I have never had an expirience here that was bad. I am greeted warmly by the front desk staff, who are sooo nice. They offer me a drink, a pastry and a magazine every time I come in. The staff do get in conversations with each other but I love that about them. They all really like each other and get along so well. You can tell by the fun way they interact. There isn't any hate or tension or bad energy in there. They also include the clients in on the conversation, which is so nice. I have been to so many places around town where the staff is so snooty and they barely talk to the customer except when its time to pay. Sanctuary is different. They enjoy their work and their staff and their clients, and they don't cross the line into becoming one of those tacky gossipy loud places. Its very upscale but relaxed and friendly. I love it. And my hair has never looked better in my life since I started going there. I loved what Todd did for my hair, he took my hair (after it had been fried by another place) and in a two visits got it healthy again. I went to Shaun after that because Todd is really really booked and I my schedule doesn't let me make routine appts, I have to just call that day. I liked Shaun a lot too, but once when he was out of town I went to Heather and fell in love. She is terrific. I use her now because she makes my hair just as beautiful as Todd did, but her prices are lower and she is so friendly and fun. I have a great time with her. I have sent loads of family and co-workers there and they all had good expiriences. Its a really good salon. But I do have to say that they aren't skilled with rollers and sets. My mom is from that old school hair and she wanted a set, but Sanctuary just isn't that kind of place. They set her hair with a curling iron, but she really wanted rollers. So if you want that kind of hair, it probably isn't the place for you. As for prices, ask the front desk girl, they have diffrent price levels.
Pros: friendly people, beautiful hair, excellent gourmet coffee, easy to find
Cons: over sixty hair-no

I adore Sanctuary...because it is just that--a sanctuary! Every time I enter the salon I am treated as though I am the center of the universe (a nice treat at the end of a long day), and the staff is always respectful and friendly. I have never been disappointed with the outcome of any of my "do's"...even when I sit down and tell Todd to do whatever he wants. The atmosphere of the place is inviting and warm...just sitting in the waiting room makes me relax. I even had my hair done here for my wedding, and it was perfect. Anyone wanting a great haircut/color/etc. and a lovely afternoon should definitely visit Sanctuary!
Pros: ambience, quality of service, awesome staff, worth the cost if you've got the cash
Cons: is a little pricey
