Great results, every time. My hair is 2C-3A and easily goes flat and frizzy, but every appointment gets my hair to curl the way it used to when I was little. Worth every penny!

Bouncy coils

Lydia was very informative. She asked questions and gave me great tips on how to make my curls reach their full potential. My curls havent looked so fresh and full of bounce in ages. Im excited about my natural coils again!

The cut was not what I asked for and…

The cut was not what I asked for and left my ends looking thin on one side . If I compare hair from the same on both sides of my head, it is clear that one side is more than an inch shorter than the other. The shorter side’s layers look very disconnected and like two distinct layers. The face framing isn’t really a framing, more like one single layer of short pieces that doesn’t connect very well to the rest of my hair. Not an awful cut, looks fine if you don’t look to hard at it.

Hi . What you’re describing is an easy fix . I always tell clients and remind clients that that is possible during the two week period of time while hair is changing it’s “behavior “ with the new cut . You can reach out to me through email or text and we can schedule adjustment. Thank you

Worth it

She was very patient with me and explained every aspect of my hair and why it is the way it is- which was extremely helpful. After just one visit I feel as if I learned a wealth of knowledge about how to take care of my hair, simply on a daily basis, which I struggled with every day of my life. Trust her, she knows what she is doing.

I loved the first experience, it was amazing and Lydia was so nice and helpful with the curly tips. I was basically going into blind without having any idea of what I wanted besides layers for my curly hair. I’m super happy with the results.
