Yesenia is an amazing stylist. After going through several stylists, she’s the one who truly listened to me and gave me the best cut for my hair and for my face. Additionally, she does wonders with colors and highlights. And finally, she’s just one of the nicest humans you will ever meet and she truly cares about her clients.

Zena is absolutely wonderful. She really listens to what I want and also knows what will work with my hair and my lifestyle. I have sent my whole family - each with different hair styles and needs to her - and we are all very happy with her work. She is also a delightful person to be with.
