I’ve been going to Elisa for a year now. I had never colored my hair before so having someone as knowledgeable, patient, and overall such a lovely person has been a blessing. She always explains the process and collaborates on what will look good. Her space is well kept and in a great location, I HIGHLY recommend booking here.
