I followed Margaux here from her old salon. Same gorgeous blonde, but now it’s just us and a playlist I pick.
Kelsey M.Gold-standard balayage
Tasia’s extensions are invisible. My own sister didn’t notice for a month.
Briana T.Hand-tied extensions
Dev gave me a wolf cut that actually looks good on a 41-year-old mom. Respect.
Jen L.Shag & wolf cut
Booked Ruben at 8pm on a Tuesday. Suites with late hours are a game changer.
Marco D.Clipper & scissor cut
Private room, no hairdryer roar from twelve stations. I actually relaxed.
