MCN Salon in Pittsburgh, PA

Lydia was wonderful! She was attentive, efficient and did an amazing job with coloring and cutting my hair. I appreciated how she listened carefully to my requests to ensure the dye did not get on my skin and how many inches to trim. Her friendly demeanor made the overall experience enjoyable. Looking forward to continue going to Lydia in the future!

Let's start with that a haircut for most is an intimately personal experience where many details can incredibly wrong and incredibly right depending on in-going expectations, your mood, what happened to you on the drive in or earlier in the day before even getting to the salon for the cut. Luckily. I had a fantastic experience. I went to Jim who cuts my friends hair so I had an understanding what his work looks like for at least a year before I went myself. I went on a special day - Jim had just turned a milestone! Congratulations! So he has been cutting hair for decades. The consultation was considerate. He wanted to originally cut off less than what I nudged him to do. I came in with. Mid length hair, wave, hadn't been cut in a few months, about 3 inches below my shoulders that I have had since my mid 20s. I left with a shoulder length, minimally layered job that will curl a bit shorter than im used to. The entire process he kept checking in with me making sure I was okay with where we were going in the process. It was ensured that I was having a good customer experience every touchpoint of the way. Besides just getting a good haircut, Jim is a genuinely nice, pleasant, personable person who was kind of my feelings while also sharing just where he needed to. I was also lucky that all coordination went well. I had a nice conversation with the girl who shampooed me. Every girl who came to check on me was courteous. The appointment was an hour. A little extra boost was to get compliments within the first half an hour to get it done. Which is just very nice. I will definitely ckm again

So I have been coming here since MCN was located in the Strip on Smallman Street. I went based off of reviews and everyone seemed to mention Kara (who is no longer w/ the Salon) I am sure she is doing big things. Regardless, MCN moved on the 3rd floor across from whole foods above the starbucks. Same great service just different interior. I now see Kristen for my color, she is great and knows what she is doing and isn't pushy when it comes to buying products. MCN is now located on the 2nd level across from the old Whole Foods!

Yea! Thanks for an awesome visit! It was so great and I love my haircut very much!!!!

Well... unfortunately I will not be going back to MCN after my recent haircut. 1. I have a very simple blunt one layer bob and explicitly requested no layers. My stylist cut a lot of layers including a sloped back and top layers shorter than the bottom layer. When I asked her mid cut if she was cutting layers she denied it when it was very obvious and will now take me months to grow out what my husband called a bad soccer mom cut. 2. She rushed through the appointment, total time spent was about 40 minutes with only 10-15 of that being cutting time. 3. Small potatoes but I was billed $75 instead of the $70 listed on the website- making it a $90 cut with tip! Way too high of a price for the rushed bad service. Edit: reduced to 1 star from 2. After living with this cut for a few days it is apparent how truly choppy and rushed it was. I will have to grow it out and then go somewhere else.
