when I made my appointment, I was never told with whom; then, when I got there, the woman never introduced herself. So, all I know is that she owns the place. As far as services, the washing of my hair hurt, lots of pulling. My wash/dry took less than an hour but the woman working on my hair kept stopping to talk to people. Yikes. I was also told over and over again that my hair was dry(no it’s not) and that it’s spotted. SPOTTED. WHAT? No, it’s not. Oh — I wash my hair too much too. Cool, thanks. This isn’t terribly constructive. The lady was nice enough, I guess, aside from what I wrote above about the hair criticism. The blow out was okay, BUTFORTYDOLLARS. $ 40!!! Uh, okay. I wasn’t asked what side I part my hair and when I mentioned it was on the wrong side, no change. The amount of product in my hair makes me want to wash it — 20 minutes after I left. It feels gross and is weighed down. No volume. Not gonna lie, you guys. I’m pretty upset. If you’re going to berate my hair please do a good job. Please don’t tell me that your product won’t weigh my hair down when I comment on how much you’re putting in it. Please don’t tell me this blow out will last 7 days because I’m already dying to wash my hair. PLEASE don’t charge e $ 40 for a service that should cost $ 30.

I have been using the services at Picasso for years and have always been pleased with Robin’s services. Robin is an artist when it comes to color and I always let her do her thing. I trust her completely. Recently, I made a request to add a couple out of the ordinary colors to my hair to raise awareness for a couple causes near and dear to me. She was out of stock in the colors, but willingly ran out to find them for me while my other color was in process. The results were just as I had hoped for! I have also used other services like facials and massage. If you have not yet had a massage with Charles, you need to! Very relaxing and extremely therapeutic! Give Picasso a try and tell them Stephanie sent you! :-)

I discovered the salon through groupon. I called about the offer, I was told not to purchase the groupon and that they would honor it but there may be additional charges. The girl who did my hair guilted me into tipping more than she deserved. She went on about groupon people not tipping enough and not making money on groupons. Tips should be based on my satisfaction however after that talk I felt I needed to give her a good tip. I asked for my dead ends cut and long layers, the girl barely even cut my hair. I showed her pictures of what I wanted and she seemed confident. She said my hair was lifting well and would only tone it if necessary. I feel she probably should’ve toned my hair but none the less my hair appeared to look okay. I wanted a caramel blonde ombré and the color wasn’t what I wanted but didn’t look awful, that was until I saw it in natural light it was so dark and barely different. I only saw my hair from the front, she never got a mirror and showed me the back of my head. I left and tipped her thinking it wasn’t perfect but not the worse. That was until I got outside and asked my boyfriend to take a picture of the back so I could see what it looked like. It looked darker in the back and there was a huge light patch. How could she let me leave with my hair like that ??? Over all the experience was not awful but I am very unhappy with my hair and will not be returning.

Being a hairdresser’s worst nightmare(micro manager), and someone who received a terrible texture perm job 6 months ago, I was very apprehensive about trusting someone with my hair again. Until I met Robin. She very much understands the fragile art of balancing the weight of my hair to avoid the mullet result so many people get in return for asking for long layers. She also knew just how to cut my damaged hair to get the most out of the treatment that I suffered so many months ago. Robin’s haircut have my fine hair volume with just the scrunch of a hand(on perfectly dry hair!) Ladies. gentlemen… don’t suffer another 10 minute butchering job at Hair Cuttery ever again, and go see Robin. * This was my second haircut from Picasso Salon, because I knew that even though I adored my first haircut, I wanted to wait until she could replicate it again before I wrote an honest review*

In the small room was no windows and conditioner — inside stank. the girl did massage and her sweat dripped to me on a blanket. it seemed to me that at them stinks everywhere… everything was awfully awful

I love that there is a salon that I LOVE near my house. I live in the BOONIES so finding that combination is truly great. Robin Harooni is the owner and my friend. Since I moved here from Austin TX(the coolest city in Texas, amen), it has been a total transition for finding a new doctor, grocery store, dry cleaner, etc. and finding someone that I like to do my hair was such a relief. They do hair cuts and color, of course, but they also have mani/pedis, facials, massage, endermologie, and now they have laser hair removal. I’m sure there’s more they do that I’m not even aware of…
