4 Seasons Salon in Grass Valley, CA

I called ahead to see if someone could fit me in today. Maddie was available and was very friendly and proficient in giving my hair a much needed trim.

I'm very picky with who I let touch my hair. I decided I wanted bangs (quite a bold move for someone who's picky) after just moving to the area. It was Halloween day, I figured I'd just see if they had anyone available and they did! I ended up getting sat down with Maddy- she gave me bangs and trimmed my hair. She is super sweet. Very funny. Knows what she's doing. I lagged going back, but I went back a few days ago and yesterday to again have Maddy play with my hair. She offered her opinions, gave tips/advice. Very open to answering questions and didn't seem to get bothered, which is an A + in my book. Cuts are around 20 bucks (may differ per stylist) but I have been happy leaving the 3 times I've gone there so far and I swear however Maddy cuts my hair - somehow is magically grows super fast and I'm a-okay with that! Maddy is awesome!

Wren is the best and sweetest hair lady. I walked in at 3 pm (not realizing their walk-in hours close at 4 pm) and asked if she could do me the kindest favor: cutting my dear dreads after over 6 years with them. First she couldn't believe that I wanted them gone- not short, but gone. She asked many times if I was sure I wanted to cut them and I said yes. She said she had someone coming in within the hour but that she would start me anyways. Wren was gentle and worked with me to get the hair that I wanted. We talked and she even said she felt like she was doing something wrong by cutting them, I assured her she wasn't. Cut, washed, buzzed, clipped, an hour later I was free. She did an amazing job with my hair and I would highly recommend her to anyone I know. She only charged me $20 even considering how long my hair was. A cozy little place, don't mind the partial "unfinished" look of the salon, they are in the process of fixing it up.

Jessie does a good haircut. She's upped her price to 20. She hasn't gotten back to me for several hours after I left a message on the machine.

So Chad ended up being kinda weird, and didn't stick around long, but now I frequently see Jesse (the owner). I have to tell you, she is basically part of the family now. She cuts my wife's hair as well, and knows everything going on in our lives. She is great, doesn't try to push you to do something new (I have had stylists that have done that in the past), or push product on you to buy, she just does whatever you want while making slight suggestions here and there. They did have to raise the prices, and she did move to only taking appointments, but she has other hairdressers on staff and they are typically available to take walk ins when able to. Great local business that I highly suggest that everyone supports!
