Found Stella on Google trying to find someone who would specialize in curly hair, which is so hard to find. This is the best layered haircut I've ever had. We went extra short since I had so much chemical damage. She did great at getting rid of most of it. I JUST KNOW it'll grow out beautifully. I know I'll come back to her all the way from Orange County!! Plus she is so nice, gentle and so fast

Very nice lady but I came in for keratin treatment and told me I should get Brazilian. My hair is already thin and I told her to watch the heat. A couple days after the treatment my hair is fried and all broke off. I am so sad and would never go back here. I hope I get refunded.

I've never had a keratin treatment or Brazilian blowout before today, and boy, have I been missing out! Stella brought my blonde highlights back to life! Highly recommend a visit to Stella Style.

Stella is very kind and attentive and does a great job with my thick wavy hair it looks so smooth and is much more manageable after my appointments

Stella is the only place you should be going to in all of San Diego for your hair treatment needs!! Stella is such a sweet woman who really puts in care, detail, and passion into what she does. She has the cutest salon set up I've truly ever experienced. It's outdoors on her patio and it's the full set up. I've never felt zen and peaceful during a Brazilian blowout until i visited Stella. It's the only way i want to get my hair done now! It's such an amazing space and set up. As for my Brazilian blowout- she did an AMAZING job. She used the Brazilian Blowout Free which is free of formaldehyde which means it's less damaging for the same results. I've been getting Brazilian blowouts for 6 years now and this is the first time i wasn't suffocating from the chemicals! I cannot say enough positive things about Stella and her salon. 10/10 recommend!

Brazilian blowout balayage hair cut and color correction.

Color correction from red brown to natural blonde balayage and light brown beige color with hair cut and Brazilian blowout. I am please with the outcome of the balayage she did into my hair. Not all stylist can do such a thing like this. I was so happy with it. A+++ Excellent

Highlights, keratin, treatment, haircut and color

I had such a great experience with Stella! She did an amazing job with my highlights, color, and Brazilian blowout. My hair looks and feels healthier, shinier, and so much more manageable. She really listened to what I wanted, made sure the color was exactly right for my skin tone, and explained each step so I felt comfortable the whole time. The blowout left my hair silky smooth without feeling heavy, and the highlights blended beautifully and look so natural. On top of her talent, Stella is warm, professional, and makes the whole experience enjoyable. I walked out feeling like a million bucks. Highly recommend her if you want gorgeous results and a stylist who truly cares about her clients!

Stella truly cares and is a honest professional. I took my daughter for a cut/style she wanted that was on a website. However, my daughter has different hair type from the model in the picture. Stella was honest and explained the style would look different because of her hair texture. She offered options and fixed the bad haircut my daughter had received at another salon. Her salon is located in the back of her home, it is very serene and relaxing. We will definitely be back! :)

I was interested in keratin treatment but it doesn't actually straighten the hair it will make it less frizzy for my hair texture so Got the Japanese/rebounding permanent straightening done and it's amazing my hair is very straight exactly what I was looking for!!! Thank you soooo much I love it !!!!

I have been coming to StellaStyle for 15 years, she is absolutely amazing. Once I found her I never looked elsewhere. She's done my red color for several years now, but has also done dark with blonde highlights and low lights with the red. She also does great haircuts, I love my layers and the shaping around my face. She does my eyebrows and facial waxing while my color sets! She's done various deep conditioning/protein treatments and extensions on my hair over the years as well. She's also done formal styles for me in the past for events. She even did my hair and ny bridesmaids hair for my wedding! I recommend her highly.

Stella is absolutely amazing. This is my second time coming to her, the first time she did Japanese hair straightening for me a few years ago. This time I wanted something different for a mini mommy makeover and she did a natural red balayage with a brazillian keratin treatment. She is great because she explains each of the steps and even goes over a haircut assessment before beginning to ensure that the client and stylist are on the same page. She is so sweet and really fun to talk with. She pays A LOT of attention to detail and is a master at her craft. I will definitely be coming back for all of my hair needs!!

I had an amazing experience with getting my Brazilian. She does the Brazilian blowout outdoors. The new formula is free from Harsh chemicals. I felt a huge difference in my hair texture. It's so smooth and not frizzy! I would recommend this service to anyone. I have long thick hair. This experience was amazing!

