Keri is great! At the last minute my hair appointment was cancelled for a wedding (I was a bridesmaid) At midnight I was able to schedule an appointment for that very morning with Keri. She was so kind and got me in right away. She did exactly what I asked for and hid the flaws I was most self conscious about. My hair looked nice, was priced fair, and lasted the entire day! I will be going back specifically because of Keri. THANK YOU!

I had the pleasure of getting a classic lash set done by Kayli. They are beautiful and just what I wanted. Kayli goes out of her way to make sure you are comfortable and satisfied. She is kind, professional and gentle. She listened to my preferences for lash extensions and executed the style I wanted perfectly. She actually catered the lash placement to the shape of my eyes! I feel amazing and can just wake up and go! Thanks so much Kayli, you’re amazing. Will definitely be back for this service again ❤️

I got waxed today at the salon by the lovely Kayli. She made me feel very welcome to the salon and explained what she was doing step by step as I’ve never had my arms waxed before. My skin feels super smooth. She even explained aftercare, potential things to look out for and how to treat it if such things occur (which they did not!). She is incredibly knowledgeable about her services. Overall awesome experience, I will be coming back for more waxing service soon!

Layla did my haircut yesterday, 7/7/25. She was so super sweet and really took her time with the entire process. She was thorough, informative, and very personable. The salon was clean and well stocked, too. I highly recommend stopping here and visiting Layla! Edited to add: I have a LOT of hair. I inserted a photo of how wonderfully she handled it all.

I absolutely ADORED my experience today. My color was done by Brandy (absolutely phenomenal), and she was so sweet and knowledgeable. I also decided to get my hair cut, which the owner Jess did. She went above and beyond and made sure to keep as much as my length (i got layers) as she could like I asked for. Prices are fair, the staff are all super friendly and professional. I 100% recommend this salon and I can’t wait for my touch up in 8 weeks. ☺️
