I can't believe it's been 4 years of seeing Charesse; time flies when you're having fun. I couldn't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair. She's been amazing with anything and everything I've asked her for. She even gives good hair tips and tutorials so follow her on insta! I have a wedding coming up and wouldn't want to leave my hair in anyone else's hands. My hair has also experienced the most growth ever under her care! We are both in awe every time I see her because my hair has never been this healthy (pre-Charesse). She and the rest of the salon handled covid like champs! I never let unsafe coming into the salon. Everything was sanitized, temperature checks at the door, masks on. Charesse is my hair angel and I am just so glad I have her. read more

I've been going to Charesse since she started and wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair and my kids hair! I love the new salon! It was very easy to find parking. She listens to your wants and needs and executes it perfectly! I took my son in for a trim and he has A LOT of hair she was able to give him a nice shape without taking too much off (per his request) I've personally gotten color, balayage and many haircuts in-between time, she will always be my go-to! read more

I love Charesse!! read more

If you know me, you know that I HATE getting my hair cut. I have trust issues, and have never ever had anyone who could cut and color hair perfectly. I have had crooked hair growing up...and eventually, as I got older, I just cut my own hair (even though it was crooked too haha). Charesse is like the dream hair stylist that finishes your sentences. She reads your mind. She knows what looks good on you and how it's done and how she will do it. She is so good, she makes me feel like she's a celebrity stylist because of how nice the outcome always is. Let me say, my hair was looking a little faded before my last appt and it had been a few months since I had my hair done...and I was still getting compliments! I'm talking my hair had split ends and my blonde was getting brassy...but guess what? People was loving my hair STILL! they said they loved my balayage...that is how you know you have a dope stylist! I'm not sure how to describe my hair experience...it is SOO relaxing. I always want to fall asleep because the salon/Charesse are soo calming and relaxing. I would trust her to cut my hair blind if need be. Okay, when she washes your hair, it is like the BEST hair washing I've ever had. Head massage and everything. And I do recommend the same shampoo/conditioner she uses as I faithfully use the same brand now for shampoos, oils, and dry shampoo, yayer! Recently, I got my balayage done this month....and I seriously still get compliments. People compliment me on my hair cut and my hair color quite frequently. Not to brag or anything, but that makes me so happy because my hair has probably never been healthier and this nicely styled ever. People often tell me they love my balayage (the tone, how it looks and how it blends soo well). Literally my coworkers always know when I have my hair down and they can't stop talking about it. That makes me so happy and excited to tell them about Charesse!! If you're like me...or not... I hate taking care of my hair. I used to love to, but then it felt like more work. So I just stopped caring for it until last year. It wasn't until Charesse that I started to really try to use products again. You know you have a great and reliable hair stylist when she cares about your hair more than you! She always tells me when it's time for a trim, and she always gives me suggestions for products I need for my flat hair. & I find that she genuinely cares for her clients. I find her to be personable, kind, and truly wanting to get to know her clients and build a rapport. The very few cons to this salon? There's a lack of parking that's not 1 hr only. I am thankful there's always a few hidden in the residential spots. Otherwise, Charesse always offers tea or water, always checks in, and always makes sure you are satisfied and comfortable! Price range is on the higher end-- I can guesstimate it's about over $100 for a gloss and hair cut. This is just a general idea of the price range, but prices are listed on her website. I hope you get a chance to book with her. My hair is bomb now that Charesse has graced me with her talents! read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - Hard to see, but this was my 1st balayage - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

8 years later and I'm am still loyal to the one and only Queen of Hair, Charesse! Reading my first review almost 8 years ago and not much has changed except that Charesse continues to improve her skills and knowledge of all things HAIR and skin as well too! I have learned so much from her about my hair and how to best take care of it! I swear by her maintenance methods as it has changed my overall health since I bleach it regularly. Over the years she has pretty much done whatever I asked, within reason, lol! Even when I finally reached the blonde I wanted then said RED please...... She is honest about the outcome and will do her best to give you both sides good and bad. I get SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many compliments about my hair, even when I'm a week away from my next appointment! People ask who does my hair and are willing to follow her on social media to get one of her "coveted" accepting new clients notifications, otherwise wait in line with the other ladies dying for her to touch their hair! read more

