    I recently moved to CT from CA and was pretty nervous about finding a new hair colorist but I am so glad I found Ari!! She’s very good at what she does, transparent about the price, and works WITH you to achieve your hair goals. Also, she’s just the sweetest person ever. I’ve gotten so many compliments on my hair. Thanks so much, Ari! 🫶

    As soon as I walked in, I felt welcomed and comfortable. I was immediately greeted and offered water or coffee. The place had cozy seating with complimentary chocolates while I waited for a short time. All the staff were exceptionally friendly. My hairdresser, Vinny, did an amazing job; I showed him a picture of one of their previous client’s haircuts and he did exactly that type of hairstyle shown in the picture, despite it previously being done by another hairdresser there. You can tell he’s really passionate about his job and makes extra sure to include his clients during every step of the haircut process. Undoubtedly, I was impressed overall with the service and look forward to coming back again soon :).

    Had the best experience here! Everyone was super nice and awesome music was played in the background! I don’t trust many people with my hair, however, Ari is the best and did everything I asked for! Will definitely be getting my hair done by her again!!!

    Actually, this rating didn't even deserve one star. However, since I received an honest apology from Ari and refund for the most miserable haircut of my life, this hairdresser gets only one star if any. Since I didn't have a cut in my hair after growing my hair to the middle of my back for 3 years, I wished I had a little more movement in my hair in the form of soft longer curtain banks to get me started. There was a lot of work in the last few years and I didn't want to give away too much hair, but slowly get used to it. Also, I explicitly wanted a simple cut that hardly needed styling because I often wear my hair in a ponytail or braided and now wanted to wear it more open. The end result looked okay in the mirror from the front. On the way home I noticed that felt a little strange. A friend confirmed my fears that almost half of my hair was literally plucked away. In addition, still totally crooked. In the end, the hairdresser not only cut curtain banks, but also shortened the hair at the back of my head by over half of my original length, although there was never any talk of that! Since I sat the whole time turned away from the mirror, I could unfortunately not see how short she had really cut, otherwise I would have stopped her immediately. Also, especially with such a lot of hair that is cut off, should at least be a consultation with the customer before the razor (yes a razor and not scissors) is applied. That this stylist calls herself a senior stylist is a joke. Even an amateur would have done better. In the end, I did get my money back, after I two hours later and close to tears have taken the courage to go to the store again. An apology and a refund can't make my hair grow back, but hopefully future customers will be careful and maybe go to another store after all.

    It was my first time at Skull & Combs and I had an awesome experience. Hopper have me one of the best haircuts I've ever had. I really appreciate how thorough she is. I am so excited that I found my new place to get a haircut. 5 stars!

    I absolutely loved my experience with Vinny!! I have never had a stylist be interactive in the process through such creativity. His knowledge and experience I felt was beyond a Master stylist. He was teaching me more about my hair as he was cutting, and studied how every follicle was falling to create a work of art. The technique was pure love and heart with a pair of scissors. You love what you do and it shows. Thank you so much!! I will be rebooking because we just found my look!

    I started going to Ari a few years ago and not only is she a lovely human being but she gives me the best hair cuts of my life! She takes the time to consult with me about what I'm looking for and what would work best for my hair type and face shape. During my most recent cut she gave me tips on how to style it and that was a game changer. I could go on about her color as well but one look at her instagram and you'll see :). Ari is the best!

    Loved it! They were all very sweet and took good care of me/costumers. Checked & communicated well about what I wanted. Showed me the haircolor on a paper before dying it. I went from blonde/brown to a red/purple color, which is a huge change. Scary and exciting! I am totally in love with my new hairstyle!! Special thanks to Ari! & her dog with whom I loved to cuddle during my session :) Also loved how she gave me advice about my hair on how to take care of it & what coloring shampoo I could use after to maintain the color so I don’t have to come back to do so every month but take more time! She said I could always ask her for advice if needed. Felt very genuine & would def recommend ✨

😐 I arrived a little late to my appointment (10 minutes) and was worried they wouldn’t take me. Thankfully, they did and I didn’t have to wait at all once I walked in. I had my hair cut by Luvena the owner, and I absolutely loved the look of the initial cut. She was able to shape it beautifully while...

😠 Argh I used to really like this place but she really thinned out and messed up my eyebrows. I’d been growing them out and she knows and I kept reminding her. I’m really sad about the amount she’s backtracked me on my eyebrow growth… I don’t really even understand the shape she’s given me. There’s a...

😠 I am new to Connecticut so I've been in search for a braiding salon. I wanted micro braids using wet n wavy human hair but this particular salon uses synthetic hair and dips it in water to get the curls. I was disappointed because my micros were not as small as I wanted them and as close together as...
