The Owner, Lesa Marie

I obtained my Cosmetology license in 1996. I knew, from the beginning, I would open my own Beauty Salon. I strive to provide a consistent luxurious experience, from the moment you walk into our doors. As a Hairstylist, I am dedicated to the craft of hair. I specialize in Luxury Hair Extensions and hair care. I am creative so you will love your hair. My skills are in hair straightening, luxury hair extensions  and natural hair care.  Extensions, I use the traditional weaving method, Micro links, K-Tips, clip-ins, tape-in, as well as other methods. I continue educating myself to remain savvy of the current hair trends. 

When receiving service by me, you will do so in my private suite.  You will receive one on one service.  I use top professional quality tools and products.   Your entire experience will be remembered.  I am a professional because, my clients are professionals.

Success is when I see my clients SMILE!
