My new spot to get my hair done. I recommend and I have been using Lauren. She is excellent. Quality and affordable. She did my hair for a wedding, blow out, and took about 45 minutes I was out! Photo to left is at the end of the night after almost 10 hours of running around and dancing. Right photo is after getting my hair done by Lauren. No difference!
