Deanna was AMAZING! I hadn't cut/trimmed my hair in 5 years. I knew I wanted to rid of all the damage and started looking for a curl specialist. I found plenty, but many unreasonably overpriced. Even worse, they are booked up 6 to 12 months in advance! I took another go at searching and thats when I found Deanna. I'm so thankful that I found her! Her prices are fair for both her and the client. She is vastly knowledgeable when it comes to curls. And what a peach she is to be around! I've been natural for almost 10 years now, and I thought I had my hair figured out. I was pleasantly surprised to learn so much from Deanna. She walked me thru every step of styling and even offered to style with a product that I already use There was ZERO pressure to buy her products. In turn, that made me happy to purchase product with her. The fact that Deanna has a "compassion menu" and is FULLY inclusive is what really drew me to her. How nice for anybody to feel welcome in her chair at any time! I have my forever fairy curl mother now, and I suggest you support her too! read more

Best service I've ever had on my curly hair, Deanna has alot of knowledge about hair, especially curly hair.

I'm going back for a trim and for color. I'm very picky with who I decide to do service on my hair or any other services period and I can honestly say I trust her 100% with my hair. read more

Initially coming in I was super nervous about getting a trim because l've had a few bad experiences but after sitting in her chair for 5 minutes I knew I made the right choice. I felt at ease once Deanna started to talk. She is very knowledgeable about curly hair. She took her time explaining everything about my curls, which products I should use and and how to care for them. I loved the cut because she was able to keep my shape and retain my length as other stylists have done the opposite. Once styled, I was even happier. My curls weren't bogged down with products but felt light, airy, and moisturized. read more

Deanna was highly recommended to me from a curl friend and I was tired of traveling all the way to the city from Brooklyn just to get a trim. I went in for a shape up which meant just the ends and bangs. I had previously gotten Devacuts in the past so my hair had some grown out layers. Deanna's vibe and energy was refreshing and I was also her first appointment that day. She listened, took her time and did a spectacular job on my hair! She even gave styling tips for more volume; additionally her salon was clean and smelled lovely! I found my permanent stylist! Do not hesitate to go here my BK curlies. read more

Deanna is amazing!! Prior to my appointment she had me gather photos of my hair and photos of my hair goals. I had the expectation that my haircut was not going to be exactly like my hair goals but Deanna did not disappoint! She really listened and provided constructive feedback while guiding me through the curly cut. What really made the whole experience was her instruction on how to achieve the "look" at home. She is a well of knowledge regarding products and techniques (Which is a HUGE plus for someone who is beginner in curl care). I will be recommending Deanna to all my friends and Family. read more

Deanna is awesome! I started getting Devacuts for my hair a few years ago and my hair never quite grew back as much as I'd like. I heard great things about Deanna, and figured I would try going to her. Once I went to Deanna a few months ago, I quickly started seeing changes in how my hair grew and now I only want to go to her! I live in NY though, so I have to wait for her, but it is worth it. She is friendly, and provides quality service and great tips for my curly hair. I cannot wait for my next hair cut with Deanna read more

I had my first visit with Deanna and it was a great experience. I'm the only person in my family with naturally curly hair so I never learned how to properly care for and style my curls. For over 30 years, I straightened my hair, but after moving to Florida, I decided it was time to embrace my curls. Deanna was very knowledgeable. I learned so many new tips and techniques. Deanna made my curls look fantastic and I feel much more confident with my styling abilities. If you have curly hair, I highly recommend Deanna. read more

The Curl Doula is a god sent. She was very helpful with helping me understand my curls. I was kind of just fumbling around before now I actually know what I'm talking about. Gives an amazing cut and actually explains why!!! Some times some stylus just do and you walk away with a bad hair cut. Deanna listens and actually give you the truth about what your hair can actually do. Sometimes what you saw on Pintrest isn't a reality and that's okay. You'll still leave a session with The Curl Doula feeling flawless! read more

Let me start off by saying that this has been the best hair experience I've ever had. I have struggled with finding a hairstylist that fit me and actually knew and cared about curly hair. If youre struggling to find someone you can trust with your curlies, she's the one. She made me feel at ease and never pressured me into making any decisions. She makes sure that you know whats going on every step of the way and as someone with a deep distrust of other people touching my hair, I really appreciated it. read more

My 11 year old daughter had her first appointment with Deanna today and she was amazing from start to finish. She was so sweet, patient and talented - a total game changer for me and my daughter!! My daughter's hair is extremely curly and we've never really known how to care for it. I can honestly say meeting with Deanna was eye opening and helped us both understand how to care for her hair. My daughter left the appointment loving her curls and excited to go back in a few months. Highly recommend! read more