Stella is good but I do think her pricing is a little much for keratin. When I looked up keratin treatments hers was the first that came up because it's sponsored. I looked at the reviews and I was surprised to see 5's across the board, a nearly perfect yelp score. At first I didn't question it. Then after the service was finished and she had me write a review in front of her I realized that she has all of her customers write reviews to get $10 off. Due to my credibility on here, I felt I must update my review now that I'm sitting by myself. It was an okay treatment, I think she's super nice, but the pricing was a bit much. Other than that, she was good. I would say a 4.0/5 on a more complex scale. read more

I just moved to the area and had asked around for recommendations for a private hair salon, but alas none came through. I read a reviewer for Stella's Style mentioning the privacy of her at-home space and studio and decided to give it a shot. She was quick to respond and help me out with getting a booking for the next day. Let me tell you, I have basically had nonstop traumatic experiences with hair stylers since childhood and this was THE first wonderful experience. First, the salon is setup in her beautiful outdoor area with a covered space. You're literally getting a salon experience in the gorgeousness of San Diego's breeze. It's incredibly clean and professional, and Stella herself is a natural. This was also the first time I didn't even have to show the stylist pictures for her to understand what I was looking for. I got the Keratin treatment with a layered cut and it looks spectacular! I'm already looking forward to my next appointment in a few months. To all the folks who want quality salon treatment and a comfortable environment (and the added bonus of privacy), this is the place to go. It literally feels like a little escape into a relaxing garden with hair care. read more

Originally wanted the Japanese straightening but due to parts of my hair being bleached, I was told it wasn't the safest route for my hair and even though she'd love to do it she wouldn't feel safe at the risk of ruining my hair. This honesty made me trust her more. We then went and did a brazilian blowout because it'd be healthier for my hair and I love the results we also colored my hair to make it all even since the bleach was from what I did myself previously and we did a trim as well to keep the length. Everything was communicated thoroughly and she was so kind and welcoming. 10/10 recommend. read more

I'm thankful I found Stella. I moved to a different state and it has been challenging to find a stylist. I have been to Stella 2 times. Both times I did a balayage, color, root shadow/base color, highlighting and cut. She does it out of her home and as a customer we can reap the savings. She gives quality work for an affordable price. She has been doing this for several decades. Stella was a teacher Paul Mitchell school. Stella is great at telling you step-by-step what she is doing and how to maintain your hair. I love curling my hair but have a difficult time using a wand. She gave great tips on how to use it and maintain my curls. She sells hair products to help maintain your color and hair. I bought the Signature Blonde Violet Color Proof shampoo and conditioner the first time I went to her. She buys the products in bulk and offers it cheaper than other places. You can come back for a refill for lesser price. I will continue to patronize with her. She is super sweet and does beautiful work! read more

I'm more timid and shy so if she couldn't do exactly what I asked for, I wish she would have recommended what she COULD do so I didn't waste my time coming to their salon. This overall confused me as their marketing on social media is great and regardless I WAS ALREADY THERE! You wasted a whole appointment on someone who was in your chair! Update: I went across the street to raven and sage and they got me in with a walk in appointment and did exactly what I wanted. HIGHLY recommend Raven and sage for anyone who is more shy and doesn't want to waste their time. I'm so glad Sandra admitted she couldn't do an all over color "because no one in San Diego does dark rich colors" so that I could find a great stylist at raven and Sage. And now looking on yelp, there's multiple bad reviews naming Sandra specifically. Glad I didn't waste my time and weird the salon still backs her when multiple people have complained specifically about Sandra.

Salvage Salon

I really hesitated to write this review because I initially thought David Langit was a nice person,…read morebut ultimately I was really disappointed in my entire experience. On April 22, I went in and showed David mushroom blonde hair as my goal because I was taking maternity photos soon and wanted something a little more subdued. He assured me that it was possible. However right towards the end, he told me, with color in hand already, that he wasn't going to tone the color I wanted because it would show grays more easily. I felt like I didn't really have an option but decided to trust him. When my hair finished, the front two pieces looked good, but when I washed my hair two days later, I just felt like the rest was nothing like what I had wanted. It was overly yellow and not ashy at all. Still, I didn't want to cause problems, so I went ahead and did my photos the following weekend (May 2 -- 10 days since the appointment). When I got my final photos back from the photographer this week, I was horrified. I have been doing balayage on my hair for years & a huge section of orange hair just 10 days after my dye appointment is NOT normal. There was a clear band of orange hair that had not lifted enough. With a lot of hesitation, I reached out to David to ask if he could fix it, but he said I had to have contacted him within two weeks and now he would have to charge me again. I tipped 20% on a $500 bill and spent $600+ just to have orange hair. My photos clearly showed that just 10 days after my appointment, my hair was already orange. The only reason I waited until now was because I didn't want to bother him... It shocked me that he felt this was a fair resolution. I felt like if he could have at least lifted the sections he missed without charge then I could at least get by with evenly colored hair even if it wasn't ashy. After reaching out to other stylists for help, one told me that whoever did my hair shouldn't be charging me for a fix because "they didn't finish their job" and another told me that it was clear that he had missed a chunk. To me this shows that this was an actual issue that is clearly visible to other stylists, and David was choosing to ignore it. Overall I was saddened by this experience more than anything else. I was under the impression that he was a professional who cared about the quality of his work, but it's now clear that was not the case. I'm disappointed that I trusted him with my hair because not only does it look terrible, but it ruined my photos as well.

