I just had a Keratin treatment at UCAS McAllen. Andrea was so professional and did a fabulous job. I loved how she took the time to make sure my hair turned out like I wanted. Oh and the previous day I got my haircut with Alejandra. I got a wonderful service and I am very satisfied. Nice job ladies! Everyone is always so positive and friendly there.
