This was honestly such a nice experience! It's the first time I've dyed my hair not at home and everyone was so wonderful! Casandra worked on my hair and oh my gosh she was amazing she was so fun and upbeat! I was a bit tired so I feel bad but she was so kind, she was there with me for almost 6 hours. She did an incredible job, and the instructors were amazing as well. I highly recommend her if you come she is honestly the best person there I will 100% come back just because of her alone. But on top of that the front desk lady was amazing as well! She made it feel so nice and welcoming the second you walked in and all I can say is this is an amazing place!

Bella gave me the most amazing Microcurrent Facial. I was pleasantly surprised when I looked at myself in the mirror after. Bella is very knowledgeable and gave me great advice on what would work best for me. I cannot wait to come back and have it done again. She is so understanding, patient and easy to talk with. Colby at the front desk and managers are always extremely helpful and friendly. I feel amazing after leaving and get many compliments. Thank you and God bless each of you.