Then she proceeded to peel off the old gel and tore the corner of my nail OFF. She then proceeded to say I had thin nails! I've been getting gel pedicures for a while now and NEVER has anyone tore a piece of my nail OFF! As a technician, even if my nail was thin she could of used a machine to remove the gel instead of tearing it off the way she did. I was so upset! She tried to tell me she would add a piece, which I declined so I just told her to cut what she could without leaving my nail too short. I will never return here. Maybe some folks like this method of removal but I did not and will not be returning for a pedicure. I will add the chairs were comfortable and I also got a gel manicure which he added so many layers too!

Absolutely, INCREDIBLE Experience. I don't think I have EVER Left a Hair Salon with this Much Happiness before I stepped into Stella Style. With her adorable patio set-up, warm personality that really makes you feel at home, and Incredible Expertise that exudes from every little detailed thing she does: This Hair Experience is World-Class!!! I hadn't been to a salon in YEARS and had just been trimming my ends myself because... well, you know how it goes! Stylists who don't listen to your wants, take more off than you're comfortable with.. agree to perform services they know they're not Capable of to perfection.. not here! I'd just about given up on Ever having the hair you see in the magazines... smooth, healthy, shiny, Effortless.... my coarse, middle-eastern, tangled, almost-to-the-waist Curled-Waves had been Straightened almost Everyday for the past 10 years and were just about frayed to the root... BUT STELLA TO THE RESCUE!! I told her exactly what I've dreamed of.. and Put my Full trust into allowing her to cut off as many inches as she'd need to bring my Vision to Life. After 10 or so inches cut off.. a Japanese Straightening Treatment, Keratin Treatment, & Effortless Layers put in after.. my years of having Dull, Dry, Tangled, HOPELESS Hair after Every Moment a Drop of Moisture entered the atmosphere... Has now resulted in My Dreams Come True! Literally can feel my hair follicles thanking me..! She guided me through Every Step of this process that was ever-so-new to me, took her time/patience, followed every Ask I had of her.. and also recommended some extras to keep this Style going as long as possible with some insider tips & tricks ! I also purchased some sulfate-free shampoo/conditioner specifically for my new Japanese Straightened hair from her which she has on hand in case you don't have any at home or time to grab some. And so I left my previous life with unmanageable, life-sucking hair... and entered my New life with a Smooth, Classy, Bob... ...and ENDLESS COMPLIMENTS! Go to Stella Style if you want All your Hair dreams to Come True! Relax, sit-back, put your trust in her hands, and get ready to feel Gorgeous! Highly Highly Recommend, will be my new go-to with Any Hair Woes in the future. Thank you Stella! read more

I recently had the incredible opportunity to visit Stella Style Salon, an exceptional outdoor salon, for a Brazilian blowout, haircut, and color, and the experience was absolutely extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, the outdoor setting enveloped me in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The salon, beautifully integrated into its natural surroundings, offers a luxurious and relaxing environment. It's a place where the serene ambiance and fresh air enhance the pampering experience, making every visit memorable. The highlight of my visit was the unparalleled service provided by Stella, the stylist. Stella is not just a professional; she is a true artist with an exceptional eye for detail and a deep understanding of hair care. She took the time to listen to my hair concerns and desires, offering expert advice tailored to my needs. Stella used top-notch products for my Brazilian blowout, haircut, and color, transforming my hair from frizzy and unmanageable to sleek, soft, and vibrant. The color she chose complimented my skin tone perfectly, and the cut refreshed my look completely, making my hair not only manageable but also stylish and full of life. Stella's friendly and welcoming demeanor, combined with the unique outdoor setting of the salon, made the entire experience even more delightful. She ensured that I was comfortable and satisfied throughout the service, showing her commitment to excellence and client satisfaction. Her passion for making her clients feel and look their best is evident in every aspect of her work. In conclusion, my visit to Stella Style Salon was unforgettable, thanks to Stella's expertise and the enchanting ambiance of the outdoor salon. I left feeling rejuvenated and confident, with my hair looking the best it ever has. I highly recommend Stella Style Salon to anyone looking for high-quality Brazilian blowout, haircut, or color services in a unique and beautiful outdoor setting. Stella is a gifted stylist who ensures her clients leave feeling radiant, both inside and out. read more

