I recently found this salon after needing immediate professional help to fix a child’s haircut gone wrong. Full disclosure here; I was to blame for said cut. But Elevate was the nearest salon and after a brief call to the receptionist I was encouraged to bring my daughter by for an assessment. How awesome is that?…
