Wonderful staff and a cozy atmosphere. Everyone here is very knowledgeable and professional.
ISABELLE ⭐️ always does a great job on my hair 💕 this is a beautiful salon that carries Aveda & Keristase’ products - They also do facials and have a med spa. This is a great place. I love it here. All the stylists are talented and friendly, but of course Isabelle is my favorite. If you wanna be blonde she is an expert ⭐️ highly recommend 👍
Matty is the best at what he does! He recently bought his own salon after years and years of hard work and dedication and it shines through on his new location in White Bear Lake, MN. He offers more than any other salon I have ever been to and accommodates his clients beyond what they ask for! Thank you Matty for…
Beautiful, inviting, and great ambiance! Matty is a very skilled stylist! If you want a great cut and color, give Matty a try----I guarantee you'll be thrilled
Very cute place :) great vibes and great people! Friend just started working there and wanted to come and support!! She styled my hair exactly how I wanted and my hair has never felt better !
Matty has been coloring, cutting, and styling my hair for several years. He is a master of his profession. I drive 3 1/2 hours to his salon because I love how he cuts my hair. His salon is a safe, nurturing space to exhale and soak up rejuvenating self-care.

How we grade

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.
Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0.
