I got my hair done for prom by Chelsea!(sorry if i misspelled🥲) She did an amazing job i absolutely love it I got like a red/purple color and layers. She was so sweet🥹 the service was amazing i felt so comfortable and i loved it because i’m usually a shy person when it comes to new places and new people. My confidence definitely went up. i’ve been getting compliments left and right and getting told who ever did my hair did a great job. Overall I definitely recommend Milan!☺️
