Darlene is the best!

I have only been to Darlene a couple of times but she is one of the few women @ the Saturn Club who didn't come off catty or rude. She listens to you and treats you like a human being. I have been to a few...

Worst Haircut Ever

The hip (aka shabby yet clean) decor is perhaps a nice change from some of the flashier (aka snobby) salons in center city. But I'll take snobbery and a higher price over a bad haircut any day. I got a cut and color from Mary. The color is great. But the hair cut is the worst ever, and possibly because she was more concerned about chatting with the other hairdressers on the floor than listening to me during the 'consultation'. Add rude receptionists to the mix and you've got a horrible experience.

Worst Haircut Ever

After reading all the positive reviews here I opted to try out the Saturn Club (I saw Alice) instead of my usual salon since it is closer to where I live. This was a terrible idea. My haircut is awful. It was...
