Finding Michelle at Bella Rio was a godsend! I had previously endured a few hair-butchers (you couldn't call them hair cuts) that left my curly hair super chunky. I have never encountered anyone so confident with curly hair, and the confidence is well-founded. She got my hair looking 100% better by the end of the first hair cut and had a long-term vision to get my hair looking great as I've been wanting to grow it out. She works with what you want and knows how to change things up with chunky or more subtle highlights or the Brazilian Blowout (smoothing treatment). I don't know what I'm going to do when I leave Lansing!

I stopped going to her. All she wanted to do was a short, curly bob. I have a wide square face so a short curly bob does NOT flatter me, and she gave me the worst color of my life. Seriously, the first time was WAY too dark. The second time was much lighter and she didn't do anything to make it seem like I didn't have a big stripe around my short-curly-bobbed head. Don't go to her!

I stopped someone at work with beautiful curly hair and asked her where she got it cut. She told me about Faith at Bella Rio in Old Town Lansing. I immediately made an appointment. It's a beautiful salon and the haircut I got was great. I've had my hair done in NYC at Devachan and by Megan at Serendipity in Ann Arbor. NYC is way too far for a regular trip and Ann Arbor is quite a drive for me as well (Megan is still great though!) Faith herself has gorgeous curly hair and I felt very confident sitting down in her chair without even knowing her. I will definitely be returning. I think she has a myspace page.
