Lori! From the moment YOU walked in, I knew we were going to hit it off. I absolutely adore you and your hair already. I'm delighted to get to know you and look forward to future visits. 

My first appointment with Mychal was an absolute treat; from the moment I walked in the door I felt completely at home and welcome. 
Mychal did a thorough pre-assessment, asked me about my regular hair care routine, what I like about my hair, what challenges I have etc. She then explained to me her process, what her plan was for this cut and confirmed if we were both in agreement ( if what I heard, was what she said, impressive 👍).
I am so happy with my hair cut, it’s perfect. Mychal is lovely, this was the most enjoyable hair cut experience I have had. 
Thanks Mychal 💐 

Mychal as always was amazing! Super knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Also, the products she’s using smell divine and are exactly what my curls needed! 

Dear Heather, 
Thank you so much for allowing me the pleasure of meeting you and doing your beautiful hair. So looking forward to seeing you next time. 

Amazing experience, it was my first curly cut and it went better than I could’ve even imagined. I was nervous about my appointment due to my health issues, but Mychal was incredibly sweet and accommodating for me which I appreciated so much.
