She is absolutely fast and can give you any haircut/style/color exactly the way you want! (if you show her a picture she can achieve the same look for you!) She can also recommend any style that fits you if you don't know what style to go for. By having more than 20 years of experience with hair, she knows exactly what she is doing ;). Give this place a try! you will thank me later :)

Mom walks out every time with a fantastic haircut, great styling, and an even better conversation. It's the kind of place where you feel taken care of, not rushed. Highly recommend this salon for excellent cuts, thoughtful styling, and truly personalized service.

This was my first time getting my lashes done, and I have to say that it was a great experience. I…read moredidn't have to worry about space because she takes clients in her private studio. Maria was very nice and friendly! I could tell she was there early because everything was already setup and ready. My lashes lasted more than 2 weeks and I went back to get them filled in and they lasted another 3 weeks. So, 5 stars! She even gave me advice on aftercare on how to accommodate the cleansing of my lashes since it was my first eyelash experience; so I did not have to go through the trouble to find the right cleanser , brush etc . All you really have to do is show up. Will definitely be going again for my next event. Thanks again, Maria!!

Deb and Milan are fantastic hair and make-up artists. I had the most interaction with Deb. She…read morewas very communicative before my wedding. Additionally, she was kind and flexible when I needed to reschedule my trial at the last minute because of my dog being sick. Most importantly, she gave me a look that I wanted on my wedding day, which was a big departure from the trial, both at my direction. This showed both her skill and flexibility. I can't recommend Deb and her team enough.

The owner (Waffa) started out great the first two times I went in for a hair appointment but like…read moreother reviewers posted, her work product really went downhill. Twice I walked out with uneven edges (drastically so). The first. time I chalked it up to an honest mistake but when it happened again, it clearly shows that she stopped putting in a good effort. She tends to rush through it. Also, fails to brush off/remove the hair that has fallen onto our shoulders/neck etc. Just like someone else posted, if you get an "appointment" do not expect it to be honored. I still had to wait about 25 minutes for her to finish someone else up. In that case, do not even provide appointments and just say it's a first come, first serve basis. On some occasions when I dropped in and (there were no people but she was on the phone) she seemed annoyed that she had to hang up to take care of a customer. Hair salons are so abundant in the city, I am sure I can find one that provides much better customer service and actually cares to provide a good quality haircut.

They asked for pictures ahead of time so that they could come prepared and they were patient and asked questions to make sure each person looked and felt beautiful on the wedding day. On top of Kasha's professional skills, she is an absolute joy to work with. Kasha is so cheerful, calm and joined in on the conversation as everyone was getting ready. Your hair and makeup is the start to such a special day, and I can't think of a better person to start it off with than Kasha. THANK YOU Kasha! We feel so lucky to have been introduced to you!

I hired Kasha for hair/makeup at my wedding in Lake Geneva, WI on 12/15/18 and I can't rave enough…read moreabout her. She is such a lovely person and very easy to work with. We did a test run about a month before the wedding and I did a total 180 the day of and went with an entirely different look -- no problem for Kasha! I was so happy with my makeup and hair, she made me feel beautiful. Just as I requested, my skin was dewy and my eyes glowed. A smash hit that lasted all day and all night long. She (along with her colleague Debbie Petrielli) also did hair and makeup on my bridal party and moms. A truly wonderful person and talented artist, there is not one thing I would change about my experience with her. I highly recommend.

Thank you, Linda! Can't wait for my next visit!

I told miles this and without putting too much hair spray or making my hair brittle, she managed to give me curls that last a full 24 hours!

My wedding is in India next year, and if I could take them along with me I would!
