Hear What Some Clients Are Saying...
"I’m a natural medium redhead. All I wanted that day was highlights. When I left the salon I looked like a bleach blonde …….yuck!!! I went back to the salon, because she wanted to fix it, make my hair darker. It was nowhere near my natural color of red. It took forever for the color to fade, and when it did …..it was so dried and fried I couldn’t color it again for two years. I seriously thought about just shaving my head. Never went back to that salon."-- Gwenda T., Client, Crawfordsville, Indiana
