Outstanding Job! I got my hair done by Erin and she did awesome! She was so gentle with my hair and explained the process as we went along. It took about 4 and a half hours to get it done and I payed $55. I would definitely recommend and I will be going back to her for sure!

So first off, this is my second review and I just want to add some more photos to show you guys how great of a job they did, Background: I did my hair at home with sallys bleach and it got messed up really bad and then my friend told me to go here because she told me they do hair really good, so I listened. I went in , they were extremely kind and friendly, Perla and Mrs. Jen took care of me right away, they looked at my hair and discussed the realistic results id be able to get and then came up with a really good plan on how to fix what ive done to my hair the pricing was insanely good, Taylor and Perla got started on highlighting my hair they did my whole entire head each layer with precision and knew exactly what to do, they did such a precise and technical job on my head and blended the super harsh line i had created, they worked on my hair for about 3 hours and took no break in between they worked so hard on my hair which i really appreciate and mrs jen was checking on it every few minutes as well i felt very taken care of, then we got to toning and root melt part, Emma and Maddy did an amazing job on that, they got the root melt exactly right, i wanted 1/2 an inch from my roots they did exactly that, and finally when everything was finished, Emma cut my hair beautifully and didn't cut more than I asked she did wonderful and made sure to take care of what I wanted, overall everything turned out BETTER than I expected, absolutely wonderful!!! Credits to: Mrs Jen - Instructor Perla - Highlighted my hair Taylor - Highlighted my hair Emma - Toned, root melt, wash , haircut, and dry Maddy - Toned, root melt, wash
