Case In Point

Our client pictured above was discouraged with her hair after she attempted to bleach lighten.  She decided that cutting her hair off would solve the problem.  After cutting off her hair she was even more miserable when she looked in the mirror.  She immediately called our salon - she was having a hair emergency.  We immediately scheduled a consultation for the same day and blocked off several hours with our extension specialist.  On the phone, she explained her hair emergency, but we were concerned about what we would see when she walked in.
