I wanted to get my hair layered for the first time and knew I needed to find a great stylist. I am so happy I found Kim at Legends, she gave me the perfect cut and was so friendly. Months later and my layers are still intact, I couldn't be more pleased. I can't wait to go back for a touch up trim next time!

I came in with split ends, grown out blonde balayage and dead broken hair, however I left with healthy, layered, natural looking brunette hair! I'm so happy Kim Pappas & Jessika could resurrect my hair. I would highly recommend checking out legends hair salon! You will not be disappointed.

To start off they didn't answer the phone so I left a voicemail they didn't get back to me for another week. The woman on the phone had a very short attitude and I brushed it off. Then when I finally came in for my appointment I see only trimmed out like I asked who is very dull scissors and shaky hands then when she asked How I like my hair styled I said straight and then she proceeded to curl my hair. Then she charged me 85+ tip which came out to 105 honestly it wasn't worth it because you can't even tell I got a haircut. But the owner did reach out to me to try to make it right which I appreciate.

My first visit to Legends was over 2 years ago and my stylist was Brooke Rivera. Decision time......"How would you like your hair cut and styled today?" I wanted a new look which usually involved cutting length off, which I have been reluctant to do since forever. I asked her can you cut my hair and style it in a similar fashion as yours is? She said "yes," which I replied let's do it. When she was finished it was about at my shoulders in front and tapered slightly upwards to the back, with just enough highlights to frame my face. Seriously, I have not had this many compliments about my hair in quite a long while, and what a difference it made in my appearance. Needless to say I have been a faithful client since. When you meet someone who can read your facial shape and create a style and or look to compliment you, keep them. Even as time changes our looks, Brooke still gets it right. It's wonderful to have a stylist who knows what to do for you and then creates the color and style perfect for you. I highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a new, great hair stylist.

I want to go on record as saying that I don't like writing negative reviews. Having worked in the customer service industry for the majority of my career, I know that people tend to only remember the bad and we need to celebrate positivity. But this review was earned and it is about a stylist there, not about the salon which is very clean, light and bright, however I don't intend to ever see it again. This stylist is popularly there and the salon raves about him. Seeing the images he posts, I had high hopes and a level of confidence that I don't normally have. Being new to the area, I thought I was making a solid decision with him. I couldn't have been more wrong and my advice is that if you have fine hair, DO NOT GO TO ANYONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE THE PATIENCE TO TAKE THE TIME TO PROCESS YOUR FINE HAIR AND WILL MAKE UNPROFESSIONAL DECISIONS ABOUT CHEMICALS FOR YOUR HAIR. My hair broke off and I can only imagine what it looked like for him in the sink when he was rinsing it - it must have been shocking. But let's go back in time for a moment on how we got to this point: my first appt with said stylist was positively wonderful - I have fine hair and had grown it out for a few years to ensure it was "pure" and ready for highlighting which I only wanted to try to blend a few subtle grays. Knowing my reservations, I think he was considerate about being conservative during this visit and I walked out of their LOVING my hair - I told him that no matter what, I only ever wanted to highlight around my face and I thought that this request would carry over into our future processes together. However when I returned for a root touchup 3 months later and said I was thinking about "more" (in the areas around my face that had been highlighted) and gave him free reign on doing what he thought might look good, I was SO disappointed when he basically highlighted my whole head to below my ears. I thought to myself, "maybe he is doing some small highlights so it "fades" and blends better??" but I admit that I never asked the question during the process bc I just sort of thought that he was the professional and he is going to make me look beautiful. But when it was done, which was FAST for highlighting (1.5hr), it was SO NOT what I was wanting or had asked for and definitely not what my fine hair could handle. Needless to say when he had finished blowdrying I looked at my hair and noticed how mousy and limp it suddenly looked, and BRASSY (not a word anyone getting highlights wants to describe their hair!!). I had previously STOPPED coloring my hair for 2 years prior, and also chopped my hair from mid back to shoulder length knowing that the highlighted path was probably where I'd be taking my hair as it transitioned into getting grays. To arrive to this outcome was not part of the plan. But I didn't want to say anything, I just wanted to get the heck out of there and inspect in the privacy of my own mirror. I didn't want to overreact in front of his face. But in the car on my drive home I ran my fingers through my hair and, OMG, I realized I had lost a huge volume of hair - it was so remarkably fine! The roots were sticking to my head and the strands were limp and stringy. There was no reason why my hair should have been highlighted as much it is had been #1, but I did tell him to do what he felt would look good so I accept responsibility for that. But he made a choice in the chemicals he would use to try to achieve the highlight AND he fast forwarded the highlight process, compacting it into a 1.5 hr time period. Never in the history of all of my highlights has a highlight ever occurred on my head in less than 6 hours. 6 HOURS compacted to 1.5 HOURS??! This stylist is NOT A PROFESSIONAL. With fine hair, you AVOID bleach as much as possible.. or you make it a slowwwwww process. I had also told him in the beginning that I wanted to try to avoid bleach bc I didn't think my hair could handle it. He seemed to think it could and this is the result. Now my hair i

Was looking for a salon near me... literally was very close to me, and as a first time client, I was beyond elated at the results. I needed a haircut (my COVID cut). They were able to take me in the same day I called. They knew exactly what I wanted; worked around my existing highlights, and gave me a cut that blew my mind! Not even 24hrs, and already receiving many compliments!! Brook is AMAZING!! Super detailed, attentive, and one of the sweetest people I’ve met! As is everyone there! The salon is beautiful, clean and sanitized, and cozy looking. LOVE MY CUT, and definitely going back!

Just the last Thursday, Legends Hair opened up and I was able to book an appointment with Brooke for this Saturday. Amidst the chaos of COVID-19, she and the rest of the salon took all necessary requirements to be able to open up for business. Upon arrival Brooke took my temperature and both of us sanitized. She then proceeded to inform me of what they are doing before, during, and after each client to ensure they are following all guidelines and ensuring both mine and their safety from any exposure. So, of course, I felt at ease and excited to have my hair appointment. I last had a haircut about a year ago, so I wanted to keep the short length, but clean it up. She went right to work. For the first time in a salon, I didn't have to get up and trot across the room to get my hair washed. Low and behold, part of the styling bar folded up to have the sink right there. It is such a minor thing, and yet I thought it was so convenient and creative! So with a swivel of the chair I was getting my hair washed. She used a Redken mixture and it smelt so good. However, the massage she gave was the best part! It was so relaxing!! While cutting my hair, she was so gentle and precise. You could tell she's been at this for a while, and she admitted (when I asked) that's she's been doing this since she graduated high school. When you love something you stick with it, right? Overall, I had a great experience with Brooke. I didn't realize that I needed to be pampered and Brooke did a great just making me feel welcome, relaxed, and beautiful! Thank you for a great job! I'll be back :)

Hair stylist was very sweet and gave me a great shampoo and deep conditioning . Unfortunately, she did not give me what I wanted when it came to cutting hair. My bangs look a bit ridiculous now and did not give me the layers I asked her to. She also did not thoroughly blowdry my hair, leaving crimped bumps all over my hea .
