“I had a color "accident" -- bright pink totally inappropriate for my age or my upcoming work trip Back East. Went to Mia in distress for a corrective color consult. Her advice was to wait for it to fade. It did! She clearly knows her stuff, how hair reacts, different types of hair and dye... In the end, I didn't need corrective color. Mia steered me right, and earned my respect and appreciation for her skills and ethics. I'd go back in a heartbeat. But I think I'll stay away from hair color for a while. :)“

“Naomi is amazing! I have been going to her for hair cuts/color/styling for several years now, and I love her so much I hired for her my wedding to do my hair and make-up, my mom's, my mother in law, and all 8 of my bridesmaids. She did a hair and make-up trial for both me and my mom prior to the wedding and she made it such a fun day - she's SO easy to five feedback to and has such a talent for making your vision come true, she really listens to what you want and what you care about. Come wedding day, she brought 3 of her incredibly talented fellow hair and make-up artists to work with everyone and they did a phenomenal job. Everyone looked beautiful and most importantly - still looked like themselves. Naomi was easy to work with, incredibly fair with pricing, and was a big factor in making my wedding day as amazing as it was. I also have to note - our wedding day came with a POURING rain storm - my hair and make-up didn't BUDGE. I was shocked, she did such a great job! Thank you!!“

“OBSESSED with my new brows! I booked with Jessica for powder brows. I’ve never gotten my brows done before, so I was nervous for how they’d come out, but I’m so glad I trusted Jessica! As you can see in my before photo, I had very sparse brows with uneven shaping, but now my brows are perfect! Jessica really takes her time when mapping out your new brows to enhance your features and fulfill your brow needs. I highly recommend booking w her! :)“

“I've had Helen thread my brows twice now and I have only wonderful things to say about her. She's careful, thoughtful, and great at eyebrows.She sketches out where she'll thread first, gets your okay, and then gets to work. Her threading is fast and accurate and as painless as threading can be. She uses a nice aloe at the end to calm/cool your brows, and you leave looking fresh and well shaped.She is cash only, but there's a Chase ATM right across the street. I paid $25 for brows, plus a $5 tip for $30 total in August of 2022. She's worth it!I just text her to make an appointment and it's easy to find free parking in the area in the mornings, just a short walk away.I will definitely be back!“

“I am so happy to have foundMs. Sonya! We "met" over the phone and I felt a sense of connection and The following Day at my appointment - I felt like I've known Ms. Sonya for all my life. She asked me what type of cut I wanted - and as usual I showed her photos. I also expressed how I wanted the "bump" in the back for volume. She understood exactly because the end result was PERFECT! I left her salon feeling so confident and pretty ‍. I am highly recommending Ms. Sonya and give her 5 stars for her service! I believe this is a great start of a great relationship . I will provide photos soon!“

“I absolutely love Joy Beauty & Eyelash! I'm literally obsessed with my lashes. I've lived in three different cities and Joy Beauty has been my all time favorite place for individual lash extensions. I love natural/classic lash looks and Feven (the owner) nails that look for me every visit. She really listens to what you want and also asks if you're satisfied, which I really appreciate. I love that my friends and family can't even tell that I'm wearing extensions! Also, Feven is so sweet and delightful to be around - I highly recommend her business!Service: Eyelash extensions“

“Totally agree that Elaine at Image Spectrum is the best at getting hair color exactly right. Hard to do well, but Elaine manages it easily. Very clear communicator. She asks every visit what worked/what didn't with my cut and color - and adjusts her approach if needed (rarely-and usually because I have changed what I want). Always on time or close to it. A great neighborhood salon. I happily pay a bridge toll to come to see her.“

“Excruciating but worth it if you need a lot of extractions. They will examine every pore! I have been here twice and after a week, my skin is near flawless. Don't expect a spa-like experience and feel pampered. This is a bare bones operation, so if you want relaxation, research other places.“