I had virgin hair and was picky with who I wanted to dye my hair first. One of my best friends recommended coming to Charesse! I wasn't in a hurry to dye my hair so I made the appointment for May back in September. I'm really glad I went to Charesse! She is very knowledgable and for a noob like me, she was very patient with explaining the dyeing process and the care that I'd have to do afterwards. She answered all my questions and I can say I'm very happy and pleased I was able to go to her! She's extremely pleasant to talk to and you can tell she's passionate about her work. I highly recommend her if you're able to get an appointment! Thank you again Charesse, especially for making my hair look bomb before the Beyoncé concert! read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - Love it. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Charesse is the best!!! Please look at before/after pictures. She transformed my dry hair into healthy, thick and shiny hair. She is always there for her clients, always honest about the results. She never pushes people to buy her products, like other salons do. Personally, I really appreciate it, I don't like to feel like my stylist wants to sell me something I might not need. I am never changing my stylist again! read more

I admit I am the pickiest client when it comes to the hair. I analyze every cut, every color placement, the shampoo, and how my hair lasts after it's been done-the whole shebang. I was on the hunt for someone who could replicate the instagram raved stylist, Guy Tang in L.A. I almost even thought about flying down to L.A to just get my hair done, but then I found Charesse. Charesse is the REAL deal. I have prayed to the hair god(s) (..maybe there is more than one?...who knows) and they have answered my prayers. THE HITS: (1) Charesse's color technique is detailed, thorough, and consistent. My balayage/ombre is beyond words! Every section of my hair has unified, yet well sectioned, color pieces. (2) Charesse knows I'm trying to grow my hair out, so she carefully cuts my hair in long layers to keep my hair healthy without chopping off her color job. (3) Her SHAMPOOS! errrrrrr mai gawd they are heavenly. I feel like I'm getting a mini massage session. (4) My hair color lasts a good 2-3 months before I need to get touched up again. THE MISSES: ..........NONE! Truly none. Not one stinkin' complaint. I'll be devastated if Charesse ever leaves Washington! So please do not move :) read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - Charesse's 2nd session on me :) Gorg! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is a loooong over due review! I've gotten my haircut from Charesse twice already. Once two years ago and again just last month. The two times I have came in to get a cut I've left out smiling! My first visit from the last years, was great!I had long length hair at that time and I needed some layers. I was very hesitant but I had full faith in her to give me what I wanted. She did exactly that! Medium length hair with long layers. I loved it. Recently the last month I came in to get another cut from her. This time I had my mind set on doing something completely different. I've had long hair pretty much my whole life and wanted to change it up because I was getting bored of the length and needed something new. As Charesse and I were discussing in what I wanted, I just literally told her to do her wonders! I was totally fine in chopping my length. As she finished up and turned me around, my jaw dropped. I was in complete shock because my hair was short.. but I LOVED IT! She gave me a mid length cut with layers. I had never see my hair so short. It felt amazing with how light it felt. She showed me how to style it and it was super cute and bouncy! I left so happy and it surpassed my expectations. It's beautiful! Honestly I thought my hair wasn't going to look like how it did the day she cut it few days later. But it still does! It is so easy to style and I STILL LOVE IT! I'll be going in february to get a color.. which I have also never done, but I have complete faith in Charesse to do her magic once again! Thank you so much Charesse! See you in February! And congrats on the engagement! (: read more

This is a review long overdue! I stumbled upon Charesse through her IG and managed to book an appointment with her as a first time client. I've gotten a haircut and one balayage session done by her last year. If you know me, throughout my life I've ALWAYS had virgin black dry frizzy hair. The year before I met Charesse, I decided to dye my hair for the first time on a whim.... womp womp womp... in the PHILIPPINES. Boy... was that a mistake. It was basically like letting my 12 year old nephew dye my hair with dollar store box dye in the dark! Until I met this remarkable woman! Charesse was adept at fixing the mistakes that was made previously on my hair and afterwards I came out of her salon lookin' like a goddess! EVERYONE would compliment me & I felt so confident in myself lol. Charesse is very humble, very professional, doesn't make anything awkward through the session and makes sure we are very comfortable in her seat ESP when you're sitting for 3+ hours! She gives out detailed advice if you ask & massages/shampoos oh so gentle on your scalp. Also, she shares the salon with many other stylists so other clients do come & go! I love how clean & well-lit her salon is as well! I also like the location of her salon! Very nice to walk out to when it's a beautiful sunny Seattle day! read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - I took this picture of myself from her Instagram! Before & after. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I had to update my review because of how accommodating Charesse is! I contacted Charesse a few weeks ago hoping she'd be able to freshen up my hair before I had to fly out of state, and to my surprise she pushed back her own mom's appointment to squeeze me in the day before my departure! I've never before received this kind of treatment from a stylist and can honestly say that Charesse goes above and beyond in all aspects of her work. I can't praise her enough; she's the best. I'm so happy with the level of service I received and with my new color! read more

