Daisy is exceptional! I hadn’t had my hair done in over a year, and she completely brought it back to life. Her skill and confidence with balayage made me feel so comfortable throughout the appointment. The result looks and feels expensive, while still being soft and natural. I absolutely love it, and I can already tell it’s going to grow out beautifully.
