Tesla is amazing! She kept my blonde amazing for years in the past and now transitioning back to my natural hair color, I love it even more! She took her time blending the color on my roots while protecting the shade of blonde on the ends I wanted to keep. When she cut it, she took off only what was damaged I never…

Highly recommend Cassidy!!! she is super sweet and skilled in her hair magic. She gave me the Hair of my dreams!! I got a much needed refresh to my layers. Not only that my hair is so soft even after dying it. I’ve been getting compliments nonstop. The salon itself is very clean and well kept and aesthetic.

Overpriced, should’ve done my own hair at home with the lack of talent I received during my service. I only wanted a Carmel brown hair color, no reason to of over processed my hair to be blonde in certain parts and then have other fellow hairstylists come check my hair in the bowl to help fix your mistake in the back. Huge waste of $200 and lucky you even got a $20 tip. Would never recommend this place and definitely won’t ever trust a Tenaj graduate again, being a previous student at Tenaj myself- no well educated stylist comes from there lol

Tesla is amazing! She kept my blonde amazing for years in the past and now transitioning back to my natural hair color, I love it even more! She took her time blending the color on my roots while protecting the shade of blonde on the ends I wanted to keep. When she cut it, she took off only what was damaged I never lost any length. She is very busy because she's mastered her craft so be patient. She has other stylists in her salon that she trusts so keep that in mind if she can't get you in as quickly as you want. She's well worth the wait and I always love my hair more after!