This high praise review is long overdue. I came in to Stella's salon 3 months ago, not sure if I wanted / needed the Japanese hair straightening procedure or the less stringent Keratin smoothing process. All I knew is that I wanted to continue letting my hair grow long, but to tame the excessively wavy, frizzy and unmanageable way it gets, even in normal humidity. After a brief consultation during which she explained the differences, Stella steered me towards the Keratin treatment, even though she could just as easily have persuaded me to go for the more expensive Japanese straightening. That in itself meant a lot to me! So Stella worked her magic, and I couldn't be happier with the results! Shortly after the treatment I took a one-week business trip to Kansas working outdoors in high humidity. More recently I was in the Middle East for a one-month assignment, again working in high humidity outdoors. Throughout both trips my hair remained straight and smooth. Stella is very professional and knowledgeable not only about the different hair straightening procedures, but also about how to best care for and maintain the results. She even sent me links for buying the proper sulfate-free shampoo, conditioner and mask products. I guess you have figured out by now that I am definitely returning to Stella when it is time for a re-treatment! read more

First off, my hair is naturally curly so I would straighten it everyday, causing damage and dryness. So initially I came to her for a japanese rebonding service. After carefully checking my hair, she strongly disagreed to me (despite the fact that she could get paid more for that) because she very well knew it will damage my hair all the more. I like how she is very knowledgable but yet sincerely care for her client's hair. We ended up doing brazilian blowout/keratin treatment with color and I am sooo inlove with the turn out. I told her I would love to keep coming back to her every 12 weeks (which would mean business for her, right?) but she still gave me numerous advise on how I can maintain my hair looking healthy and frizz-free so I don't have to always get the treatment that many times so I could save money. And her prices aren't too bad either! She has a package to choose from so you end up paying less for the amount of service you get from her. I am definitely coming back for sure! She does her service at the balcony of her home but don't let that discourage you! Unless you wanna pay more for the name of the salon but it's still your hair stylist that matters more. So try her first and see if you're ever going back to that expensive hair salon ever again. She is my hair saver, that's for sure! Thank you Stella! read more

Japanese Hair Straightening and Keratin treatment Stella is one of the very few people in San Diego offering Japanese Hair Straightening. This is a long (over 4hours) and expensive (over $350) procedure, but it is well worth it for me because of the following reasons. (1) Hair is super-easy to manage (less than 3 min for picture-perfect look), that is HUGE for someone with frizzy dry and long hair like me. (2) It lasts a LOONG time, for the next 6 months at the very least. I have had it done twice now, and I can unequivocally say that Stella did an amazing job!! She took her time to make sure it is done perfectly (that means for almost 5.5 hours for hair as long as mine). She made a genuine effort to find out what I was expecting and what other chemicals (hair color, shampoo, chlorine in swimming pools, etc.) my hair may be exposed to for the near future. Given her extensive experience in this business, she was able to provide advice and level set expectations based on those activities. Overall, I highly recommend Japanese hair straightening if you think your hair is taking too much time every morning. And if you are getting it done in San Diego, I highly recommend Stella!! read more

I recently moved to San Diego and I've been searching who does Japanese straightening system in the area with Yuko(which is the company that created the Japanese straightening system) for a while. I was so happy to find out that Stella Style not only work with Yuko, but had a great promotion in combination with a keratin treatment. For the past 10 years I've been doing Japanese straightening on my hair every year as a model in Yuko academy in NY. Every time I modeled I learned so much from the teachers who certified hairdressers to do the Japanese straightening about all the details in the process. From the consultation with Stella I already knew that she's absolutely knowledgeable and confident with this service. She is very strict and precise with application, processing and testing. She's competent and confident and I can tell that she's been doing this for a long time because she took the same time even faster than my previous times (5 hours). My hair it's smooth silky shiny and pin straight. I'm so happy I found her and I'll definitely be back for my retouch. Thank you Stella! read more

