 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been going to Alicia for years and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair.   Her new salon is beautiful and I always leave feeling wonderful I had a series of facials by Kelly  James  and I am so excited with the results.   The texture of my skin has improved, fine lines are disappearing and my age spots are fading away. If you want to improve your skin,  I  highly recommend a visit to Kelly. I just had to update my review since I saw my dermatologist yesterday and she said my face looks great!  These facials were worth every cent.  Definitely visible improvement in the texture of my skin,  as well as reduction of fine lines and dark spots.  😀

I recently visited for my first chemical peel with Kelly James and it was such a calming and pleasant experience. She understood my skin concerns and explained the entire process and how to care for your skin afterwards. A week after and my skin is looking brighter and feeling smoother. I’m looking forward to booking another facial with her soon.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I called on Tuesday for a consultation and they got me in for Thursday. My birthday was Saturday but, I thought it wasn’t realistic to get it done before then. Danielle not only was so sweet with me being indecisive with what I wanted but she then made availability to fit me in that same day before my birthday!!!!! Although I had been dying my hair every color of the rainbow for years, she did such an incredible job lifting years of old color and getting me back to my natural. Overall, the place was so comfortable and welcoming. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the sweetest stylist and then quickly taken back to get started. Thank you so much to Danielle for giving me such luscious hair to rock for my Bday!!!  (My hair was a reddish copper before but, these pictures don’t serve enough justice to show the SHINE)

Where can I park?

We do not have a parking lot, but there is a lot of street parking available throughout the day, and there is a parking lot across the street that you can also park in.
