I found illusion real beauty on instagram, I had my haircut about a week ago, I booked with Edel. Edel was awesome I am going through a lot personally so that’s why I wanted a haircut anyways and Edel was very friendly she allowed me to talk like as if we weren’t even strangers that met for the first time she gave me great advice she was honestly a joy to be around. As far as the haircut I left feeling very beautiful I got many compliments throughout the day I just loved it the haircut the blowout she gave me everything about the haircut itself was beautiful. I left feeling really good about myself and I still do a week later. I smiled the entire day.

After weeks of trying to find the right salon, I came across Illusion Beauty with Briana and her team and couldn’t be happier with my decision and experience. Briana took the time to explain everything she was going to do before even starting, which made me feel at ease. She went above and beyond during the blow-dry, and her cutting technique with my long hair was precise and diligent. It’s rare to find a hairstylist who truly cares about a true transformation. I’m so grateful for the result and believe I found my forever hair salon. Communication is easy, prices are fair, and talent is endless at this salon so look no further!!
