Tamara is an amazing dreadlocks artist. She has been maintaining my locs from the very start of my journey and I couldn’t be happier. From tiny baby locs to mature, long, thick locs she has helped me take beautiful care of them. Regular maintenance has been key and her detox service is amazing. Her artistry…
I’m so thankful to have found such an amazing artist/salon so close to home! I am so happy with the results, and Tamara is just amazing! Thank you 🫶🏼
Reached out with a lock removal/mat removal and she was so accommodating and helpful 10/10 recommend I will definitely be returning she is such a beautiful person!!
Came in for my birthday with hopes of understanding my hair better and continuing my loc journey more openly without hiding behind hair with wraps and cute bandannas due to bunching alittle to much for my liking and was blown away by not only the technique and ease of how my hair was taken care of but made any…
I can not say enough about Tamara! What an incredible experience starting my dreadlock journey. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and professional but equally humble and down to earth. I’m 46 and had my whole head locked for the first time. I couldn’t possibly love them more! Highly recommend!
Tamera was absolutely amazing. She did such an amazing job on my new locs I couldn’t possibly be happier. She listened well and I got exactly what I wanted and was offered advice to help me make a decision on the style and color. It was such an amazing experience and will always cherish this.
I absolutely love this place! Gorgeous studio space. I got 15 dreads installed, this is my third time getting them and I love them every time. I always feel so cute!
Amazing experience she is very knowledgeable in the execution and maintenance of the dreads. Immediately put at ease with the environment of the shop and her easy going attitude. Makes sure you know how to take care of the dreads when you leave as well. Loved every minute and excited she is the one to set me on my…
Best loctician around! Tamara installed and has been maintaining my locs. I look forward to every visit! She has incredible attention to detail, a great selection of adornments, works fast, and she's great to have a conversation with. The studio is a beautiful, relaxing environment that's easy to relax and unwind…
I travelled all the way from Southern Ontario Canada just because I became obsessed with Tamara’s work seen on her socials. She started locs for me in her cute little studio. It was so calming and fun to be there, to meet her and chat while she created my hair dreams! I am in love with my hair and so wish I lived closer to come back again!
Tamara is THE BEST. She does great work and such good company in the process! 😘
Tamara! She is so wonderful. Her kindness above all is equally as splendid as her skill in creating lovely locs and coloring! I had the best time with her! I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a professional color and or to get locs!! I love that we could talk about literally anything and everything ♥️
I’ve wanted locs for roughly 30 years and finally life allowed me to experience them. Tam fulfilled that dream. She is a wonderful soul who made the experience comfortable and fun. I’m so excited to go on this journey. Thank you Tam for making that happen for me!
Walked into the Moonsage Salon with uncertainty of what I wanted to do with my hair and distrust with stylists from past experiences. Tamara could instantly feel my vibes and had me leaving the Moonsage feeling confident and more relaxed than I have felt in ages. Facial and massage were 10 out of 10! My hair came…
Years had gone by since getting any maintenance on my locs, and the difference is unbelievable. Absolutely premium-quality work from start to finish. The attention to detail, the care, and the artistry speak for themselves. Her kindness speaks just as loudly as her talent. There’s a genuine desire to see people…
This is my second time visiting with Tamara. The first time was just to have a few dreadlocks installed to see if I like them. Now that several months have gone by, I went to visit with Tamara and had just about a full head of real hair extension dreadlocks and color. I am absolutely in love with my hair. I was so…
This was my first time getting dread locks. This is a very different experience compared to getting a haircut and styled. Tamara makes this more personalized and sees her clients as individuals rather than just another customer. Her studio creates a cozy and creative space which I enjoyed. Tamara explained…
Absolutely wonderful. Tamara is such a lovely human who I love speaking to and with. She is so skilled and so quick! I book dread cleanups regularly because she’s so swift. And her studio is beautiful.
Tamara is the best stylist. I've gotten Vivid hair colors, dreadlock instalations & maintenance and good vibes!
I honestly couldn’t be happier with my experience of getting my hair done by Tamara!! Not only is she amazing at what she does, but she is super sweet and I enjoyed all the conversation we had while I was in the chair. She was quick, but also very gentle. She listened to what I wanted and gave me my dream hair in…
Tamara was awesome! Professional and smart. Made sure I knew exactly what she was going to do and did a fantastic job. Beautiful studio and an awesome dog too! Looking forward to my next appointment and got a session booked for my husband as well.
I am 100% satisfied with Tamara’s work, so if you are reading this post then this message is for you, She is a professional and a master of her craft! If you have dreadlocks and need maintenance I know that if, you choose her you will be satisfied!!
I’ve pondered my dreadlock journey for quite some time, but I knew that I would have to seek out an experienced loctitian to facilitate the process. As I researched around I ended up stumbling upon Tamara, and The Moonstage Studio, and I just knew that was where I was supposed to go to begin my journey. What I found…
Stepping into The Moonsage Studio felt like such a peaceful little escape ✨ The space has the calmest energy…. grounding, welcoming & instantly comforting. Tamara worked absolute magic tidying up both mine & my boyfriend’s locs! You can truly feel the care and intention she puts into what she does. She was also…

