Adorable little salon in one of my favorite complexes of East Nashville. I’ve had Gracyn do a blowout several times for me now and she is one of my favorites for a truly bouncy, smooth blowout that will last me a few days. Blowouts should be luxurious and Darling salon uses my legitimate favorite Italian brand of shampoos/conditioners (Davines - and I’m a real snob about hair care products.) Gracyn gives, hands down, the best head massage I have ever had. Sometimes I want to come here for a blowout simply because I know her head massage while washing my hair will eliminate my troubles. She’s skilled with a blow dryer in that rare way where she won’t use hot tools unless absolutely necessary for your hair type and requested style, which I really appreciate and she’s just very low key and relaxed throughout the whole process (the right amount of friendly but not a constant chatterbox), making it just a lovely way to unwind all around. Absolutely worth it to come here and with standard blowouts ranging $45+, this is also one of the most reasonably priced places to get a high quality styling.
