She will listen and only work with one client at a time to maximize your experience and satisfaction. I just wish I found her years ago as getting my hair done is now a pleasure rather than a task. Maggie is a perfectionist and has wonderful suggestions. All of her hair color products are natural. I no longer need to sit in a salon breathing toxic fumes and have an itching/burning scalp. She genuinely wants her clients to love their hair and over the last 6 months she has given me advice on products, a fairly inexpensive hair dryer (salon perfection), and general pointers that are invaluable. For the first time, I am wearing my hair down more than ever because her style cut makes my hair manageable. The compliments on my cut, shine and color have been countless. Being a working mom, Maggie understands my schedule and has appointments that work for me. I now look forward to getting my hair done and it no longer takes countless hours.

I rarely have people comment on my hair, but now I am getting constant comments on how great it looks.

I love the feel and ease of caring for my hair since the Blow Out. Her rates are fair and reasonable. Did I mention she is a wonderful caring witty person. I enjoy my visits as I feel I am seeing an old friend and catching with them. I highly recommend Maggie!

What I love about her is the fact that she took her time checking my hair, how to achieve the color I want and the haircut I was aiming for. She did a hair test first before applying color all over my hair which all salons should really do first. Then she explained every process and how long will it take. She took her time doing my Color and Keratin treatment. After 4 hours... I so love the end result and will definitely be back.

I was approached by owner Danielle at my place of employment…read more She offered to pull some of the orange /brassy color out of the color I currently had and WANTED. I also needed my roots touched up so I agreed to call and set up and appt. I had to reschedule my first appointment because my day off got switched at work... She was able to fit me in on a Saturday after I got off work, which would put her past the time she normally worked and I was very greatful! When I got there, I showed her the picture of what I wanted. The same picture I used to get the the color I was currently at, which was not far off. It just had a little more brassy tone than I wanted. After showing her the picture she asked if wanted to cut any of it. I said yes a little. We agreed to right at my breast (my hair was almost at my butt) She cut it across real quick and I was happy with the length. She gave her assistant mixing instructions and then started coloring my hair. As she was coloring it, she said what I'm doing is just starting over. I said ok... as I believed she was just re-foiling the hair (in the same colors , the color in the picture). As she put all these foils in I could estimate this was going to be a full foil price. Not what I agreed to but if she was going to make it look great, I was ok with it. Long story short... She ended up going a whole different route with the color. It pulled super ashy to the point it looks grey/silver/green in most lighting. I don't know why in the salon lighting you couldn't see it but as soon as I walked out side, I could see it and it got worse as the day went on. On top of that when she went in to finish up the cut, you know just clean it up, since she already cut the length to where I wanted it.. She ended up cutting several more inches off and adding tons of layers. Basically a sag cut. Which would have been great if that was what I wanted! She chopped my hair off and didn't even ask! My hair went from all the way down my back, to touching my shoulders. Ladies we all know, when you have your hair long and you don't have any intentions of going short how you feel when someone takes it upon themselves to cut all your hair off! You think that's the end of this story? Then wait for the bill! $485.00 BEFORE TIP! WHY???? YOU ASK? WELL apparently I needed two things of gloss at $55 each on top of the $290 for cut and foil... I also needed another color I didn't know I needed for $95 and then I needed extra product for $20. I went from just remove the brassy and do my roots... To ending up going home with all my hair cut off, an ash gone wild hair color I didn't know I wanted. AND ALL THAT GLOSS I PAID FOR!?!! IDK HIDING BEHIND THE ASH? Is going to get fixed you ask??? Sorry she isn't available any of the days I'm off for the next several weeks and she closes at 5 pm every day so that's not happening. If I came in to her salon and said , I have no clue what I want, I want you to just do whatever YOU want oh and money is no object!..Well then I got what I asked for. But this was not the case.

