    My hair after Caitlin worked her magic!
    Veronica B.

    Caitlin is absolutely fantastic. Her highlights for my blonde hair always look so natural, and her cuts always make my hair look bouncy and healthy. She even was able to fix a horrible haircut that I got at another salon when I first came to her, and I have stayed with her ever since. She is the consummate professional and will work with you to make your hair look its best. Olivia is also amazing and does my mom's hair. My mom was so nervous about getting her hair done because it can be a bit difficult to work with, but Olivia put her at ease and made my mom's hair look awesome. She does a great job with brunettes. In regards to the studio, it is adorable and the prices are very reasonable. There is ample parking and even free valet throughout the week. What a great spot!

    Caitlin is my go to hair stylist! I have been going to her for years now as I have very thick coarse frizzy curly hair and have a hard time finding stylists who can manage it like she can. Caitlin was able to give me very beautiful natural light brown/blonde highlights which can be very difficult with dark brown hair. And when I decided to get rid of the highlights she helped me phase them out. She is very talented and knowledgable when it comes to picking out colors. I can always count on her to give me the perfect haircut, and I always leave the Hair Habit feeling lighter and more polished. +2 beautiful haircuts +2 skilled colorists +1 clean, relaxing atmosphere

    Olivia seriously ROCKS!! Amazing cut and color every time! She listens to my detailed requests and always does a great job!! She even cuts my extensions for me. Thank you Olivia!! You are the BEST!!! Thank you again!! Another amazing color!

    I am a little shy and so always dread my first time in a new salon, but Olivia made me feel very comfortable.

I wanted the ombré bayalage but was worried that the black was on too thick and for too long. Lynn wasn't sure either but we tested my hair and it was strong enough to withhold the chemicals, she didn't want to ruin my hair. I really appreciated that since most hair stylists would fry your hair and take your money and not care. Lynn told me I have thick and beautiful hair, so she didn't want to ruin it with chemicals if my hair wasn't strong enough to manage it. Hours later, my hair came out perfectly the caramel colors I wanted and the ombré was perfect. I'm thrilled with the results and I'll be back for Lynn to help me manage this hair.

From the moment I walked in the door, I felt welcomed and at ease. John took the time to listen to my hair concerns and preferences and offered expert recommendations. The haircut I received was top-notch and exactly what I wanted. The salon offers haircuts, styling, expert hair coloring, permanents, shampoo, blow dry and other services. I was also impressed with the cleanliness and safety measures in place at Imagine Hair Design. The salon is clean and the team takes every precaution to ensure the health and safety of their clients. Overall, I highly recommend Imagine Hair Design and their talented team of associates . They truly go above and beyond to deliver exceptional results and a memorable salon experience.

    This is my first ever review!…read more I recently moved to the area and found Parlour on Google. At 7 weeks postpartum, I wanted a hair refresh and my cut was amazing by Sabrina. A few months later, my baby started grabbing my long hair, so I tried cutting it myself--disaster! I came in again 3 months PP for a cut with Sabrina, but I wasn't happy with it. I had to rush home and couldn't explain what felt off, so I called the same day to schedule adjustments. Two days later, I came in thinking she was just going to cut my hair dry buSabrina gave me a full service (wash, cut, blow dry, style) and nailed the look I wanted. She even waived the cost for the redo! I was shocked and grateful--being 3 months postpartum, I didn't feel my best, and I left the salon loving my hair. Sabrina is the sweetest, most understanding stylist, and I felt completely comfortable giving honest feedback. 10/10 recommend!

    Beware of price gouge rip off by stylist Wendy Fata! The Garage salon has no website to see prices…read more When I called for a roots touch up appointment I was told Wendy had availability. Since she wasn't in at the time, so I asked Janea the owner what Wendy charges. She said she "didn't know." Why would she claim not to know? They work there together, so I'm not buying it! I went for the appointment figuring the cost would be the typical $60 to $80 rate. Wendy charged me an outrageous $190 FOR A SIMPLE ROOTS TOUCH UP & BLOW DRY! No haircut involved. As she told me the price she said, "no need to add a gratuity, it's included in the price. SHE JUST ADDED IN A TIP FOR HERSELF WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! Who does that? It's so unprofessional, unethical and scammy! Her cost was already appallingly over the top for a simple roots job! Why does she think she deserves a tip on top of that? I should never have paid that inflated amount. I called Wendy Wendy when I got home to ask if she could give me some credit back for the overcharge. She said she'd consider it and call me back. She never called. I would NEVER have agreed to a $190 roots fee if I was given an honest answer when I called to ask the price. DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY WENDY! Demand to get a price before you make an appointment. Better yet, go somewhere else with reasonable, not ridiculous fees and deceptive "gratuities."

From the…read moremoment you sit in her chair, she is so warm, conversational, and welcoming that you instantly feel comfortable and at home. She really listens, takes her time, and never rushes, making sure every detail is perfect so you always leave feeling more beautiful than when you walked in. Czarina has an incredible talent for taking any inspo picture and turning it into pure magic, whether you're getting a cut, color, or full styling. My hair has never been healthier, and I know a big part of that is the premium products she uses, like Oribe and Balmain, which not only smell luxurious but also leave hair soft, shiny, and nourished. The scent of the products lingers in the best way and makes the whole salon experience feel extra special and high-end. I 10/10 recommend Czarina to anyone looking for a stylist who is skilled, kind, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in the health and beauty of your hair. If you want to feel pampered, heard, and walk out with hair that looks and feels its absolute best, go see Czarina you will not be disappointed!
