Outstanding! Outstanding! Outstanding! I wanted to surprise my wife and Khaalida definitely understood the assignment. She went above and beyond. Previously, my wife was told by other stylists that changing her color to a lighter color wasn't possible. Khaalida did it. Plus, she brought an arsenal of hair stuff and my wife felt completely pampered and valued. Thank you!

This is long overdue, but Khalida is absolutely amazing!!!! She is always cheerful and pours life into me. I remember being very emotional when I first sat in her chair. She wanted to make sure I looked and felt good. She is very knowledgeable about hair and is very concerned with the well-being of her clients. She educates me on how to take care of my hair outside of the salon as well as my overall health. She has a diverse base of clients and is interested in each and every one of them. She remembered where I wanted to part my hair after not having parted my hair for quite some time. I also give her creative freedom a lot of times, and she never disappoints giving me the best style that suits my face shape and personality. I also receive so many compliments after Ive visited her salon. I have never had a silk press last longer, almost 3weeks on 4c hair. She is very thorough and makes sure that your hair is well treated and styled and explains how to maintain the style. She is also always more than willing to share product recommendations and makes her own products. I highly recommend her!
