We had such a great experience! She came to my house on a Sunday morning to do my daughter’s hair, which was so convenient for our busy schedule. She was punctual, professional, and very kind. The service was quick, but never rushed, she took the time to condition my daughter’s hair, and it came out soft, healthy, and beautiful. My daughter loved her hairstyle, and it lasted all week (honestly, it could have gone another week!). You can tell she is talented and really knows what she’s doing. I appreciate her professionalism and her ability to work efficiently. We already booked her again, highly recommend if you’re looking for someone reliable, friendly, and skilled!

Kaneka did a great job with a quick blow out. She communicated a bunch and showed up on time with a great attitude. I would recommend her!

We had hair done for 6 people for a wedding and were very happy! She was able to create what we wanted for those of us with ideas and was also able to come up with good styles on her own for the girls who didn’t know what they wanted.

Kaneka was quick to reply and quick to get me an appointment. She took everything I had to say about my hair into consideration and walked me through her recommendations. End result was beautiful! 10/10 recommend and will be returning!