If you are lucky enough to snag an opening when she is accepting new clients, you will not be disappointed! There is a reason Charesse has been booked for so long--she's the best! I've been going to her for years and I always love the results. She takes the time to listen and make sure you are happy. I've had everything from simple trims, to a full balayage. She is knowledgeable about her craft, and which products work best with your hair type. I highly recommend her! read more

I almost didn't want to write this review because I wanted to keep Charesse a secret but she deserves an applause. I'm not the kind of girl who usually pampers or spoils herself but I really wanted a change. I found Charesse's page and was excited to see great reviews but was still a bit skeptical. Luckily, I stumbled across her Instagram (@charesse) and was blown away by ALL her recent and amazing work!!! She specializes in color, mostly balayage and ombre. Charesse is seriously my hair goddess. After showing her some pictures and telling her a general idea of what I wanted, she knew exactly what to do. I tend to get nervous sitting in that chair but Charesse made me feel the most comfortable I have ever been in a hair salon and didn't make our conversations seem forced. She is extremely down to earth yet professional in her field. I've been here twice so far, and have always left with a huge smile and lots of confidence. My hair has never felt as fantastic in my life as after leaving the salon. I believe in paying for quality and I completely trust Charesse. with my hair. Her customer base is growing exponentially and you should expect to book any appointment around 3 months in advance (http://cutzbycharesse.com). I also really appreciate her for answering all my questions about how to take care of my hair and what to do with it. read more

I think it's time for an updated review + picture. This woman really is the ombre/bayalage queen! I will never go to anyone else for my hair care needs, ever. Charesse has earned my trust with my hair a long time ago and she continues to earn many other client's trust, too. Which is great because she deserves all the loyalty! Her prices are reasonable, her work is fantastic, and her policies are definitely understandable. She's booked 3-5 months out depending on the service you're requesting, so that alone should tell you something about her work! You'll want to book as many touch up appointments as her calendar will allow. I did! Love love love her and the talent she's been blessed with. read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - This was from my last appt with Charesse in May 2015. I STILL get compliments on how good my hair looks! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I was brought here by fellow yelper Kim P. My bestie and her bestie are friends, so I guess we are bestie-in-laws. If you've read some of my other reviews for salons, I get really nervous when it comes to my hair. I have curly hair (think Simba of Lion King), so it's not always the easiest for everyone to work with. As I get older, I realize that a good hairstylist, is simply a good hairstylist. Charesse falls into this category. You know my litmus test: the shampoo bowl. If I wasn't happily married, I would have this woman's baby. She scrubbed and massaged my hair so good that I had to catch my mouth from falling open. She deep conditioned, flat-ironed and layered my hair, and her prices are super reasonable! She took the time to go over some hair products with me. The benefit here is two fold. First, she doesn't sell product for profit (at least not yet and although she should), so she shared her hair knowledge just because she loves to see beautiful hair. Second, my hair feels silky, but not heavy--not an easy feat for my hair. I usually don't flat iron because it doesn't last long for me, but the lion is still tamed straight. Not a bump in sight. The best part, you get Gene Juarez hair, for a reasonable price. read more

I think one thing everyone who goes to get their hair done can agree on is: We appreciate it when you do more than listen, but understand exactly what we want and need. Charesse has fulfilled this expectation of mine every time. Just like most women, I believe there is no one else in the world with hair like mine and I'm extremely nervous when it comes to letting people do anything to my hair, whether it be coloring or cutting. I gave Charesse a chance after seeing multiple clients of hers who were all of different ethnic backgrounds. This assured me that she wasn't only used to doing stick straight hair and had a good amount of experience with different hair types. I went to Charesse a couple years back and had her fix my at-home dye job. She literally did everything I wanted and then some. I didn't plan on getting my hair cut being that I was scared to let anyone cut my hair other than my mom, but I allowed her to do so and she did a wonderful job. When I told her "just a trim" she knew a trim didn't mean 6 inches like some others tend to think it means. Because of this, I returned to her again when I decided to go blonde. Charesse does exactly what she says she'll do; she'll take care of you. She's constantly having promotions and deals go on for her new and returning clients. A lot of places will post up "50% off all color services" and then have in small print "for new clients only" but again, Charesse takes care of ALL of us, new and returning clients. :) If you're looking for a professional Ombre or a well-done color job, whether it be a partial-foil or your whole head, Charesse is your go-to girl. read more

