I went to Taja for a silk press. She did an AMAZING job! I am so happy with how my hair turned out. Taja fills you step by step of what she is doing to your hair. She is very professional and that shows in her work. I am already looking forward to my next appointment. When I called to make an appointment, I was told she is always busy and I see why. Thank you Taja!

Jade is amazing! You can tell she genuinely cares about what she’s doing and about her clients. She was super sweet, professional, and made the whole appointment feel relaxing instead of rushed. My skin looked and felt so good after my service. Can’t wait to come back and see her again!

I had my very first facial today. I wasn’t sure what to expect but it ended up being better than I could have imagined thanks to Jade! She was very good at articulating what she was doing and why. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m grateful for Jade. She gave me and my sister the perfect girls day together. We will definitely be back for more treatments!
