    Madelyn was great. She listened to what my concerns were and what I wanted. She's super fast too!

    Add a little bit of madalyn spice

    10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!! She took my hair from blorange (blond orange) to this beautiful creamy hair. Her personality and character shines through during your appointment. She makes you feel comfortable and provides an amazing experience.

    Madelyn was absolutely amazing from day one. She was patient during my hair trial and listened to exactly what I wanted in my wedding day. Not only was she amazing with me but she was SO kind and patient with my mom day of. My mom isn't used to getting dolled up and it can be a bit uncomfortable for her. She also has extremely curly hair which not a lot of stylists know how to work with... but Madelyn did! She talked with my mom like she was the only one in the room... making her feel comfortable and taken care of. More than anything that morning, that calmed my nerves. My mom looked gorgeous and I felt like an absolute queen that day. No one could have come close to the work Madelyn did. Forever grateful.

    Thanks to Madelyn my hair is REVIVED! It was platinum blorange with pieces breaking off literally every day. Very tragic. I pm'ed Madelyn and she got me in the next day. She is AMAZING!

    This is a "cave" of wonders! I came to Madelyn wanting to add blonde to my hair while keeping a natural look and WOW she did that! My hair not only looked gorgeous but was still so healthy after. Did I mention she dyed, washed, and straightened it in under two hours while doing a killer job. I'm blown away! Never did I expect to love my hair so much and receive such amazing service. I had heard of Madelyn through a friend as a recommendation for a wedding hair stylist, which she also is amazing at. A braid specialist, her styles are that out of a brides dream. Madelyn was not only professional but so kind to me. Her salon is adorable! The cave is decorated like something from your favorite western film. A beauty shop twist on a cowgirls dream, the cave is a place of hair magic and southern glam. I highly recommend seeking out Madelyn If you're looking for a great stylist who's passion truly shows through her incredible work. A million thank yous!! I love my hair!!

    Hair Extensions for wedding day

    I knew I wanted someone trained in beaded row wefts (hand tied extensions) for my wedding so I did my thorough research and found Madelyn. Let me just drop some truth for anyone searching for your perfect wedding hair stylist or extension when I say she is TOP NOTCH!! She has excellent skills, charming demeanor and is an international consultant for hair styling. She is open to suggestions but also honest in what your hair type can actually achieve. Trust the professionals guys!! She did such an incredible job on my extensions and my wedding hair that I ended up staying with her for my continued extensions and highlights a full year later. I have even changed my hair color a few times and she continues to blow my mind with the outcome. She has even saved my hair on a few occasions from poor self care (lol) and I am so grateful for her constant attention to detail. Not many people out there have you as their #1 focus at each and every appointment. Madelyn is your sole client during that time, she doesn't pawn you off to some assistant. She provides 5 star results and gives 5 star customer care.

    Wedding Trial

    Madelyn is amazing! I am so happy I came across her profile when looking for someone to do my hair for my wedding. I came in for a trial and just knew I needed to book her ASAP! She made me feel so comfortable. I loved how honest, passionate, funny, and talented she was. I also loved how dedicated she was to making sure I was happy with the end result. After my wedding, I decided to come to her on a regular basis for my cuts and color. It's been a year now since I first went in for my wedding trial and I couldn't be happier! Not only can she do great hair but she is also a good time! She always has me laughing!

    Madelyn was an absolute genius. Let me start by saying I have A LOT of hair, down to my behind. It was my best friends wedding and it was going to be a hot weekend in Temecula. I was so torn, I wanted an updo because it was so hot but I was terrified that because of how heavy my hair is.. that it would have fallen out mid reception. Then I thought maybe down, but again, I have so much hair I would have looked like cousin it on the dance floor. I opted for the most insane bohemian side braid pony I could find on Pinterest, in hopes that whatever she delivered would be somewhat close to the photo I showed her. (I have heard she is a braid queen!!!) so it had to be a sure thing. The second I sat in her chair and showed her the photo.. she was just as pumped as I was. What a relief. She did put her own twist on it.. she was real honest about an actual braid and how much hair I have - that it wouldn't survive if I was getting wild on the dance floor lol so she did some sort of magic and it looked EVEN BETTER than the pinterest magic I showed her! How?! I LOVED my hair, everyone in the bridal party loved my hair, and I received a flood of compliments on it all evening. The best part?! I danced like no one was watching all night, literally. Danced. So. Hard. I woke up in the morning to find my big bohemian - better than pinterest - braid still TOTALLY in tact. Hair voodoo! She was great.

