I’ve gone to Oksana several times for a Brazilian blow out. I always get a great and lasting result. She is courteous and professional but also kind and fun to chat with. The salon is very clean and everyone is really professional and always smile and are helpful. I would rate Oksana and Shear Bliss higher if I could. I highly recommend.
