She is super welcoming and a joy to be around which enhanced an already enjoyable experience. Her prices are also very reasonable. The end result was absolutely fabulous!

Dax and Lindsay are keratin experts! They know what they're doing, they use the best products, and…read morethey're such a pleasure to spend time with! Highly recommended! I've been getting keratin treatment for over a decade and I have gone to a bunch of different stylists, and tried the full range of products and brands. Many stylists charge a lot and don't know what they're doing. Or they use products that simple don't work. I am so happy that I found Dax and Lindsay!! They are awesome!!

I've gotten keratin straightening elsewhere and was disappointed. Never again! They are honest with their consults on what is possible for each individual hair (literally since I have balayage on the ends and colored grey and virgin hair on top and in the middle). And they are a vibe and kind. I would recommend them to anyone who wants straighter, neater hair that is easy to manage with some blowdrying. Bonus they got me in for a haircut with Michelle at the same salon with no wait and I love it!

I cannot believe how affordable it is!!! I used to get them done at a salon, but they 100% overcharge for the exact same service and you HAVE TO BUY HAIR in addition to the cost of the installation... 3packs of hair for a full head costs $800+ at other salons!!!!!   The extensions are comfortable to wear, I can barely notice them.   Next time I think I will go longer or get a balage look! It's totally customizable great for festivals (unicorn hair)... The extensions look great and feel like high quality hair. I'm so much more confident and love my new look. I highly recommend anyone wanting a new look that's not permanent. AMAZING A+++++

The second time I…read morewent to get them re-installed the tape she used was different than the first time, when I washed my hair the extensions started to fall off my hair. I texted her and went in no problem. The extensions kept falling and I contacted her again the owner responded 3 days later and when I asked her about how much it will be this time and what day I was able to go, she never responded back. I guess I will go to another place to get them done now since she doesn't need my business. I like her personality but I guess it got to much to handle.

When I TELL YOU I GOT MY WHOLE WORLD; new job, new man, and all kinds of great connections and compliments after being styled by her. I highly suggest and wouldn't change her service and price point are decent. She is flexible in scheduling just don't come with attitude, no hair, and sick or drama. She is a spiritual, great guide, and just all around great person and I truly appreciate some of the hair tips and tricks she showed me while scolding me for just doing dumb things to cause breakage in my hair (I tried to bleach my hair and suffered the consequence or not caring for it the way it needed to be cared for my hair type)

I first came in with colors all over the place from a bad previous job that she patiently color corrected, keeping my hair healthy and getting me back to my natural color. Since then she's taken me to full icy blonde and back to a gorgeous, lived-in, rooty blonde that is *chef's kiss* perfection. She's patient, always puts hair health first, and will walk you through her plans and be upfront about what's possible in a session. Truly the best there is.

I've now tried a couple of different extension types with Lilly from Keratin bonds to hand tied wefts. I have to say I absolutely loved all of them! They made my hair so much fuller and Lilly was able to match my color perfectly each time. She did such a great job, the Keratin bonds lasted a full 6 months and needed minimal touch ups. On top of my beautiful extensions, she consulted me on the types of shampoos, conditioners, and other hair care products I should use to take care of them properly and to make my hair last as long as possible. Her haircuts are also amazing! She carefully trims my split ends everytime I see her and she has my hair growing back a lot longer and healthier because of it. I highly recommend Lilly! Shes so cute and fun to talk to while you're getting your hair done too!

My first experience with hair extensions was problematic for several reason but mostly related to how thin and fine my hair is. I decided to do research and save money for a recognized professional to fix my hair. That's how I found Regina! Her prices were reasonable but working in social services I still had to save. This was the best decision and it paid off. The hair matches my hair perfectly (texture and color), it's extremely well done you couldn't tell close up and I am also able to put it up without showing. She does the invisible beaded hand tied weft technique and it's seamless. Her experience really shows with how quickly and efficiently she moves her hands. Lastly, she was so kind and personable. I'm always self-conscious in salons because of my bad hair - she made it a very warm and comfortable experience. I will post more photos later. Thank you again, Regina!

Intro My name is…read moreDominique and I am a salon owner in San Carlos CA. I specialize in the industries most cutting-edge extensions and weaving techniques. I was in the marker to expand my knowledge and portfolio in an extension technique that is safe on the hair as well as long lasting for my clients without the tension of braids, damage from glue, or restrictions of wigs. During my search I found Deb. Deb is the owner and educator or the Milvali extension technique and courses. The Class When I inquired about the class I was a little taken back when I heard the price. However, in the past, I have taken classes for less and was not satisfied with the material. Deb made the class very interesting and informative. The class was small and intimate which I can appreciate because larger classes make the instructors too busy to help with your specific questions. She also had two beautiful assistants with her Lauren and Emmy. The class was two days, theory, then hands on. Her handbook was by far my favorite. I didn't do my first install until about a month after the class and I had forgotten some of the things we covered. However, her guide was professional, sturdy, organized and thorough. So thorough that all I had to do was bring it out and read it for me to remember what I had forgotten. Hands On I really enjoyed the hands on portion of the class as it was working on a real model. There was someone there every second of the way coaching you and helping you answer any questions you may have. Wrap Up The reason I want to write this review is to help inform someone who may want to expand their business with a cutting edge technique that is safe for everyone's hair. The only draw back of the extensions is the price but in actuality, price is only the main focus of people who cannot afford certain things. People love my Milvali Extension Technique and they don't mind paying for it. All in all this call was a wonderful decision to take. I would do it again in a heartbeat!
