This review is for Nicole. I have never posted a review about anything before but my experience yesterday at Therapy probably changed my life. I had consulted there before (over a year ago) but never committed until now. In my car on my way to the appointment, 2 minutes from the salon, I was in a traffic accident with a bike (she was thankfully uninjured) so I arrived feeling completely shaken up, guilty, and upset at myself. Nicole was up front - I didn't realize at the time... she was the manager, I just thought she was a very understanding and caring stylist up at the desk between clients or something who listened to my story, wished me well, then went about her way. Later, Tasha* is almost done with my hair and I see Nicole come back in carrying a bouquet of flowers - FOR ME. She also left a bar of chocolate and card with a lovely hand-written note. Crying, I kind of felt worse because it wasn't like I was the one who got hit by a car! Her note and gesture were extremely kind, and I didn't realize at the time but my soul needed her words. I hold high expectations for customer service, and I have tried some good salons here in Charlotte so far. But I will never forget the grace and love Nicole granted me, a stranger, on what could have been a much worse day. This was my first visit to Therapy, and I promise it won't be my last. *A note about Tasha. I was a little worried at first that she was running off schedule, but ended up being grateful for it so I could get myself together. I am in the growing out stage of a pixie cut (read: 10th circle of Hell) but Tasha was patient, analytical, empathetic, and optimistic when it came to making my haircut into that of a person getting back to their "normal". I have gotten several compliments just since yesterday, and while it's going to take a little more growing to be just right, she definitely gave me a cut I can work with and feel confident with.
