Belleza Salon and Spa

I am a long time client of the salon itself; but, Shane is like a member of our family. He a magician, therapist, entertainer, and beloved friend. All the adult women in my family are clients and we wouldn't have it any other way. The way he encourages his clients through hair insecurities, trends and emergencies is beyond compare.

First time ever getting my hair colored (balayage and Glaze) and I am glad I came to grow. Very warm, clean, and inviting environment. KyMiyah did my hair and she was very thorough, kind, and got my hair exactly how I wanted it to look like. Great first experience.

Absolutely amazing experience! I’ve been going here for years just to see Shane. He is a miracle worker, I tried to do my own hair at home and let’s just say did not go well. He fix it!! Every time I leave the salon Shane has made me feel like a new woman and gives me confidence I’ve never had before. He is the best!!!!

Taylor is always spot on! Always checks to see if I want to do something different- isn’t pushy about selling products, the products are such good quality they sell themselves. Super knowledgeable about color and cut. I highly recommend her!
