"Amazing experience! Would give more stars if I could! My first time meeting Katherine was so fun and welcoming. It felt like I was with someone I have known for years. The one on one setting was not awkward at all and she was extremely sweet and inclusive to my boyfriend who tagged along. My hair feels so healthy and she gave helpful tips throughout the appointment. My boyfriend was having a blast and he wasn’t even getting his hair done! Can’t wait to come back and get my hair done again, highly recommend!"

"For the record, this is the first review I’ve ever written for a business that wasn’t owned by a family member! I’m new to California and have been living in the area for about 5 months. In that time, I’ve gone to 4 hair colorists. I don’t know if it was the hard water, the colorists, the products or a combination of all of the above, but my hair went from shiny and healthy to what looked like a cross between a calico cat and a haystack. I’ve never had dry hair or spotty color in my life and was at a loss for how to get it fixed. Enter Katherine! I found Katherine after searching online. She had the most reviews and they were all 5 stars! Now I know why. Like the other reviewers have stated, Katherine is knowledgeable, personable and talented, but she’s also passionate and curious about hair, which is why she can diagnose the root of your hair issues (pun intended). It took 3 hours of removing build-up and applying the right combination of warm color tones, but Katherine restored my hair to its rich, healthy, shiny, glorious self! I already booked 2 more appointments."

"Katherine did an amazing job taking the time to understand my needs and help me develop the best possible plan for the long-term health of my hair. She was so kind and her vibes are impeccable. Katherine knows exactly what she is doing and is extremely detail-oriented and thoughtful throughout her process. She has such great energy and expertise, I could not recommend her more!"

"Katherine is by far the most knowledgeable and skilled person who has ever cut my hair. She takes the time to listen to your concerns and answer any and all questions you may have. She is very attentive to the details of your hair and its history. She knows and explains hair science down to the molecular level which is why her techniques and products are exceptionally good. I ended up buying some of them and after a few months my hair is already the healthiest its ever been, and the haircuts she gives are really phenomenal. She gave me exactly what I asked for which was long layers and they turned out great and still look great after 5 months. She even taught me how to best curl my hair. Her work is 100% worth every penny, because during appointments you not only get amazing hair, you get years of professional knowledge and personalized hair care advice. She is also just a lovely person and really kind! I would recommend her to anyone."

"Katherine color-corrected my very long hair that I had been dying black for years. And wow does it finally look natural again, and now my hair matches my skin tone and I feel pretty again. She is so knowledgeable and answered all kinds of questions that no other stylist has ever talked to me about or helped with. I felt empowered after my appointment with her. I will fly across the country to have her take care of my hair. I’m serious!!!"
