Very clean & professional salon with a great owner who really gets good stylists & cares about her customers. Libbey is my choice for a great hair cut & style so that I look like a million bucks! Whether it's a pixie or shaggy cut, she knows her stuff! I have lots of thick hair & cowlicks icky, but she knows how to deal with that & helps instruct me on how to style & care for my hair with great Aveda products available for purchase! I have been coming to this salon for many years & highly recommend all the stylists! Thanks for all you do Libbey! ?

They were able to fit me in for a last-minute appointment. I had a lot of color issues with my hair from coloring it myself. They were able to correct all of the concerning areas. I really wanted to leave with a color as close to my natural as possible. They made this happen. I am about 6 weeks out from my original appointment and do not see the grow out line. Amazing color match for sure. Towards the end, I did notice that my color seemed a little off and they fixed this without issue. I was given a ton of tips to help style my naturally curly hair. The appointment took longer than originally scheduled out for. They stayed late to make sure I left happy with my hair. They explained to me what they were doing each step of the way and why it was needed. Thank you to the ladies that helped me correct my own hair color problems.
