- HPHannah PlathJan 5, 20265.0I had a really great session with my stylist. She was excellently intuitive and took each of my instructions very well. She was so nice, and I'm sorry I didn't get her name. She was a little older than me and a lot more petite. I've never walked out of a salon feeling so understood.
- SLSabrena LaneDec 9, 20255.0My stylist did an amazing job evening my postpartum hair. My hair feels so much better! My stylist also did such a great job trying to encourage my 3 year old to get her 1st hair cut. She was so patient, kind and willing to work with my daughter.. it was unsuccessful but at no fault of the stylist.
