Last week, I saw Vanessa at Hair on Second Avenue, and she gave me five hours of her undivided attention. The end result was a head full of healthy hair with bright, silvery highlights. I knew I was in good hands.
The salon itself is beautiful, woman-owned and operated, decorated in elegant black and white. I’ve found a new happy place!
