Shanna has been cutting and coloring my hair for years and does an absolutely amazing job! She also did my hair and makeup recently for my wedding day and it turned out exactly like I wanted. Helm is an amazing salon and cannot recommend more
Shanna has been cutting my hair for a few years now. She understood my wavy curly coarse hair right out of the gate, she listens and remembers information from previous appointments, and she's fun to chat with. At this point I'd be lost without her!
I cannot rave about this place enough!! I had a terrible haircut (crooked with uneven layers) and if you've had one of those, you know the distress it causes. Shanna was incredibly kind to my distress and helped me out despite not having an appointment. She fixed the cut (as much as she could without cutting it shorter), evening the edges giving a more clean line, and helped me find a way to style it so it looks good until it grows out more.
The unbelievable kindness to a gal in haircut distress is appreciated beyond words! But then to fix it so it actually looks good? 10 stars. :-)
