Jay Dick Hairstylist

I came to Jay because I saw her deal she was running on groupon. It was pretty much a shot in the dark because I am fairly new to Los Angeles, and I just looked for salons that were close to my work. I am so happy I stumbled upon Jay. She did a balayage and it came out wonderfully. I receive compliments on my «beachy mermaid hair» all the time now. Not only is she great at what she does but she is truly a joy to converse with. Sometimes stylists are difficult to talk with, but not Jay! She had me laughing so hard. I will definitely be coming back to D’Arte salon next time I need anything done with my hair. Thanks Jay!

I love this girl! She has taken my hair from dark to light… and back to dark. She knows how to work with color and doesn’t give me grief about how much hair I have. (Sorry!) She does my Brazilian Blowouts which I absolutely love because I have frizzy hair and I have become addicted to it. She sold me the shampoo and conditioner too, cheaper than I could find it anywhere else. She is absolutely wonderful with color and cuts and one of the sweetest people I have met.

DO NOT let Jamice Jay Dick go anywhere near your hair. I purchased her groupon for a cut, style & balayage at the D’Arte Salon. She has absolutely no integrity. She seems friendly at first but is in fact a greedy liar who has no business working in the hair industry.
I was VERY clear about what I wanted and showed her many photos. Even though Jamice rushed through my cut and style, this review is mainly about the Balayage highlights I received as well as her horrid customer service. I have blackish/​brown hair and wanted to add some light brown balayage highlights. I told her I did not want it to look orange or brassy, that was my number one concern. Before even beginning she said that because my hair was dark I would need a second session to get to the color I wanted. I understood and was fine with coming in and paying for another session (even though some stylists are skilled enough to do it in one session, I figured she didn’t want to spend the time doing so since I had a groupon).
My 1^st bleaching/​toning session came out horrible. She bleached a big section at the back of my head and barely bleached my front sections. It didn’t blend at all and was not what I had asked for, unfortunately I didn’t realize how horrible it was until I got home. It was very brassy, but I had expected it to be since she said she wouldn’t be able to get all of the brassiness out until my second appointment. By this time I had already scheduled my second session with her (big mistake. I honestly should have known not to go back to her) and hoped she would be able to fix it to what I actually wanted as well as go lighter as we had talked about prior.
During my 2^nd appt I told her I was unhappy with the unevenness of color, she took no accountability and blamed me, saying I had told her I didn’t want as much color in the front (completely untrue, who would ever just want to color the back of their head?). She said she would correct it as well as lift the brassiness and get me to the color I wanted. She bleached/​toned my hair again, hours later it got lighter but also became A LOT more orange then before.
I definitely left unhappy but she said it would get lighter in a couple days. So I decided to wait and see. Two days later, the toner has worn off and my hair looks 10x more orange than when I left the salon. Just horrible. I called the salon right away and wanted Jamice to fix it. Now onto my 3^rd appt. Jamice gave me attitude the moment I walked in and said she won’t work on my hair for free and it’ll cost me if I want her to fix it. You want me to pay you to do a color correction on your own mistakes? Are you serious? I refuse to keep paying someone to ruin my hair. The bleach was not left in long enough to get past the brassy stage and that’s her own fault. She began raising her voice and accusing me of not being sure of what I wanted done to my hair. It was early in the morning and she had no problem being extremely rude to me while no one else was around. I was shocked that a stylist would ever speak to a client like this.
(1.) She lied about not being able to get my hair as light as she could have during my 1^st appt. She had no problem lightening the front sections that weren’t bleached at all during the 1^st session, but was still able to get it just as light as the hair that actually was bleached before. (2.) She did this so I would have to come back and pay for another bleaching session. (3.) my hair was still brassy and orange, even though she guaranteed me it wouldn’t be after my 2^nd appt. (4.) She tried to up-​charge me an extra $ 30 than the price she quoted me while knowing exactly what I wanted and how much hair I had.
As I mentioned earlier, she blamed me for her not bleaching the front sections of my hair during my 1^st appt. Well I brought it up again during my 3^rd appt and this time she said she didn’t bleach the front because it was damaged from all the blow drying and curling I do. excuse me? I have naturally wavy hair and never, and I mean never blow dry or curl/​straighten my hair. After telling me multiple times how healthy my hair was when I first came to her, she has the nerve to lie (yet again) straight to my face.

Jay has been a miracle worker with hair. She changed my hair from dry and braking to soft and healthy. She also really helped me learn how to style my hair while its in that awkward not short enough but not long enough stage as well.
She is a great listener and wonderful at knowing just what you need. She is the only person I trust with my hair.

Jay Dick is the best hairstylist I’ve ever had. She is friendly, knowledgeable and makes my hair look fabulous. I highly recommend her to anyone. The salon was very clean and professional. I will definitely be going back to Jay. She is awesome!
