Mark TRANSFORMS hair suffering from poor cut & color

by ltdallas at Citysearch

I went to Mark after receiving a botched cut and tacky looking color from a popular Dallas salon. Feeling down about the look (and not to mention the wasted

$$$) I called Mark. He was booked solid, but could sense how desperate I was due to some important work commitments around the corner.

Mark stayed late the next evening to accommodate my schedule & accomplished what I consider a hair miracle! By really listening to what I wanted and using his color expertise, he was able to alter my poor color job and transform my locks to a natural, shiny color. Next, he took the time to run through my head of hair strand by strand and fix the botched cut job while preserving the length. The result was increased movement and volume. l am so happy with the outcome - exactly what I wanted before the bad experience I had gone through prior to visiting Mark's Studio 23. Definitely will be claiming Mark as my new stylist!

• Pros: Color and cut correction

Mark is truly unique and awesome

by GaPeach at Citysearch

Today was my 1st visit with Mark and this will be the 1st time I have ever commented after "just one visit". Mark did an absolutely fantastic job coloring my hair (well, truth be told, correcting what I attempted). He gives you ALL of his attention and makes suggestions but never tries to "oversell" or make you feel dumb about what you tried on your own.

Mark is so personable. He is one of the few hairstylists I can honestly say I have enjoyed talking to and listening to. His sincerity and genuine concern to give you exactly what you want is undeniable.

I will definitely recommend him to my friends and co-workers and was sure to make my next appt before I left. He is unique and talented and not over-priced that you have to blink and catch your breath when you find out what it costs. I am one happy client.

• Pros: Great with color, knows his stuff, great personality

Great colorist & stylist

by lkbous at Citysearch

I haven't been in Dallas very long. I tried a salon in uptown and found that location & status are nothing when looking for a stylist (after years of the same stylist in LA). My old stylist told me to look for someone who uses Matrix, so I researched from that standpoint and found Mark. Mark spoke on the phone with my previous stylist to get formulas/colors that she had used and did a wonderful job. Mark is very personable and it's obvious that he really knows his business. I also really like the way he styled my hair afterwards, I have always gone home & restyled my hair in the past.

• Pros: Personable & very knowledgeable

GREAT Hairdresser!!

by MaryKK at Citysearch

Mark Young has been doing my hair for 20 years. Over these many years, he’s taken me through short, spiky styles to long, flowing layers and everything in between! This entire time he’s also been coloring my hair. We’ve been through highlights, lowlights, semi-permanent color, to finally permanent color to cover that stubborn grey! Mark is very knowledgeable about hair, hair products, and chemical processes. My hair is challenging in that it is very thick, coarse texture, and wavy; if left on its own it would rival Bozo the Clown! But Mark knows exactly what hair styles, hair lengths, products, and styling methods are best for me to enable me to manage my mane into a beautiful style that is both flattering and head turning. If Mark can manage my hair, he can manage anything! We’ve had some great conversations over the first 20 years and I look forward to the next 20 with Mark. I consider Mark to be not only an awesome hairdresser, but also a good friend.
