Tara is amazing! I have been going to see her for over 2 years now, and she slays my hair every time. She always gives me exactly what I am looking for and encourages me to take bold chances. We've done red, blonde, and extensions before! Stuff I would never trust with anyone else. Her work speaks for itself!
Tara is simply the BEST (period). She nails it EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. I have been having Tara do my hair for years and I trust and will continue to trust ONLY HER. I've gone blonde...I've gone dark...I've gone ashy...She can do it all! And bonus: she will not only give you the best cut, color, and style, but she is also SO fun to talk to. You will leave her chair SO encouraged and with AMAZING hair. Book an appointment ASAP - you won't regret it.
