That’s how amazing she is!! I completely trust her and literally just come in and say “do whatever you think is best” because I have that much faith in her. Can’t see myself going anywhere else for color! ” — K.G. “Allison - hair goddess, confidant, mindreader, artist. She’s an expert at bringing to life my vague idea about what I want and takes great care in making sure you are comfortable and everyone is on the same page about what to expect. Moreover, she’s a true delight to spend a few hours with in her chair - funny, intelligent, understated but engaging.” — N.B.
