This review is regarding to Heidi Zabel, the hairstylist of Rachel's Esthetics. Heidi rents a chair at the salon. I met her a few weeks after I moved to the Island, late October 2017. I found her as a good hairstylist and also fast. That's what kept me with her for 3 sessions. However, I was noticing things that ended my visits with Heidi. 1. Inconsistency in her rates. For the same treatment I was always paying different price. And each and every time higher one 2. Dishonesty about the products; She would not tell me what she uses on my hair. The most I got what the company name, but never the exact formula. After I left her, I asked numerous times to get the formula of the base she used on my hair. No answer. Considering, I was a paying customer and not allowed to know what was used on my hair is almost unbelievable. 3. Charging high price for something that doesn't work; Heidi put "touch of lavender" color on my freshly bleached hair, charged $150 and the color was gone after the first rinse and I use high end hair products. I left for a vacation shortly after the session, so I sent her an email about my dissatisfaction, being detailed about it, but Heidi never replied, 4. Unprofessional attitude; Heidi told me (during my last visit) that Rachel and her like to gossip (!?). It was concerning the locations they recently changed; Heidi said, the previous place was better for gossiping... I was stunned with this comment, because I never lived in a small town and I had not interest to be part of women's rumors. I am, in my decades of entering different hair stylist in different cities and countries, first time very unhappy with Heidi's service. I spoke to her prior to this review about everything that is being written here. And repeatedly I asked about the hair color brand / formula. No direct answer. Leaving Heidi has one amazingly positive side; finding a fantastic hairstylist that has professionalism, skills and passion. I'd travel miles to have my hair done by her. Read Less

This is one of the worst women to deal with. Didn't listen to my requests and her and her partner were non stop gossiping. It was so tacky and trashy. The only poisitve is Autumn's sickly sweet voice which is so ungenuine. I will defintily come back and try another salon but my word, this was a disgrace! Read Less
