Ugh! You want dred locks? Because that's what you have!" She apparently hates long, curly hair and wants to rid the world of it. Now it will be two years to get back to where I was. Traumatic! P.S. I did not have deed locks, but I did need a trim. Just not 8"-12" off!

I read reviews from Yelp and Google and decided I had gone long enough, I had to make the jump. I am so happy I did with A New Self Imagine. Of course I forgot the paper my previous stylist wrote out for me with the information on my color. But Danielle did such an amazing job and got the color right without it. She was very friendly and set me completely at ease from the moment I walked in. She cut my hair exactly how it needed to be cut to look good with minimal effort and blended the color in so that it looks natural. I am so excited to have found my new stylist in Black Mountain.

As a prematurely gray woman, I wanted to break free from the oppressive routine of full-head coloring, with the constant touch-ups and worries about visible roots. But I didn't want to look older than I was. Monica took me from deep auburn with gray roots, through a series of colorings and styles, to a gorgeous natural silver accented with all the colors of the rainbow, in accordance with my personal style, keeping me presentable and professional looking the whole time. I trust her completely with my hair. Sometimes the appointments do take a while, but it's a trade-off I'm willing to make for her services. I would pay twice as much and feel I came out to the good.

She is a super amazing human AND stylist and I won't be going to anyone else. She knows how to work with my with my hair's natural growth pattern (cowlick).
