Read moreFirst time client - I made a hair cut appointment with Joe and a color appointment with Richard. They both took such great care of me, listened to what I wanted and did an amazing job! They also worked together to make sure everything was on point, which was nice. I have long, fine hair and got a few inches cut off, and a refresh of my layers. Joe took his time and did a beautiful job cutting and styling my hair. Everything blended together nicely and the cut still looks great, months later! Richard is so knowledgeable and was able to tell what I had gotten done before without me telling him. I gave him an idea of the color I wanted, and he did the rest. He got me to a rich medium brown that complements my natural hair color, it looks so nice. Also, the products they used on me were suitable for my hair type and smell amazing. I am so happy with my experience here, I can't wait to go back! The salon is beautiful and comfortable, good vibes. I highly recommend Joe...
