Stephane is one of a kind. I love being his client! He combines intuition, and masterful technique. These days I swim every day in the ocean. I let my hair air dry, and it still looks fantastic. How many cuts can achieve that? Amazing
My first tint with Stephane and I am extremely satisfied. He managed to gloss over my damaged hair with the right products. He has deep insight and understanding of hair, colour, and its affects and gave me some valuable suggestions. I am very happy with my hair; will be back!
So happy with my highlights, and really think Stephane is just the best! He is so responsive, caring, attendant to all the details, and I just cannot imagine a better service!

My hair and I couldn’t be in better hands!!! Thank you soooo much, Diane!!!
Wow!! Completely revitalized my hair. I am trying to go grey gracefully and the highlights I had in my hair looked almost yellow. The chemicals made my hair so frizzy, dry and just gross. Diane selected the colour and gloss and I feel like I did in my twenties with healthy, gorgeous hair!!
