If I could leave 10 stars I would!! I just had my third appointment with her and I can’t rave enough about her services. She’s so kind and professional, and always had me feeling like a million bucks once I’m out of her chair.
Having been looking for a new stylist to go to after no longer going to my previous one of the last ten years, I wish I had found her sooner. The quality of her work is unmatched and she truly offers you a great experience of helping you look and feel like your best!

Yaya took me as a last min client after another stylist bailed on me the day before my appointment! She was communicative & asked me questions about what I wanted. I wasn’t too familiar with other braid sizes but after showing her pictures she helped me identify large braids I wanted. They looked so neat and cute at the end!! She was kind, professional & we had great conversations. Its been a struggle to find a braider but I def will be coming back. Don’t sleep on Yaya!!
