Editorial Review for American Mortals – by Lynn Allan
In Short
Behind a huge storefront window off Washington Square, a simple yet edgy space sets the scene for, well, simple yet edgy hair cuts. Working under a philosophy of comfort and cool, hip young professionals and tiny tots getting their first snip fill the chairs of stylists dedicated to finding the cut that is "you." Also laid back are the prices, with adult cuts starting at $35 and color starting at $50.

Reader beware- the AM review titled "My Hair Founds Its Soulmate" (posted on 7/30/08) is almost IDENTICAL to a review posted for Salon Ricochet on 8/21/06 (including the grammar error). Hmmm... Sounds more like a "review" posted by a disgruntled ex-emplyee rather than an actual customer.

A friend recommended Sandi at American Mortals after a BAD hair mishap at another salon [hint: SR]. I couldnt have found a better hair savior. Not only did she fix my hair, she gave me an amazing cut. I have gotten more compliments on this haircut than any other. Plus, like someone below said, it grows out SO well. As long as Im in Philly, Sandi is my hair soul mate! The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The salon is super cute and in a really accessible location. There are always lots of rad magazines and treats.
Pros: Amazing Cuts, Great Prices, Unpretentious Environment
Cons: El Fuego is down the street!