Stella style review Wow, what a wonderful experience I had with Stella @ Stella Style Salon. She has setup her home balcony into a lovely private and safe salon space. I had my doubts about going to a private residence but all that was washed away when I met Stella. She's professional, warm, kind and friendly! Stella's skills are top notch. Her 30 years of experience is evident in the results of my service. I had a Brazilian Blowout/ Keratin treatment done. This made my hair temporarily straight and removed the frizz. My hair is super manageable and easy to style. She sells products that support and maintain the service she did. I love that she uses high end professional product and tool brands, such as Dyson, Matrix, Olaplex, Redken, Loreal, Brazilian Blowout and Keratin Complex. Stella was very flexible and accommodating when making my appointment. We discussed the option to do a Japanese Straightening/ Rebonding treatment in the further. Stella also offers discounts when you bundle services. Thank you Stella!! I will definitely be coming back! read more

This was my first visit with Stella and I will definitely be coming back! First of all she was extremely flexible to fit me into her schedule as I expressed to her I had something very important to get to on very short notice. I had only scheduled a keratin treatment with her considering she must be busy, so when I went in I still had brassy roots from a previous bleaching I had done she went out of her way to squeeze me in to fix my overall light blonde color and even gave me beautiful a haircut. Even though these things were much needed, I only asked for one thing and Stella went above and beyond and absolutely blew me away with the results. I was pretty much speechless once I finally saw myself in the mirror everything looks absolutely beautiful and Stella was so incredibly kind and informed me of my options and in no way made me feel pressured to choose anything other than what we agreed on previously. She knows best and my confidence has been restored! Thank you so much Stella you were the blessing I needed read more

Stella is AMAZING! I used her about a year ago and was so impressed with her as a person as well as her hair techniques and talent. I was able to chat with her like we were great friends , it was nice and refreshing! She has a great studio at her house that I felt extremally comfortable with . Her prices are competitive and reasonable. Contact her before you do Groupon , she will honor the same price and you can get booked quicker. Sometimes I feel like when you have stylists on Groupon they are not as good though that is the opposite for her. Her price was $20 for length past the shoulder and it has increased to $45 for those reading old reviews. I am about to go get another hair cut/color with her in a few weeks and I am looking forward to it. She is going out of town for a bit and has been so gracious in making she could fit me in right before her trip. I am so thankful. Stella you are awesome and I look forward to seeing and visiting with you again! read more

She even honor the price on groupon. I called her directly to set an appoinment instead of purchasing on groupon. Stella is very friendly, kind, and I had a great conversation with her during the service. She explained to me everything before she started doing my hair and gave suggestions for a better hair result. It's so nice to do the service at her back patio and her place is so clean.

I have followed her through three different Salons and I can honestly say, I will not go to any other stylist if I can help it (so, please, please don't move out of San Diego, Stella!). Seriously, when I had to relocate to England for a six month sojourn, I made Stella take pictures of the last haircut she gave me so that I could show it to the hair stylists I might go to. I wear my hair really short, and Stella makes each haircut look so easy and simple. The wretched job that several other stylists did on it made me realize how good Stella actually is! She makes the whole process look simple while always maintaining her smile and welcoming attitude. I cannot recommend her highly enough. read more

After 6 months of going without a haircut, my hair was feeling super dry and frizzy. I work near Portfolio Hair Salon and decided to make an appointment with Stella. Coming in to my appointment she was very punctual and ready as soon as I walked in. Got an amazing shampoo/conditioner! She was super gentle and their products left my hair smelling amazing. Before she even cut a single strand of hair, she asked me exactly what I was looking for and even walked me through the steps of what she was going to be doing. She kept checking in to see if the length was good and if I was okay for her to do specific things such as layering. I'm in love with my hair and it feels so soft and so light!! I will definitely be making all my future haircut appointments with Stella! She's amazing! read more

I'm visiting San Diego & I just got home from having my hair cut, colored & straightened by the beautiful, talented Stella. What she did with my hair was pure sorcery!! I went in there a proper mess! She had to fix the color, fix the cut... She got straight to work, and by some sheer magic, she nailed it!! This is the best cut I've had in recent memory! The color is spot on and flawless. The keratin straightener she used has left my hair soft and shiney and I haven't even been able to wash it yet! If she can make this dramatic difference for me, having never seen me before in her life, just imagine how fabulous you would look if she was always your stylist!! She's amazing! Everything about this experience was positively above & beyond! Call her today!! read more

