Reviews

What clients say

★★★★★

“Shawn is amazing! He really took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and somehow made my hair look even better than I imagined. The color came out so natural, blended, and dimensional. I've gotten so many compliments already. Definitely found my new colorist!”

Rebecca T.
★★★★★

“I came to Shawn after having a color experience somewhere else that left my hair uneven and not at all what I wanted. He completely transformed it! He was so knowledgeable about what would work with my hair and skin tone, and the final color is absolutely beautiful. My hair looks healthier, shinier, and so much more expensive.”

Lelia S.
★★★★★

“Shawn seriously knows color. I wanted to go lighter without my hair looking brassy or overprocessed, and he nailed it. My highlights are bright, perfectly blended, and still look really natural. He's also so easy to talk to and makes the whole appointment enjoyable. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my color!”
