It is really hard to find someone who can perfect your hair TWICE. Steph has done it!! Kept my natural color intact when I wanted to add a subtle pop, and kept my length on my cut and gave me movement, and texture. She is down to earth, kind, and SO TALENTED!!! So good I had to take a photo getting gas on my way home. Book👏with👏Steph👏

I recently tried Gracie as a hairdresser. She is fantastic! She cut my short hair and she did an amazing job. She was so careful and always communicated before any big snips and she made sure I was okay at all times. The ultimate test is whether I can do my hair on my own at home and it's perfect. I can style it easily on my own! Gracie is awesome!