Stella is amazing!! I've been going to her for a while now and I've never left disappointed. She's cut and colored my hat, given me a various treatments and masks and I've been more than satisfied with her service and personable work ethic. I went to her for my prom hairstyle and she totally nailed it. My hair was shorter at the time, but she managed to find a style that fit my hair length and the round-esque shape of my face. She gave me classy, pin-up curls and even added little accessories to finish the look. Wether you want to change up your look or just want to update you current hair style, Stella is your girl. Whenever I've felt bored with my hair, she's added highlights or bangs to change things up, which few hair stylists can do on the fly. read more

I came to see Stella to get a keratine hair treatment and loved that we could do the first part of the treatment outside because it made the chemicals much less harsh. She gave me a hot tea upon arrival which was really nice. I liked that she was really quick to do the keratin treatment, because sometimes when I've had it done before it can take a long time because my hair is so long! I was also surprised she also does a package deal with highlights so I'll be coming back to do those! Her number was not listed here, but I found it on Google which might help the next person to confirm the appointment - 619-929-6957 Enjoy! You'll LOVE your new hair! Mine looks so good! I love it. very happy to find an affordable keratine hair treatment in San Diego read more

I was recommended to Stella from a friend that got Japanese straightening with keratin treatment haircut and color. Her hair looked amazing and I couldn't even recognized her when I saw her. She gave me Stella's number and when I called her she was able to fit me in for appointment the same week. I'm very picky with whom I'm I trusting with my hair so that's why I just schedule a regular blow dry and curls. She styled my hair beautifully with volume and the curls were perfectly smooth and lasted for long time. I decided to book appointment for my highlights and base color and she was able to do exactly what I wanted. Her prices are surprisingly affordable and the salon is nice and clean. I love the fact that they have a free parking lot. read more

I originally came to Stella for a Japanese straightening & keratin treatment in May and was super pleased with the service for the great price she offers. She is so sweet and genuinely cares about giving you a look that you will love. The second time I came for a cut and style and Stella suggested that I do something new and add some "balayage" or natural highlights, which came out awesome!! I have never had color on my hair before but I knew I could trust Stella with my hair since it came out so good last time I was with her and I'm glad I did!! She gave me a great deal for the whole salon experience that included the haircut, styling and balayage. Would definitely recommend Stella to anyone looking for a trustworthy hair stylist in SD :) read more

Absolutely amazing service!! Stella was so very accommodating, patient, and educative for me. She answered every one of my questions and made me feel incredibly comfortable and as though my curly hair was in good hands! I came to Stella for a haircut and a Brazilian blow out but I also had some previous highlights which came out a bit brassy and orangey. She was able to correct the color all over, and left me with a gorgeous and natural color where some of the highlights still came through! I'm beyond happy with my results and will definitely come to her moving forward for any of my hair needs! I 10/10 recommend her to anyone seeking kind. QUALITY, and KNOWLEDGEABLE. care. She's seriously one of the best! read more

Every one is fond of their own hair wether it is frizzy or dry or rough or unhealthy too, there is a way out rebonding your hair and fell in love with your hair again again when you touch your hair. Yes, you are right! I did my hair rebonding at Stella's salon. She was friendly and the process took less than 4 hours for my hair. Usually my hair is frizzy and dry and I always wanted silky, shiny and smooth hair And now I am satisfied with the Japanese hair straightening treatment by Stella. It may be Japanese straightening system/rebonding treatment plus a keratin treatment. The result was just amazing and now I have lovely hair that everyone likes. I will definitely be back! Thanks Stella read more

I have been trying to find a consistent hairstylist & am so happy I finally found Stella! She helped me after another stylist had done what I thought was irreparable damage.. Dyed my roots a different color than the rest of my hair, didn't tone my highlights (so they looked orange), & gave me a totally unblended "layered" cut. I called around and Stella was willing to come in on her day off to fix it for me. I LOVE the color she did - evened out my dark base & did a perfect caramel balayage. She also blended my layers. Then she gave me great hair maintenance advice & sold me an affordable but good leave-in conditioner that I've been using. I am so happy with my hair and will be coming back! read more
