I had such a great experience with Agnieszka! She was super sweet and really listened to what I was wanting to do with my hair. I really appreciated the input and advice she gave me to help me get my hair where I want it to be. We also talked about extensions, and I’m looking forward to getting those done with her soon! Definitely recommend her!

Being new to the area, I wanted to find a salon with nice reviews and close to our house. Met Serena at IBL and found a great fit on my first try! I needed a color and cut, with the added challenge of working with my thinning hair. Serena did a great job!!! The salon is clean, comfortable, and has a relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommend!!
