Yigsy has been doing my hair for 2 decades now. She was the only person I trusted to do my updos for proms and events as a teenager. Now as an adult, she's the only one I trust to cut, and blow dry my hair. She’s been doing my mom’s highlights for equally as long. We both love her because she's extremely professional and her technique is impeccable. Please make sure you book your appointments far in advance as she is always booked!

Yigsy has been my hairstylist specializing in highlights for the last 10 years and has been cutting my daughter’s hair since she was 1! She is an expertise and extremely professional, kind, and loves to chat with her clients! Her hair studio has a full kitchen where she offers coffee and snacks- such a lovely touch! Yigsy, keep doing what you do best. Cheers to another 10+ years!

Yigsy is the best! My mom and I have been getting our hair done with her for over 20 years! I moved out of state 13 years ago and still travel to NJ to get my hair done! Excellent service, professionalism and diligence in her work. She takes the time to know exactly what one needs and wants and delivers everytime! Make your appointments with time as she books up quickly! You will NOT be disappointed!
