Hair Coloring
Our expert colorists specialize in permanent color, balayage, and corrective treatments using professional-grade products. We offer customized color solutions for all hair types, including Hollywood-inspired techniques and natural-looking root touch-ups. Each consultation includes personalized recommendations for maintaining color vibrancy and hair health.
Balayage
This freehand highlighting technique creates natural, sun-kissed effects with seamless grow-out. Our stylists use advanced balayage methods developed through training with Mechas & Mechas and Masters of Balayage. Prices start at $200 for full application by our master colorists.
Keratin Treatments
Our keratin smoothing system reduces frizz by up to 95% while maintaining hair health. The treatment infuses keratin deep into hair cuticles for lasting manageability. Sessions include customized aftercare instructions and typically last 2-3 months depending on hair type and maintenance.
Hair Extensions
We offer multiple extension types including tape-in, clip-in, and bonded options for natural volume and length enhancement. Each application includes a consultation to determine the best method for your hair type and desired look. Pricing varies based on hair quality and application complexity.

I went to this salon today and am happy with my experience. Ray helped me and did an awesome job on coloring (balayage) my hair. He was very sweet and professional, I highly recommend him. If you're looking for someone who knows how to take care of all your hair needs the best possible way, Ray is the guy for it. Service: Balayage

Stephanie did an amazing cut on my long straight hair. I've had some pretty awful haircuts and was looking for someone who has been cutting hair for years. Not only is she skilled, but she brings in her adorable pup as a mascot of friendliness and sweetness!

I had a similar experience to another reviewer, I scheduled an appointment for a haircut with Steph and did not quite get what I was looking for. I was really bummed about it, but decided to try and reach out to the owner Janan and I'm so glad I did. She was so kind and completely understood my situation, within a week she scheduled me with Ray who is amazing! Such a pleasure to talk to and he fixed the haircut with magic scissors, I'm really in love with what he did : Great salon, and experience with Ray and Janan and I will definitely return for future cuts!
