I live out of town and had to scramble to find a place to get my hair done for a wedding. Thankfully, a friend recommended Marlene, and I called and left a voicemail checking her availability, and shortly after she texted me letting me know she was available to do my hair. She was in constant communication, very accommodating and was lots of fun to just talk to. She styled my hair beautifully and even made herself available in case I, or anyone else at the wedding, needed a touch up later on in the night. Would certainly recommend her to anyone and would use her again. read more

I'm so glad I found Marlene. My esthetician retired last year and my eyebrows were in dire need of some loving. I am extremely skeptical when it comes to trusting anyone with my eyebrows.

Thanks Marlene you're a face saver. read more
