An amazing style of art, came in with a visual vision for a Halloween Party! Nanci worked her magic from having a head of thick curly hair to now a smooth straight finish with plaits with the use of plait rings... Couldn’t be happier with the result! Was done effortlessly and in no time at all(thank you so much)🥰

Nanci has been amazing at working with my colour over the past 18 months. Now, after a number of years colouring my hair, I’ve started the journey of blending the grey rather than hiding it. This tricky transition started a couple of months ago and today Nanci subtly added light and tone which looks so natural. The gorgeous blow dry at the end is always a treat.

Thank you once again Nanci 🌸

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I had the most amazing experience with Gabrielle today! From the moment I sat in her chair, she made me feel so comfortable and genuinely cared for. She took her time to listen to what I wanted and gave me such helpful advice on how to improve my hair strength and keep it healthy.
Gabrielle was so kind, gentle, and reassuring throughout the whole appointment, constantly checking that I was okay and happy with everything. My hair feels and looks incredible, and I’m so grateful for the effort and detail she put into it. She even booked me in for my next appointment, which shows how thoughtful and professional she is.
Honestly, she’s a true gem, I left feeling confident, relaxed, and completely pampered. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist who genuinely cares about her clients and their hair. 💛✨