PROS: Best haircut I've ever had. Charesse is an expert on thick, Asian hair. Extremely knowledgable, very honest and upfront about what looks good and works for your type of hair. CONS: I'll never be able to get my hair cut by anyone else and will have to live near Charesse for the rest of my life, so I hope she wants to move to Hawai'i in a few years... I found Charesse by chance on Yelp and decided hmmm, maybe I need a haircut. I hadn't had one in months and it was long, heavy, lost all layers and just plain drab. I have thick Asian hair and it's really hard to find anyone that can deal with this. I looked through her Instagram photos and found a cut I thought would work with my hair - mid length, blunt, with lots of long layers. However, I was torn between shortening my layers and still being able to put my hair up in a ponytail. Historically it was always one or the other. Well, Charesse cleaned up my layers, cut about 4 inches off and thinned it out with a razor and I was still able to put my hair up. It was my dream come true. The cut was so flattering I would check myself out in every mirror or window I passed all day long. Still do and my cut was back in November of 2014. I also got my hair colored by Charesse a few weeks after my cut. Initially I had wanted to lighten my hair significantly (I have naturally jet black hair so it would be some work getting it as light as I wanted it) , but Charesse had suggested something more subtle due to me not styling my hair and doing the more I-just-got-back-from-the-beach-messy look, saying it wouldn't really work as well. At first I was kind of like, uhhh, well I still want it really light, but okay? When she was done it was really subtle and I wasn't sure if it was what I wanted, but as I would look through her work again on Instagram I agreed it definitely would look odd on my hair if I didn't style it everyday and am now really happy with my more subtle coloring. So in the end, Charesse really knows best and knows what the hell she's talking about :) I seriously cannot wait until my next color/cut in a couple of months. I kind of want to get my hair cut/colored all the time to see what she can create. She is a genius with thick, Asian hair and overall very experienced. Seriously, worth every penny. You will not regret a thing coming to Charesse. read more

I'm very particular about my hair.. But I knew once I saw photos of Charesse's work I was in good hands and had nothing to worry about. I walked into the salon with hair that I thought I was happy with ("thought" being the key word)- no big complaints just a trim and to lighten up my color. Charesse consulted with me first and then worked her magic using her signature ombre/balayage technique. I left her chair with hair that I was IN LOVE with! My hair looks amazing!! I couldn't be happier with my cut and color from Charesse. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a hair stylist who is super sweet, professional, knowledgeable, experienced, and a perfectionist at her craft. Im already counting down the days until my next appointment with her! read more

After combing through Yelp looking for great stylists close to home, I stumbled across Charesse's reviews - and her Instagram account. I was wowed by her evident expertise, especially the balayage. I scheduled an appointment alllll the way in February, but Charesse put me on her waitlist after a consultation and I got in two weeks after that! Yay! I'm a natural brunette, but I'd been keeping up with monthly double process appointments since April to maintain platinum blonde hair. I'd had a little more depth added at a different salon, but I decided that it would be nice to have something lower maintenance while keeping the overall blonde impression. I asked Charesse for a natural looking root halo and a partial balayage, a dusting for split ends and long layers to add a little more volume. Apart from her color magic, Charesse stands out for three reasons: 1) She is SO FAST. I booked an appointment for two hours and I was out in 1.5. I'm used to appointments taking 2 - 5 hours. 2) As another reviewer has mentioned, her shampoo technique is divine. 3) I have never had softer hair than when I walked out of that salon. It smelled good and it stayed soft for days, holding up through dry shampoo and various stylings. PLUS, although she is crazy busy and booked out for months, she made room for me in her schedule to make things right when I wasn't totally happy with my roots. I look forward to my next appointment with Charesse! read more

