She's helped me grow my hair even longer which was my personal goal. She's warm and friendly, always smiling and working hard. All of her stylists and staff are sweet and I really enjoy my self care time!

I have now sat in Shasta's chair twice -- she is pleasant, knowledgeable, and knows how to color hair (especially if you're in your 40's and still want beautiful blonde hair like me!). She artfully eliminates any brassy tones and will hand paint the blonde where you need it. Through the balayage technique she has added beautiful depth with multiple shades of blonde and I could not be happier. Thank you Shasta!

She's exceptional at what she does and genuinely one of the kindest people you'll meet. My haircut is fairly simple, but I've seen firsthand the work she does with women's hair through several close friends who go to her, and she is incredibly talented -- precise, consistent, and thoughtful in her approach. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and takes real pride in her craft. She's also great at consulting with me on the right products, personalized specifically for my hair and skin. Their brand new location in the Atlas Building in West Des Moines is stunning. The space is beautifully designed -- elegant, refined, and thoughtfully done while still feeling welcoming and comfortable. It's conveniently located, easy to access, and truly elevates the entire experience. The team is always professional and welcoming, and the level of service is consistently top tier. I also appreciate that they've expanded their services beyond what was offered at the West Glen location -- it really feels like a full-service destination now. Another big plus is their use of Aveda products. They're excellent for sensitive skin, made with naturally derived ingredients, and the brand is known for environmentally responsible practices and more sustainable packaging. I personally purchase both Aveda hair and skincare products from Serenity, and they always have a great selection in stock. Serenity continues to set a high standard for quality, service, and overall experience. Highly recommend.

Update: June 12 I have gone many times and today I was very disappointed in their professionalism. During my haircut every minute or two she would pause to answer the phone. I understand that it is important to answer to other customers but shouldn't someone else take care of the phone as well? I was not asked if I wanted my sideburns to be trimmed which is someone that seems to always be offered but maybe things have changed. The gel applied to my hair was very rushed as well. I have gone many times and really wonder if this is the same way the people I have recommended have been treated because I know I won't be recommending any more.
