Danielle was fantastic and truly listened to what I wanted with my hair. It can be scary going to a new salon/stylist and Danielle completely understood that. My hair turned out beautiful and I’m so happy with it!

Salon Leau and Le Spa

I have been going to LoAnn for over 20 years. I don’t ever tell her what to do with my hair I know she will make it look fabulous. My 2 daughters love to go to her as a treat once a year and she is so fun with them also. Lo Ann will tell you what will look good and what won’t if you have an idea. We are lucky to have her in the area!

Shear Bliss NYC Salon

I finally found the perfect hairstylist! Mia at Shear Bliss did an amazing job on my balayage and keratin treatment. She's super sweet, professional, and I'm completely in love with my hair. The salon itself is great too, welcoming and well run. Mia's my go-to now. Highly recommend booking with her!