Has it really been 7 years girl?! Once you go to this girl, you can't ever go to anyone else. Believe that! When I was 18 years old, the inverted bob that was made famous by Rihanna from the Umbrella music video was THE hair cut to have. I went to someone else at the time to get that - an old family friend aka my mom's hairstylist to get it done. Meh. Didn't really care much about hair because I knew it would grow back. It was cute, I guess. Grown out? NOT so cute. I looked like one of those weird anime characters who had the longest bangs but the shortest length. A reversed mullet if you will. I'm probably exaggerating but whatever. Didn't like it. But I knew I needed to get it fixed and for a decent price. I don't know many working college students who can afford hair from Gene Juarez w/o a hook up or a parent that buys them everything. But I knew I had a friend who was going to beauty school and figured I'd give it a shot. Who knew from then on, I found my hairstylist for years and years to come! she fixed my grown out inverted bob and made me one length again! YAY! Now, fast forward to today. I've tried almost every hair color that looks pretty decent on me. I ask her to do whatever works - I give an idea but honestly I hate deciding this kind of stuff. It's like going out to eat w your significant other and you bicker at each other because you two can't decide. Well, that's me. I'm the worst - don't ever ask me. I'm "down for whateva" when it comes to food, but when it comes to hair Charesse knows what looks good. I've had long, short, (now medium!), purple, blonde, bronde, copper, even a feather in my hair! I've been seeing her since GJ Academy to The Shop and now Salon OnetwoOne or 121? I forget but yes, I am LOYAL to her! No one knows my hair like she does! She knows how to get me to decide on a color/look, and I'm grateful that she's always so willing to teach you and answer your questions about hair. She's the sweetest girl, and gives the best scalp massage EVER! I've referred two of my closest friends to her and they themselves can't even go anywhere else. One tried but she learned the hard way! But anyway, my point is - you cannot ever ever go wrong when it comes to going to her. She's not accepting new clients right now but when you see that she is..POUNCE! She truly is the real McCoy or in this case the "Balayombré Queen"! read more

The first time I went to see Charesse for my hair was some time in 2010, since then, she's been the only person to touch my hair. I've followed her for three locations so far and hopefully she'll have her own spot in the future! My hair is naturally reallyyyy curly and thick. I used to go to cheap Vietnamese places and I never went home happy. Charesse really takes the time to listen to what I want and I trust her completely when I let her decide what's best for me. She has so much experience working with all types of hair so it's easy to trust her with my complicated hair. I alwayssss leave feeling so pretty :) I never had the guts to try anything new with my hair until Charesse. I've gotten bangs, short layers, and an ombré, among routine trims. I get a ton of compliments on my hair! I've since referred multiple clients to her including my mom, sister, and two of my cousins. I highly recommend her. I have nothing but great things to say about her work. She's amazing! read more

Charesse is a miracle worker! FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY I have a hair stylist that GETS ME! I feel like everywhere I've gone-including Gene Juarez, the service is so generic. They do a good job but they don't know how to personalize what you want. Charesse is truly an artist. She can make a masterpeice with the few peices of scraps you give her to work with and use your ideas in the best way to compliment your face and body. I've never been this satisfied with any hair stylist. If you wanna keep with the latest fashions and stay looking freshhh to deff, GO SEE CHARESSE! read more

I recently had an appointment with Chareese just before thanksgiving and I am so happy my appointments are lined up the way they are (just in time for special events) I came in knowing I wanted to chop off my hair, kind of in a long bob. I didn't show her any pictures of anything specific, I just wanted it all off and that is exactly what happened lol. It feels great knowing I have a hairstylist I can trust and return back to. I feel bad for anyone who can't see her because of her booked schedule, she's so great at what she does! If you're lucky enough to fit in her schedule, she's definitely worth the wait. read more

Posse Studio By Charesse Parks - My new cut - Hair Stylists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I am a huge fan of Charesse's artistry via IG. Unfortunately, Charesse is not taking new clients, but I sent her an email asking if she has any stylists she refers to. She went back and forth with me on email for a few days. She asked for pictures of my hair as well as pictures of what my final goal for my hair is. Then she recommended one of her coworkers who she feels would be able to help me achieve my final result (hopefully in time for my wedding in August). I cannot praise her enough for her outstanding customer service. And I'm not even her client! If there were a 100 star rating on Yelp she would get it! read more

This is an auntie review so you may think it's biased. However, if my hair wasn't looking cute and on point you better believe I would not be getting my hair done here! I let Charesse know what I have in mind and she will do it or disagree and will tell you "NO". Sometimes I just trust what she has in mind and let her run with it, like the time when she wanted to do an ombre on me and I didn't know what the heck it was. I'm proud to say I was her first! Recently I wanted to go with a blue balayage but she said "no" but agreed on the red then educated me on the upkeep of it. I have gotten so many compliments! This is her calling. read more

I would definitely recommend everyone to Charesse! I had been in the process of going from red to blonde for the past two years, and Charesse finally has it at the color I've been longing for. I get compliments ALL the time on my color, and have no one to thank but her. Definitely check her out if you're looking for a color specialist! She's dope! read more

You haven't gotten a real ombré until you got one by Charesse! Hands down...she's the best!

