Walk-ins are welcome for cuts. Color and perms start with a free consultation. Want the bigger picture first?

"Rose is an amazing stylist! I have never received so many compliments on my color and cut." - Jenny P.
A good cut still looks right at week six, not only on the way out the door. That's the one we aim for. We cut women's, men's and kids' hair, and walk-ins are welcome.
Pick the cut you need:
Long, thick or specialty cuts take more time and cost more. We tell you the number before we start.
Color goes wrong in predictable ways. It turns brassy after a month of beach days, regrowth shows at two weeks, or the shade in the mirror isn't the one on the swatch. We start with a consultation so we agree on the color before the brush comes out.
What we color:
Color starts at $64+. Foils and premium blonding are priced in the Blonding Guide on our pricing page.
Balayage is painted on by hand, with more lightening toward the ends and less toward the top, so it grows out softly instead of leaving a stripe at the roots.
What to expect:
Balayage starts at $340+.
The line of regrowth shows up fast. Two weeks after your last color you spot it in the mirror, and by week four it's all you can see. A root touch-up fixes that without coloring your whole head again.
How it works:
Most people come back every four to six weeks. A root touch-up starts at $64+.
Your color looked right in the chair and a little off by the weekend: too warm, too gold, not the cool shade you pictured. A toner or glaze corrects the tone and adds shine. Add it to a color service, or book it on its own.
What it does:
With a color service it's $40+. On its own, $62+.
A perm gives you lasting volume and texture, and less time with a curling iron every morning. We have been perming for women and men since 1985.
What to know:
Long hair and specialty wraps cost more. We will tell you before we start.
In this humidity, frizz is a daily argument you lose. A keratin smoothing treatment calms it, so hair dries smoother and styles faster.
Who does it:
The Keratin Smoothing Treatment starts at $250+.
Want smoother hair without the full treatment? The Keratin Express Blowout is our lower-priced option, and a good place to start if you are curious about keratin.
Good to know:
The Keratin Express Blowout starts at $126+.
Bleach, heat and sun leave hair stretchy and snapping. K18 is a leave-in treatment that works on the broken keratin chains inside the hair instead of just coating it, so the repair stays through your next shampoo.
Two ways to add it:
It is one of the add-ons clients ask for most after color or lightening.
Hard water, pool chlorine and product buildup leave color dull and hair heavy, even right after a wash. A professional detox pulls out the minerals, silicones and residue regular shampoo can't reach.
What most people notice:
It's a smart step before a color service. It isn't on our price list yet, so call 561-684-5757 for the current price.
After pool days and a few color visits, ends feel like straw. A hair mask goes deeper than conditioner. We apply it after a thorough wash and let it sit for fifteen to twenty minutes.
Good times to book one:
Hair feels softer and easier to manage the next morning. Call 561-684-5757 for the current price.
Curly hair gets handled like straight hair in too many salons, and you leave with frizz or a shape that fights you. DeDe, one of our stylists, likes working with natural curly and textured hair.
What she offers:
Call 561-684-5757 for the current price and her open times.
Cuts start at $47 for women, $35 for men and $35 for kids five and under. Color starts at $64, perms at $90 and keratin at $126. The plus sign means long, thick or specialty hair takes more time, and we'll tell you the number before we start. Every price is on our pricing page. See all prices.
Walk-ins are welcome and we do our best to fit you in. If you want a certain day, time or stylist, book ahead. Color, perms and keratin take longer, so those are best booked.
A full foil puts highlights through the whole head. A partial covers the crown, top and sides. A lot of people only want to be lighter around the face with a little on top for definition, and a partial does that for less.
Balayage is painted on by hand, with more lightening toward the ends and less toward the top, so it grows out softly. We set aside more time for it, and we suggest a phone consultation first so the result matches what you picture.
If your hair has several unwanted colors in it, you probably do. Correction is booked only after you talk with one of our stylists by phone or in the salon, so we can see what we're starting with and give you an honest plan.
Yes. We do repair and conditioning treatments in the salon, including K18, hair masks and a professional hair detox, and we sell take-home products for dry hair and scalp concerns. Tell your stylist what you've been through and they'll choose what fits.
Cover it. The American Academy of Dermatology says sun can weaken, dry, fade and break hair, especially after coloring, bleaching or perming, and suggests a wide-brimmed hat outdoors. A toner or glaze can bring back a shade that has faded, and our professional take-home products help color last between visits. Read the AAD tips.
For corrective color and for any perm, yes. A phone or in-person consultation is required first, and it's free. For everything else you can ask for one anytime, which also lets us quote you a more exact price.
