hi Adriana! Thanks so much for letting me know the real deal...I'm glad to hear that the whole experience made a lot more sense than the way it was told to me. I assumed that I was hearing the story from the horse's mouth, but you're totally right--fact-checking is always in order. So you've restored a little of my faith in humanity (or at least in Vogue). And I'll be back for a trim really soon...my bangs are starting to poke my eyes. Best -- MG

I know its a bit late but I just discovered this. Although this is really funny somethings just aren't right. I work at sugar, co-own it, and I feel like we need to make some corrections here.
I do give really good blow outs. I also do dry hair cuts that are technically not really dry. Its more of a barber style cut. You sit down, tell me what you want, I spray you down with my water bottle and proceed to cut. Then I pick up my trusty blow dryer and finish the service with a little styling product.
As for the "photoshoot", this is what really happened. Vogue called and asked to do a feature on us, we were in shock because we're not really a vogue type of shop. They say we wanna do a photo shoot at your space, do you have any clients that are of vogue stature? I ask what does that mean? So I ask my most vogue like clients, girls who posses a classic beauty, and by the time we got back to them it was too late and they couldn't do it anymore. As for the receptionist, she worked their for almost six months which granted isn't a super long time but its' longer than a week.
I'm stoked you got a good cut and that you wanna tell people about it but you should do a little fact checking yourself. Your just making people seem like they're assholes when they're not.

I know nothing about the La area, but It's funny how all the snobby people find out the salons not in the heart of La and get scared. It's also funny that people actually take what Vogue says to heart. I personally rarely read anything from Vogue, but buy it every month because the pictures are so pretty!

hahaha oh my gosh that is soo frickin hilarious. Nice fact checking indeed. The last time my boss ventured over to silverlake for a show he was convinced his car was going to get stolen. He left early from Spaceland because he didnt want someone to heist it. Silverlake is TAME!! Youre more likely to get mugged in west hollywood than in silverlake.
