Hair on Computer by Michael Joe

I was so excited to see Michael Joe and try it out his computer system that takes a picture of you and try some different hairstyles. It gives you a chance to see how you will look before that first cut. I cannot believe what a wonderful difference my new hairdo makes me feel. I have gotten so many compliments from friends and family that it boosted my self-​esteem. I have been told by a few people that I look 10 to 20 years younger. Thank you Michael Joe for helping me seeing how much better I look with a new hairstyle, I couldn’t be happier with the new me.

I visited Michael Joe on a whim in June — I was going to be in the area and looking for a trim along with help fading my box-​dyed hair into my roots.
First I called and asked if he could do it — he chuckled and told me it’s what he does (he wasn’t kidding). He also squeezed me into a Sunday spot — which was wonderful because he wasn’t usually open on a Sunday. He gave me light highlights that really helped fade the box blonde into my ashy blonde roots and looked great when grown out.
Plus, I really loved the cut — my hair was so bouncy and light (its very fine, dead straight hair, so I appreciate all the bounce I can get). It is now September and he squeezed me into another spot — i can’t wait for my bouncy blonde hair!

I have to be one of the most difficult gals out here that has to have hair just right and ususally throw a temper fit and then I go back to stylist to re do! When I walk out of salon, hair is great, UNTIL the next morning when I have to deal with it! I have been frustrated with my hair for years and starts my day off angry after 40 minutes styling and it looks horrible! MICHAEL JOE SAVED ME! As picky as I am, MICHAEL JOE sat me down and BOOM!!! MAGIC!!! I could not be more pleased! I went from 40 –50 minutes blowing this thick hair… and now… wash, shake, go!!! No blowing, no temper, no bad days, I have now, a EXCELLENT cut and style! His personality is sweet and talent great! Love you Mr. Michael Joe!

I went in last week for a trim and layers. My hair was the longest it had been in a long time and I just wanted to add style to it. My mom recommended him because she had gone to him when I was little and she remembered loving it. However Michael Joe is extremely outdated and full of himself. Instead of a trim he cut off six inches on the bottom layer and over a foot on the top layer. NOT A TRIM. He styled my hair in such a terrible way, I looked like I was in a terrible 80s film and I was worried I had a mullet. I was holding in tears the whole time and told him it was too short and he didn’t care. I reluctantly paid the $ 60 «for a long haircut» even though I said the word TRIM. And left and cried in the store next door before a woman who worked there told me to go back and ask for my money back. He had left the store because I was the only appointment he had for the day, so I called him. After convincing him that he robbed me of so much of my hair and sense of self he agreed to give me my money back. However I still don’t have it back and I don’t have my hair either. He has stopped answering my calls. He is a self-​important coward that relies on the success of his younger days. But now he is just an old man with a limp and 1 chair in a mediocre salon.

I was referred to Michael Jo by a well known local TV broadcaster about a year ago so I thought I would give him a try. I haven’t had so many compliments for years. While I didn’t use the computer, I have short hair and his cut and coloring has never been less than perfect and it has been many years since I have been so consistently pleased. He is a keeper for me.

I schedule an appointment AFTER explaining that I was interested in the computerised imaging that enables you to see how you would look in different hair styles and you even take these images home with you. I explained to him that I lived way across town and would have to get a ride there but was willing to do it. I made it to my appointment on time and the first thing he said was I didn’t think you was going to show up because of the rain. I explained that if I wasn’t going to show up I would have called and rescheduled it. It took him awhile to get set up for me. Couldn’t find the computer. Eventually found it and then he mentions I am charging you only $ 45 but I usually charge $ 55 but since I don’t have a printer I made it cheaper. I was so disappointed and upset because I wanted the images that the ads talk about. I asked him why he failed to mention that when I made the appointment. He said because I figured you could just take a picture with your cell phone. I went off on him and left. I had to pay my friend for gas to go all the way across town and treat him to lunch to make it worth his while. All to be told I wouldn’t have the pictures that I made clear I wanted when making the appointment. I would give them NO stars if I could but I had to give them a star. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go there. And am making sure everyone I know doesn’t waste their time and money for nothing. Poorest service ever.

I have been going to Michael Joe for the past 21 years since he was originally at the shop on Fulton Avenue. Michael performed the Hair on Computer on me. I went from very long hair to very short. That’s a huge drastic change but he made it look easy only because he has the finesse and the experience to make you look gorgeous. I live in Elk Grove and continue to see him at least once a month for a haircut, perm or color. Go to Michael Joe for your hair needs with confidence! He will definitely take care of you!!!

Michael Joe has been doing hair for a long time and it shows! He is fantastic with difficult hair (thick, wavy, frizzy, etc.) and he will be honest with you as to what will or won’t work with your hair.
He also does amazing wedding and special event hair designs. Has done several beauty pageants and is fairly well known for his beautiful style creations.
I would certainly recommend him!

Went and got my hair done great fast friendly service and it’s nice the like to joke around and have fun. Nice change
