What people are saying…

On my last visit to Allison I realized that I’ve been coming to her for 15 years! As someone with serious commitment issues I don’t do anything for 15 years! That’s how amazing she is!! I completely trust her and literally just come in and say “do whatever you think is best” because I have that much faith in her. Can’t see myself going anywhere else for color!

Allison - hair goddess, confidant, mindreader, artist. She’s an expert at bringing to life my vague idea about what I want and takes great care in making sure you are comfortable and everyone is on the same page about what to expect. Moreover, she’s a true delight to spend a few hours with in her chair - funny, intelligent, understated but engaging.
