Rachel is the most talented person that has ever done my hair- a true ARTIST! She goes above and beyond and can make your dream hair a reality. She's super thorough and takes her time with not only when doing your hair, but making sure she knows exactly what you want. She's also honest, which is HUGE. She'll be upfront when telling you what needs to be done to get your goal hair, so I let her take the reins and I've never been disappointed. She's extremely knowledgeable and knows what process will work best for you and your hair to achieve exactly what you want. Every time she has done my hair I get the most compliments I have ever gotten and I just feel good! She notices the little things and will communicate with you during the process too. For example, while doing my hair she asked me "hey do you wear your hair up a lot?" (And of course I said yes because I rock Ariana Grande pony tails and buns like it's my job) and then asked me if she wanted some highlights on the underside of my hair so they'll show when I wear it up. And of course I said yes- it was a great idea! Now my highlights show when I rock a high pony and ties together the whole natural blonde look. The products she uses are top of the line and my hair always looks and feels healthier after visiting her chair. And on an unrelated note, she gives the BEST HEAD MASSAGES when washing your hair. She exceeds expectations when it comes to everything. read more

Rachel was outstanding. I hadn't had my hair colored or anything for two full years so I was so nervous about finding someone to treat it because it's long and thick and I blonde it, which is often risky. I just found her online after searching for days and followed my instincts after seeing her work on online pictures. NO REGRETS!!!! I got married a couple of days later after getting my hair done so it was really important to me that it was perfect and IT WAS. So so so happy with her magic! I moved to alaska since getting it done in October but I might be flying back just so Rachel can do my hair again! Also I have to mention how FAST she works, I was really impressed. read more

I can't recommend Rachel enough, she is a true artist and a professional one at that. I came into the salon and she talked me off a ledge when I mentioned chopping off my locks. After a little consultation she guided me toward a nice trim and a beautiful blonde with dimension instead. I love it so much!

Ok I've never been one to leave a bad review, even when I've been disappointed in a service cause you're not going to be satisfied 100% of the time. BUT, my experience at this salon was so terrible I just needed to share it for the sake of warning future clients. Rachel was pretty cold right off the bat, I sat down and she immediately took out her phone and began taking "before" pics of my hair without asking for permission. That's fine, I wasn't really bothered by that initially cause I would've consented if she'd asked. The salon itself was really dirty, covered in clients' hair and clumps of dried bleach, even on the chairs. Once she started actually brushing and prepping my hair for the bleach, I started to get a little irritated because I have never had someone handle my hair and my scalp so aggressively. I have a hard scalp and have never had this issue before, but I was literally on the verge of tears for the full hour it took her to prep my hair even though I asked her multiple times if she could be more gentle (she didn't). But the untangling process?? Insane. She literally ripped hair from my scalp and broke so many strands in half. I've had my hair bleached before, and NEVER has it been so damaged and broken, which I mainly contribute to how she actually handled my hair and had no regard for my hair health (which I've worked really hard to maintain and I KNOW that I did not have this much breakage before our session). My scalp was literally sore for days. After all of this, the final color was pretty but definitely not what I had asked for, and when I tried to voice this to her, she basically told me that she thought it looked pretty and "we can fix it next time." Like what? I'd like to have the results that I payed $400 for. I left pretty frustrated, but wanted to give myself some time to cool off and get used to my new hair. After a week, I finally reached out to her to voice my frustrations and she left me on read. Never responded to me or acknowledged what I had to say. So unprofessional all around. A few other details to add: - she got toner all down the back of my new sweater - all of her supplies were SO dirty and unhygienic, she literally took a towel to wipe bleach from the floor, and then used the same towel to wipe her bleach brush off in between applying the bleach to my hair read more

Absolutely loved getting my hair cut by Rachel. Her space was adorable and extremely clean. She did a great job and listened to exactly what I wanted done! read more

I found Rachel on IG after only living in AZ for a couple months. I was intensely IN LOVE with her work! Unlike other places, Rachel made me feel very comfortable. Rachel was open to consultation before booking my appointment ( I wanted her to highlight my natural hair & not remove my extensions). Rachel was very transparent with her pricing and policies. She is flexible and I'm able to text her for appointment availability! She is very responsive if I have questions via text. Run, don't walk to see Rachel! read more

Rachel has been cutting my hard to cut hair for 10 years! I have course straight thick hair and I appreciate that I don't have to tell my hairstylist to texture more and take more bulk out. She knows what to do and she is fast. Thanks for always making me look great Rachel! read more
