How it works
One front door, eight booking pages.
Each card above says what they do. Not sure? Call or text the shop and we will point you to a chair.
Every booking page is for one stylist, with their services, hours and prices.
Check in at the front. Your stylist meets you at their station.
Each stylist takes their own payment and tips, and the shop adds no service charge.
Whose rule is it?
Every stylist here runs their own business. That is why two chairs can have different prices, hours and deposits under one roof.

From clients
“I had no idea who to book, so I called the shop. Ten minutes later I had a time with Fidelia and a plan for my gray.”
“Thurman asked how I wear my hair before he touched it. I wish every chair started that way.”
“Booked a trial with Ikran for my sister's wedding, and the morning ran on the timeline she wrote.”