Tamara was amazing! ✨ she was so knowledgeable about hair, extensions and dreadlocks. Her technique for loc maintenance was also so gentle on my scalp, unlike another experience I had. She’s super sweet, down to earth and chill to have convo with! I’d highly recommend booking services with her! 🌻💫
I love seeing Tamara for my Locks. To start… easy to book an appointment on the website. I had some questions before my first set of locks and Tamara responded to my email quickly.

I have been going to Tamara for a few years now for dreadlock maintenance and she does excellent work. Not only do I feel so taken care of while she is doing work on my hair, but she is also just an overall joy to spend time with. Her space is absolutely beautiful and it always feels like a treat to spend time…

I had my jattas (locks) maintained by Tamara at Moon Sage Studio. It didn’t hurt while she was doing it which is something that has never happened before!!! She is an amazing soul so we also had a great conversation. I will definitely be going back and HIGHLY recommend her.
Every experience I’ve had here has been great, It’s always such a relief leaving with well maintained & loved on locs ✨ I’ve been coming for a few years now , and each appointment has been equally as rewarding - both physically & emotionally . If you’re in New England - I can assure you it is definitely worth…

Tamara is great at what she does and the studio is beautiful and comforting. I drive 3+ hours for her services, highly recommend!
Dreadlocks came out exactly how I asked, and Tamara is amazing! The atmosphere is awesome, and she is very friendly.
Tamara always greets me with a smile and a hug! You can tell that she loves what she does and she does it well. People travel to her from all over the country. Lucky for me, I drive a little less than 2 hours. There is never a dull moment with her! We always have meaningful conversations with laughter sprinkled around. I feel lucky to have found her 💕
I drive almost 4 hours (each way) a few times per year to get dreadlock maintenance from Tamara. Her work is incredible, her talent… impeccable, and her company… invigorating. I look forward to the drive out there bc her energy is welcoming and inviting and every time I leave, I feel refreshed both physically and…
I have been coming to Tamara for almost 4 years now, and every time it is an amazing experience- from the moment you walk into Tamara's studio, you feel an instant sense of calm and welcoming.

Tamara kindly came in on her day off just to do my dreadlocks. She is a truly wonderful person with so much experience and wisdom to share. I feel grateful to have begun this journey with her.

Tamara is an absolute gem! When you enter her salon, the space is warm and inviting and has so many fun trinkets and accessories to explore. She custom matched my extensions perfectly to my natural hair to give me a little extra length and blend my partial dreads from top to bottom. I usually get really nervous…
The first time going to Tamra for my dreads I felt so bad because I had never kept up with them and they weren’t ever professionally done before then, but she was able to clean them up with no problem and ever since they have looked amazing! I couldn’t be happier with how they look every time I get them touched up!…
Tamara is amazing at what she does. I regularly see her for maintenance on my locs and I trust her to always take care of me and my hair. She has also installed loc extensions for me for my undercut which I grew out just for that. Her spa services are also more than worth it.
Tamara is amazing!! Nothing short of an artist. I went into the salon for a full hair makeover, color and dread extensions. My full head makeover exceeded my expectations, my dreads are beautiful, colorful and I would not consider going anywhere other than Moonsage Studio!!!
Getting my locs done my Tamara was like being taken care of by an old friend. She made me feel right at home, gave my locs a phenomenal detox and dressed them up beautifully! Not to mention, she’s a great conversationalist and we gabbed away the whole time. So grateful 💛
I have been seeing Tamara for over 5 years now for my dreadlock maintenance. Walking into her studio literally gives you a sense of relief and calmness, the plants, the decor and music all create a relaxing vibe. I recently booked The scalp detox deluxe with mini facial and massage and I cannot stress this enough,…
I have a half head of dreads and half brush able hair. I have been going to Tamara for a little over three years and she is a pleasure to work with.

After a 3½ hour drive, I had my first appointment with Tamara for dread maintenance, and I truly appreciated how professional and thoughtful she was.

I have been going to see Tamara for years. She is kind and talented, and I always enjoy sitting in her chair, chatting with her. She makes me feel beautiful and refreshed after every visit! Thank you, dear. 🫶🏽
