Hair services cover cuts for children, teens and adults, blow dries and sets, and updos. Color ranges from subtle dimension to bold shades, through single process color, single process with highlights, highlights and double process. Special processes include Brazilian blow dry, anti-curl treatment, keratin smoothing and color correction. The team includes a curly hair specialist. Hair extensions are provided through Great Lengths, and the salon also sells custom wigs.
Bridal work includes hair and makeup consultations, day-of-wedding hair and makeup in the salon, and out-of-salon hair and makeup, which is priced hourly with a 1.5-hour minimum or by day rate. Bridal events are hosted in a private round suite, where complimentary champagne and strawberries are offered during treatments. Pricing quotes are sent within 48 hours of an inquiry. The salon says its pricing reflects 17 years of work with brides, both local and international.
Waxing of the face, upper body and lower body is done in a private waxing room with an aesthetician, and eyebrow shaping is available with Aida Angjeli. Clients are advised to book in advance. Weekday hours run from 9am to 6pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, with a later close at 7pm on Thursdays.
