I cannot recommend Keira enough!! I’ve had my hair done by her twice now, first a gorgeous deep wine red and most recently this beautiful copper red with a fresh cut, and BOTH times my hair has somehow turned out even better than my inspo photos!
Keira is incredibly talented, but what really sets her apart is how much she cares about getting your vision right. She takes time to plan her color formulas, really listens to what you want, is honest about what’s achievable, explains everything she’s doing, and happily answers every question along the way.

‼Lissette‼ has been my favorite person to trust with my hair! As a curly haired girl, finding someone who truly understands how to give me volume, shape, and healthy curls has been a journey. I searched for years, and she is the only person who consistently gives me the results I want.
And her blowouts?! They last me 3–5 days and somehow still look amazing. Every single time I leave her chair, I feel like I just stepped onto the set of a telenovela. 😂✨
If you have curly hair and are picky about who touches it, Lissette is your girl. I genuinely wouldn’t trust anyone else! She CHANGED MY LIFE. Been with her since 2023
Bre is amazing! She asked what exactly I was looking for, informed me about how my hair texture may affect what I wanted, and gave me the perfect layered haircut and blowout! She even went through what products, my styling routine, and gave tips on how to achieve what I wanted! ❤
