Sarah did an incredible job on my hair! I hadn't gotten a professional haircut in years, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. What really stood out was the consultation — she asked thoughtful questions about my lifestyle and routine, genuinely listened to what I wanted, and was honest about what would actually work for my hair type. She made recommendations I never would have thought of on my own, and they made all the difference. On top of the great cut, she took the time to share tips on how to care for my hair going forward. Grateful for her expertise and would highly recommend her!

Lys made my hair look fantastic, did a great job communicating and asking me about my preferences. I've been very happy with how my hair maintained the style while growing out over several months.
