AMAZING!!  That’s the only word I can think of to describe Ann Marie!! I had hair extensions done and I left The Loft feeling great!   This morning I left for work feeling confident and looking good!!   Ann Marie is so knowledgeable about what she does.

She explained everything to me from the process to the products. (I’m talking down to the molecules!)

My hair had a few different shades of blonde and even some brown.   Ann Marie customized each extension so that it would flawlessly blend with my color.    You can’t tell the different between the extensions and my natural hair.

She makes you feel comfortable and is so easy to gab with!   By the time I got home I already had an email with aftercare instructions and when I woke up this morning I had an email with a how-to for each of the products I went home with.   A cheat sheet that I can use until I’m familiar with them. As a bonus Ann Marie is inspiring!!   

She has the best stories and you can tell that she absolutely loves what she does. Her patience and attention to detail is astounding. 

Worth every penny!! 

I did a lot of research before I decided to go ahead with extensions and everything I came up with pointed to The Loft.  Thank you, Ann Marie!!!

“I found The Loft Salon studio during an on-line search while considering Hair Extensions. I’m from the Northern, CT area and I was planning to visit NYC or Boston for this service. However, I was able to see pictures of actual extension work on her site, and I planned a visit for a consultation as I was impressed to see such great work locally, without having to travel several hours.

I had a consult for extensions which was very thorough, included a written questionnaire, and I was able to see examples of different techniques. I was happy to find that Ann-Marie was certified in several different methods of hair extensions and was genuine in her recommendation of which method would best suit my need and hair type. 

I have now had three services, Hair Color, Japanese Straightening and Hair Extensions from The Loft Salon and Studio. I drive to NY to get my hair colored normally, and I do not have a local person, since I have had a long relationship with my colorist.

To be honest, I was more than a little nervous trusting someone new. I am happy to say that Ann-Marie has a very special eye for color. Ann-Marie was just proving a touch up to cover new growth, so it was critical that she matched what I already had.

She spent a lot of time carefully comparing my hair and available colors. To my surprise, she did a perfect job, and my base color and highlights were exactly right. I am not sure how hard it is to do this without knowing the brand, or colors used previously, but it was no problem for Ann-Marie. Secondly, a straightening process was recommended for my hair prior to extensions. I have chemically straightened my hair in the past, but never by the process that Ann-Marie suggested. I did a lot of research about the products, process and results prior to my service. Ann-Marie also did a great job here, my hair turned out as expected, and as she promised, I did have more time in the morning, now that I did not have to flat iron. I noticed that she was very careful during the process, and followed every step, to ensure a good outcome. Lastly, she installed my extensions. She did a fabulous job. I work in a corporate environment, and the length was quite a change. But the real test were my kids. She matched my hair color by expertly using (4) different extension colors, added highlights to extend my own, and it looked so natural that my kids, did not notice when I came home! Everyone has had positive comments.

 Overall, I liked that Ann-Marie’s booking system sends me emails and confirmation emails when I make an appointment. It also emails me receipts after my visit. She only takes one client at a time which makes for a very personal and focused visit. With my crazy schedule I know that when I make an appointment I don’t have to wait for her. She is ready and available when I walk in the door. Her salon is clean and modern, and she’s a great find for me, who is happy to find a local choice for services.””
