I usually cut, razor, thin out my curly hair- because my curls hide the imperfections. But, my sister bought me a $150 gift certificate a few years prior.

I moved to oakland two years ago and finally took the plunge to find a hair stylist here instead of driving 2 hours one way to my former stylist.

I have been going to Future salon for many years and I'm always pleased with the kind and professional staff. I love my hair stylist, Kaitrin, as she never fails to cut and highlight my short hair perfectly! She is also a wonderful person who has the sweetest smile on the planet!
