    “I have been coming to Smart Hair since they opened over ten years ago! Angela has always done an exceptional job with my hair, which is pretty curly and...increasingly grey. I embraced the grey, so we don't do low lights anymore, but Angela has been cutting and styling to bring out the natural curls! She is warm, knowledgeable, and always receptive to your input.”

They are reliable, and consistent in their experience... if I’m uncertain on what I want there is always helpful guidance. They are all friendly and pleasant to be around. When my schedule doesn’t align with Tanya’s availability, I see Angela, and it’s as if the results do not miss a beat. I could not recommend Tanya and this salon enough!”

    “I am a low maintenance hair person, and they understand this! Every time I've gone they've done a stellar job of covering my grey with my natural hair color, and adding just the right amount of highlight... for someone who hates obvious highlights. They only see me twice a year, but it's a stellar job that I can stretch for six months. Thank you!!”
