Words from the Chair
★★★★★
“Syd listened to what I wanted and told me honestly what was realistic for my hair history. My copper has never looked so vibrant and healthy — no box dye swatch compares.”
Alyssa M.Red + Copper Specialist
★★★★★
“A completely judgment-free chair! I came in with grown-out box dye wanting an alternative split dye. Syd walked me through every chemical step and preserved my natural wave pattern.”
Morgan R.Vivid Split Dye
★★★★★
“The best dimensional color experience I've had in the 661. She mapped the placement to how I actually wear my hair every day. Ten weeks later and the grow-out is completely seamless.”
