Valerie Newton gave me the best haircut I’ve had in my entire 62 years. She truly listened to what I was describing about what I wanted, took the time, had the patience to look at the pictures, and then skillfully and meticulously and artistically, proceeded with creating exactly what I was hoping for. Valerie took her time and obviously cared. On top of that, she was a joy to be with, fun to talk to, and I felt really at ease and comfortable with her. Even my husband is considering going to get his haircut from her , and that’s a big deal! I highly recommend Valerie.

Lexi is the absolute best! I desperately needed a change and she gave my plain hair a whole new meaning of the “new hair, new me”! I love it!! She’s the first person to do something to my hair in 10 years and didn’t disappoint. I 100% recommend going to her.

I had the pleasure of getting a Facial with Chelsea and look forward to my next one. I left with my skin feeling fresh, supple, and hydrated. The atmosphere was calming, so I was able to relax, and she explained everything she was doing and walked me through the whole process. Sanitation practices were excellent and the products used felt refreshing on my skin. Friendly yet professional. Exactly what I was expecting for my experience. Thank you.
