Honestly a day doesn't pass that I don't get a compliment on I'm pink hair. If you are looking for extension and or color, give Jessica a call you won't be disappointed!

She listened to everything I wanted and did such a wonderful job, I really can't say enough about how talented she is!

First visit with Laurie and I'm already planning my next one!…read more I came in for a cut and highlights, and she really listened--especially when I said I wanted dimension without going too light since it's not quite spring yet. She absolutely nailed the color: fresh, natural, and perfectly balanced. The cut? So good. Clean, flattering, and easy to style, with tons of attention to detail. Laurie has this fun, artistic energy that makes the whole appointment feel relaxed and creative, but you can tell she's also incredibly precise and thoughtful about her work. If you're looking for a stylist who listens, has a great eye for color, and brings good vibes along with serious skill, Laurie is your person. Do yourself (and your hair) a favor and book with her.

We booked Kelly and her team for me and my bridesmaids for our wedding in July, for both hair and…read moremakeup. Since I live in Philadelphia we weren't able to do a hair/makeup trial, but honestly it wasn't needed because they really know what they are doing. Kelly and her assistant Kate nailed the natural glam look perfectly. I am a huge crier and also have heavy hair, but even after hours of dancing everything stayed in place! Kelly was really easy to communicate with, and her and Kate arrived early to our getting ready room to get set up, which I really appreciated. They both also were so nice and warm, which helped with the pre-wedding nerves. Kelly provided a hair/makeup timeline ahead of time which helped to keep things running and on track! They even helped to touch up my mom's makeup, which I really appreciated. Thank you for making me and my bridesmaids feel so beautiful!

I'm not super experienced with makeup and had never had it done professionally before, but she immediately understood the natural glowy look I was going for from the inspo pictures I showed her and executed it so perfectly! I was particularly impressed that she was able to get all of my very thick hair up into an updo that lasted an entire night of dancing without any hairs out of place. I also had a tan line I was worried about, and she was able to fix it with body makeup! She is super thoughtful in considering your feedback after your trial and is also a super sweet person to get to chat with while getting ready the morning of your wedding. Thank you so much, Kelly!

Simply put, Sarah is amazing!!!…read more When I moved to Santa Cruz I had a hard time parting with my previous stylist on the other side of the hill since I had so many bad experiences finding new stylists in the past. My girlfriend has been going to Sarah for years and suggested I go see her. I talked to Sarah and she was great! She was super responsive and very willing to meet my scheduling needs, which is a huge plus for me. Sarah really took the time to understand my hairstyle and my preferences. She even went above and beyond to ask what products I was using and explained the product she was going to use to gel my hair. I was so impressed, I have changed my hair product to something Sarah recommended because it's so much better than what I've managed to find out in the wild. Sarah is the best and if you are not going to her now, you owe it to yourself to go see her.
