It was A very interesting experience with Natalie doing my hair. I got the perfect color. Charles helped in that thank him for that. Thank Natalie for her. Patience with me.. Black hair is very different and unique. I have three different textures in my hair. Not many cosmetologist familiar with black hair so it’s hard for our culture to trust everyone. Natalie was very courteous and precious. The staff was great. I mean the instructors with their tips and I’ll be back. I’ll leave my picture below Bridget.
