We specialize in low-maintenance color techniques that keep you looking great between appointments, including shadow roots and lived-in blends.
Haircuts & Styling
Your haircut should work with your hair — not against it. Our stylists tailor every cut to your face shape, texture, and routine, so you leave with a style that fits your everyday life.
Haircut & Styling Services:
- Women’s Haircuts – From long layers to bobs and pixies, we craft cuts that flatter and grow out beautifully
- Men’s Haircuts – Clean fades, textured crops, and classic cuts
- Curly/Textured Haircuts – Dry cutting and shaping for natural curls
- Blowouts – Polished, smooth styles for special occasions or everyday glam
- Updos & Event Hair – Elegant styles for weddings, proms, and photoshoots
Your visit ends with a professional blow-dry and styling finish — so you walk out feeling ready for anything.
Keratin Smoothing Treatments
Frizz doesn’t stand a chance. Our keratin treatments smooth, hydrate, and restore shine while cutting down blow-dry time by up to 50%. Ideal for unruly, curly, or coarse hair, keratin makes hair more manageable and humidity-resistant — all while protecting its natural structure.
Benefits of Keratin Treatments:
- Lasts up to 3–4 months with proper care
- Eliminates frizz and adds shine
- Cuts styling time significantly
- Leaves hair silky, soft, and touchable
- Formaldehyde-free options available
During your consultation, we’ll assess your hair’s condition and recommend the best smoothing formula based on your needs.
Deep Conditioning & Add-On Treatments
Healthy hair starts with moisture, strength, and care. We offer customized conditioning treatments to support color longevity, repair damage, and improve shine.
Popular options include:
- Bond-building repair treatments
- Moisture masks for dry hair
- Scalp balancing detox
- Color-protective glossing treatments
These can be added to any service to boost results and keep your hair in peak condition.

FAQs About Hair Services
How do I know which hair service to book?
Call us at 908-232-1067 and we’ll help you choose based on your hair history and what you want to achieve. First-time color? Damaged hair? We've got you covered.
What is the difference between balayage and highlights?
Balayage is a hand-painted color technique that creates a soft, natural gradient. Highlights are usually done with foils for brighter, more defined sections. Both look beautiful — it depends on the finish you want and how often you plan to maintain it.
Do you offer consultations before color?
Yes, all color services include a detailed consultation. If you’re unsure, you can also schedule a stand-alone consultation to meet your stylist before booking a full appointment.
How long does a color and haircut appointment take?
Plan for 2 to 3 hours, depending on the service complexity. Balayage or full foil appointments may take longer. We’ll give you an estimate when booking.
What should I do before my keratin treatment?
Arrive with clean, product-free hair. Avoid coloring right before keratin, as the treatment may slightly alter fresh color. We’ll guide you based on your hair goals.
Can I combine hair and nail or waxing services?
Yes! Let us know when booking and we’ll coordinate services so your visit is efficient and seamless.
