    I have brown hair with about 40% grey. She did a highlight that blended very well with my grey and brown hair. I love it. It looks very natural, the look that I was going for, I am so pleased with the result and the outstanding service! I highly recommend Penelope's salon!!!!

    Got my haircut and color. Super happy. I’m a picky person especially when it comes to the hair question. And here I’m fully satisfied with the result. 😍 Color is natural, shape is beautiful. I like the Aveda products as well, that actually was one of the reason coming to Penelope’s vanity salon and I’m glad i did it. Thank you Selam for a great service and nice job you did. 🙏🏻coming back for sure…
