MEET KIM
I appreciated the attention to detail at my first cut at this salon, from the observation of tilt of my head, where I parted my hair, how my hair dried naturally, where my hair was more wavy at the bottom versus the top, etc. Wow! Appreciated the care and attention that Kim showed, and love my new haircut!
