I recently received a full highlight from Evan, and I'm absolutely obsessed with the results! During the consultation, he provided thoughtful insight while also keeping my vision in mind. I left the salon feeling absolutely refreshed, and I still get compliments on my hair a few weeks later. With the hand-painted color, it's the perfect blend of brightness and my natural brown. I had previously only colored my hair with foils, and I can definitely see the difference!
Found Evan on a whim and the name says it all, he really is THEE colorist. He does the most natural sun-kissed healthy (!) highlights for me, really fair priced and also doesn’t take half a day in the salon. I’ve been getting highlights for 15+ years across Los Angeles and Chicago, and Evan is the best. The products he uses are A+ and the salon is comfortable too.
Evan is an exceptional colorist and overall amazing human being! He is thorough in his consultation and incredibly skilled at not only coloring your hair, but also supporting hair health by achieving the desired result with minimal processing. I took a risk and decided to go a different route than my usual color based on his advice and my hair has never looked better!
