I just recently moved to Crystal Lake and was looking for a new salon and stylist. My experience was great! I had my hair done by Wendy and she did exactly what I asked for. The length, layers and face-framing is perfect and feels so much better. Before the haircut, I told her that it was too long & heavy. My hair is now bouncy and way easier to style and manage. Will definitely be coming back!

I have been contemplating getting my brows done for 8+ years and finally made the jump. Cassandra did powder brows on me and I could not be any happier. They turned out great! 100/10 recommend! Thank you! โค๏ธ

Ella and Anna were amazing people to meet and my hair turned out so soft and fabulous! I had a trim and a treatment done, and added hair tinsel. The products seemed to work well and smelled good, and the tinsel went perfectly with my hair color.