    Loved my bridal hairstyle Madelyn did
    Melissa H.

    Madelyn did a wonderful job for my June wedding in Temecula. Everyone's hair lasted all night even though it was quite hot and sweaty that day. She made sure everyone was happy with their hairstyle and made sure to make any adjustments if needed. We even finished ahead of schedule, and she did 9 girls hair plus two little flower girls.

    Madelyn is amazing! I have been going to her for my hair appointments for the past 6 years. I drive an hour just to see this girl & at the end of my hair trip it is always worth it! The minute I sit in the chair it's girl talk non stop. She has educated me so much about my hair type and always goes into detail about what my hair will look like if I do certain things to it or if I use certain products and because of all that she is the only one I trust with my hair.

    Madelyn REALLY killed it on my wedding day. She was so efficient and SO sweet. She gave every girl exactly what they wanted, even when some of them changed their minds after she was done! She did exactly what I asked for and it held up ALL night, even in the crazy temecula heat. I couldn't have asked for a better hair stylist. I'll update with photos once they come in from my photographer! Thanks Madelyn!!!! **i also used Tawnie for my makeup, who Madelyn often works with. Also amazing.

    Kristin S.

    Madelyn did my hair for my wedding and she was amazing!! She was on time the morning of my wedding and she was super efficient getting 6 girls hair done in 4 hours. She did an AMAZING job on all of us and she is so fun! Definitely recommend her and her partner Tawnie that does makeup.

    W A R N I N G Do NOT go here for Habit hand tied extensions!!! I was robbed! Madelyn did a HORRIBLE job! I went in here after following on Instagram the real Habit Hair salon Instagram and one of the main hairstylists there talking about Madelyn and how she lived in Temecula which is local for me opposed to me driving to Arizona to the real Habit salon to get my hair done. ((Which I regret not going there now)) I saw she was local so went in for a consultation told her what I wanted and showed her real photos of what I wanted. I wanted that super thick can barely put your hand around luxurious hair that I had always dreamed of. She assured me she could do it. So I threw down over $1500 to make my dream hair come to life. When she was done it wasn't the color at all I had wanted it didn't have any dimension like I asked for - it was SO THIN and the hair extension quality felt like cheap Barbie hair! I have had extensions in my hair for 10+ years so I know my stuff and what quality should look and feel like. The extensions were THINNER than my REAL hair - it didn't blend At ALL! She told me that after a few washes my hair color would lighten and basically all the highlights and dimension that i had gone in their asking for - would magically appear after I washed my hair ya - NO! It doesn't work like that it didn't happen. I messaged her asking her to add in some color and to let her know how thin and horrible the extensions were. She didn't care at all and said sorry no refunds. WOW! Horrible customer service! Never in my life have I ever paid that much for hair extensions, and so I was thinking the quality and work would be the most amazing I had ever had, right!!?? NOPE! The worst! I was robbed by her. My head was throbbing and pounding I could hear my heartbeat in my head Bc the little metal bracket thing she put in my head to hold the wefts were SO tight! I had to go to my normal hairdresser 3 days later to REMOVE them ALL- I now have 4 bald spots on my head where those metal clasps were! They were only in my head for 3 days! I can't imagine how much worse it would have been had they stayed in longer! She was not willing to help me out in anyway with the color OR adding in more hair to my super THIN extensions they looked horrible! She told me the only thing she would do was help me STYLE my hair to make it APPEAR thicker ummmm no I don't want it to appear thicker I want it to BE thicker like what I paid you for!!!! I am so disgusted that someone could conduct business like this it truly makes me sick! Do not ever go here!