She even rescheduled my initial appointment when I needed to cancel (with notice). I showed up to my appointment 10 minutes early which gave us more time for the consultation. Once the appointment started, she told me she hasn't taken new clients in over a year because the wait for her existing clients became too long. I asked, "so how did I get here?" She said she didn't know and that maybe I just emailed her at the right time. When I left my appointment with frizzy hair (I guess she doesn't flat iron hair or normally work with curly hair) she told me I could reschedule a new appointment next season or next year, it's up to me... I'm sure she is far more friendly and helpful with her existing clientele. I'm also sure I won't be returning but that is probably alright with Amy.

This review was written the day after my hair was done but held off on posting until now because I…read morehate to leave the review because Tosha is fantastic but I have to based on how I feel about my hair after an appointment that took months of researching what I wanted and hours on end looking at and saving pics to make sure hairstylist was on the same page with what I wanted. My hair didnt look anything like my inspiration pics. Highights didn't go further than top of head area even though I was told that if I get balayage, it would be the only way to get the color I wanted from roots to ends based on some previous color on my ends..(I was trying to avoid bleach and have had my entire head colored the same reddish/copperish color in the past with no bleach but I was told it couldnt be done) From the getgo I was saying how my key priority was keeping my hair healthy- hence why I wanted badly to avoid bleaching after years of growing out my thick hair. I was recommended partial balayage was only way to get a color lift. The color was not what I wanted ! Hilights were not placed like I was hoping in my inspo pics -My hair still looked overall dark even though I mentioned wanting it to stand out a bit and look like I got my hair done at my event. I received absolutely no compliments for the first time after getting my hair done and for the first time did not post a pic after to my social media as I usually do when getting my hair done.Placement almost makes it seem like grown out highlights that need to be redone and I am fully aware of technique used in balayage to make it look dimensional and natural (I worked in salon and have spent A LOT of time watching this be done -painted on- and I have a good eye for what looks good ) Now Im stuck with bleached hair with tons of broken flyaways and a color I don't like after years of growing out my natural hair and paid almost $300 to not like my hair. I have been recovering from 2 really bad hair experiences in the last 5yrs so this was a big step.I asked if she could give me different shades of the color so it looks more dimensional and it was acknowledged but not done I guess to avoid mixing up two separate bowls of color. Color looked worn out and almost like Ive washed it many times..It looks like the color when you know you need to go get your hair done again. It did not pop even in the money piece area as the inspo pics I showed-Unfortunately, I do not like it. I also left with alot of gray hairs which I later noticed around my face and in head that stand out..exactly what you don't want when coming home from the salon. If I am going to pay that much I need to come home with no grays which was one of my first concerns at the hair appointment. That being said, I did not want to leave this review. Tosha was great. She did a very thorough consult and has experience in her craft. The cut was not not the best Ive gotten,first time a hairdresser had razered off my very thick hair instead of cutting. Could have been more even in framed front pieces..that part was done too fast with not much attention at the end to make sure everything lines up. Framed front pieces were two different lengths.Also doesn't look like much of an angle cut now that I came home to inspect..barely an angle which is what I wanted just like the pic I showed her of her previous customer which had a good angle. Overall it was just OK Im not happy with the color or the spacing of highlights or the thickness of them making it look like only front top area is all one color not much contrast in between and color not coming down to ends regardless of being bleached. Back doesn't show much of anything. After deciding to bleach my hair to get what I wanted, I did not get that and now Im in the beginning of the same process of having to start my journey of growing out my hair AGAIN in my 40s! I just washed it today for the first time and I was in tears after. After 4hrs of working trying to tame it the hair texture was crazy frizzy and not like my normal hair The only way I can see myself coming out of the house is if I use a straightener &use high heat every single time I wash!I can imagine what Ill look like this summer at the beach with hair getting wet and beach saltiness. I just wanted to love my hair! The very same night I came home from hair appt, I felt sad and every time I look in the mirror, I feel as if I have to make another hair appointment already. Saw alot of family/friends and no one liked it :( I hate to leave this review as I absolutely loved Tosha. She was sooper nice and sweet and kind and educated you while she worked. She styles great -Regardless of our long consult, I just think there was a miscommunication on what exactly I wanted/expected. I showed her pics so many times just to make sure we were on the same page. The experience with her was great though.
