As a former hairstylist, I’m very picky about who touches my hair. Chey is the absolute best! She provides a truly full service salon experience and her attention to detail is unmatched!

I’ve had my hair done by both Chey and Dee and both are amazing!! You cannot go wrong with either of them as your stylist. They listen and try to understand what you’re going for. I would recommend these girls and this salon to anyone. And the atmosphere is a lot of fun!
