I recently moved to Shoreview and started looking for a hair salon. After searching several in my neighborhood I found Hair On Earth which offered a short bio of their stylists listing their areas of expertise. I read them all and chose Brooke because of my cut and color preferences. When I met Brooke, she spent time asking me about what I was looking for and giving me the opportunity to explain what I do to style my hair. When she finished with the color and cut, I knew I had made the right decision because I had been seeing my previous stylist for 27 years and to find someone to step right in and have me walk out being completely happy was amazing. Not only is Brooke a great stylist, she’s friendly, personable, and seriously interested in finding out what you are looking for.

I typically go to a hair school because I can't afford a full foil but since they made a mistake the last time I went there and I didn't want to jeopardize my hair I decided to give this place a chance and I'm so glad I did. First the cost is much more reasonable than other salons for a foil. I met with Jenny who has over 30 years of experience and she was great. She heard what I said and delivered. I love the haircut she gave me too and she was up front with me on what may come up as an issue of I chose another haircut style. I appreciated this as I have other stylists tell me they would do something but didn't and then explained why they couldn't. I no longer have to sit for hours at the hair school and can get my hair done at a peaceful salon, thanks Jenny!

Anna,
I am so happy you love your hair and experience with Jenny. Your words embodied the exact culture we strive for. Jenny is a very talented stylist, who loves what she does. Thank you for the very kind words. It means a great deal to us.
