Annalee is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend booking a consultation, that way we were able to work out a price that was right for me. It took her about 2 hours to lighten, color and tone my hair. I had been lightening my hair myself for about 1.5 years and needed to even everything out. Annalee completely understood my vision and I couldn’t be happier!

Densy did such a great job with my hair. After straightening my hair most of my life I decided to embrace my curls and she did such an amazing cut! She took her time with the small details, and explained along the way what she was doing so I could learn how to style and maintain it. And the scalp massage during the shampoo was sooo nice!

Abby was wonderful! She was so kind and knew exactly what I wanted when I explained what type of cut I was looking for. She took her time and made me feel very comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire experience. I would recommend her to any of my friends! The salon had an incredibly welcoming front desk staff that immediately asked if I wanted anything to drink while I waited. I’m typically a once a year haircut type of woman, but I might make an exception to go back to this salon more often!
