Thank you Thayse for a wonderful cut and color!! I was so pleased with how my first time at the salon started off right away. She sat with me and really listened to me about my hair concerns and what I was looking for. And what a treat it was to be pampered with organic shampoos, conditioners and coloring products. There is real attention to detail and that was very important to me. I was loyal to my previous hair stylist for over 8 years in Los Angeles and I am so happy to have found my new go to stylist here in Santa Cruz!

Thayse is one of a kind when it comes to hair styling. She is able to show you the natural beauty your hair has to offer. After a styling by Thayse you will not only have the hair you want, but it wont take an army to get you ready in the morning!
