    I cannot say enough good things about this salon. It is a smaller and more intimate environment, and is SUPER clean. The owner and all of the stylists are extremely friendly, and go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable! I see Miranda for extensions, and she is THE BEST!!! She takes her time, making sure that you feel important and heard. She also does everything in her power to make your time at the salon a fun experience. I walked out of the salon with not only an amazing hairstylist, but also a friend😊 Would highly recommend Miranda and Hello, Gorgeous Salon!!
