"I have been coming here for a while and it has never dawned on me to leave a review but my girl Allison does not disappoint. Over the years I have lost trust in professional stylists with my curly hair, that is until I found Allison. I am very particular with the vision I go in with but she takes instruction very well, listens to what the client wants and executes everytime! Now she is the ONLY person I trust with my hair for dye, cut, glaze, curly style, pretty much anything she does I know she's got it down! ~ Nilsa"
