Testimonials

On 11/3/2025 Samantha Stickels had this to say:
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.

On 10/26/2024 Traci Lendt had this to say:
Absolute best experience I’ve ever had at a hair salon! I had dry, damaged, color treated hair that was just growing back from hair loss and I was at my wit’s end. Libby made me feel immediately comfortable and safe and Brooklyn did an amazing job with my color! They saved my hair and I am so happy and grateful. I get so many compliments now and I’m blown away by how soft it still is. Thank you Thank you!
