This place is AMAZING BEYOND BELIEF. Kelsey and Krista offer unbeatable prices, they are amazing teachers, extremely friendly and every single time I leave or my kids leave we are always happy with our new looks. Kelsey styled my daughter's hair for her banquet and it was better than the picture I showed her.
