Amazing energy and an amazing job! It was my first visit there and I felt I was visiting a kindred soul. But more importantly she absolutely nailed the colors I was looking for. Very impressed.

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! 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 ♥️

Tamara is amazing!!! Best hair color and salon experience I’ve ever had. I am a natural dirty blonde, but always like to have it lifted to a light summer blonde. She nailed it. Her 20+ years of experience definitely shows! I highly recommend Tamara and will absolutely be returning for more hair care and a maybe a facial too!

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…

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…

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 💛