Charesse is awesome. I'm impatient, and usually like to book hair appointments day of---when I finally get fed up and need a change, but after a few mediocre colors from other stylists, I did my research and found Charesse on Instagram. I had to wait 3 months for an appointment with her, but it was worth it. She listened to what I didn't like about my previously color, and then asked me what I wanted this time. I told her to just do her thing (I'd seen a lot of her work and knew she was a pro I could trust). Three hours later, I walked out with the best balayage I've ever had. read more

I went to Chareese maybe a year or two ago for a color correct. I had gotten my hair balayage'd/ombre'd for the first time at the hair salon that usually cuts my hair. That stylist unfortunately, did not know how to handle asian hair since it's so dark, I had color on only the top part of my hair and the underneath was all black...it was a disaster. I eagerly made an appointment with Chareese and thank god!!! She was able to fix it and make it look so much better!! Ever since that, I seriously can't even imagine going to anyone else to get my hair colored, I trust her completely with any and all suggestions that she has. Not only is Charesse so kind and funny but she also knows her stuff. I've gone to her for a couple of glosses and now 2 colors. I was lucky enough to get a Saturday color appointment...which let me tell you, is like gold or better. I got my first cut AND color by her...and it's exactly what I wanted...I could not be happier with the results. She listened to what I wanted and when I left the salon it was PERFECT. I am in love with my new do, so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU so much for everything today. I cannot wait for my next appointment. Charesse is a hair god and you should definitely go to her, you will not be disappointed. read more

Don't bother requesting an appt via yelp. You will be directed to check out a website that shows it's fully booked. Talk about a waste of time. read more

This is my third time seeing Charesse after a long break. She did an excellent job! She had a vision and she executed very well. My hair was growing out - we decided to go mid length bob layers and a subtle ombre with gloss. I love it! Charesse is a sweet and creative gal, if you want to get a balayage or ombre give her a visit! read more

I think I have found my hair GURU! I'm not one to keep my hair maintained every couple of months, the last time I got a hair cut was 7 months ago, but it is always nice to leave feeling in love with your hair ...and that's just what happened. I found her on Instagram and it was like finding a hidden gem. When I get my hair done, I always look forward to getting my hair shampooed. I can always tell if someone is going to do my hair perfect or terrible by the way they shampoo, lets just say Charesse was sent from the SHAMPOO GODS!! The best shampoo I have had ever in life, she even massaged my freaking head, I was literally blown away. You definitely can tell she is passionate about her work, just by the way she gave me information on my hair type, texture, and what products to use for it. I went in with a cut I had in mind and she actually listened and made suggestions on how we could make the cut more suitable for my hair ...she even demonstrated how I should curl my hair to achieve the look I want. Everything about the experience I had was positive, she will definitely be getting my business from now on. Anyone looking for a great hairstylist who is knowledgeable about her craft, shes your girl!!! ....and you better hurry up and book her because shes booked out until March ...and after her doing my hair I can see why. read more

Back in June I was in desparate need of a 'new do' and I stumbled upon Charesse here on yelp, and then I stalked her IG. She did such amazing work! When I found out that she was booked up for 4 months, I was so bummed. I made an appt with someone at her salon for a cut (by Yale - she's awesome!), and then I got a chance to meet Charesse...I let her know that I needed color/balayage. And guess what?!...there was a opening in a month, so I booked it! When appt time came for Charesse, it was fabulous! She's so talented and knowledgeable...she listened to what I wanted, and also made some suggestions as well. My hair turned out so good! The color was perfect, and exactly how I wanted it! Since that first appt, I seen her another time for a gloss/toner. My next balayage appt is in February...and I can't wait!! :) Charesse really is the BEST and I recommend that everyone go see her....if you can get in (I think she's booked up till June or July)! read more
