Beauty is Being a Nontoxic Human

Carey has her own private hair studio, and I had a great experience there! I went as a first time client for a haircut after a very long time in between cuts due to COVID-19. Her workspace is cozy and clean. She dutifully followed hand washing protocol, and wore both a mask and face shield. She listened to what I was looking for in a cut, how I typically care for my hair, and took her time to do a great job. The experience did not feel rushed, as it can with a typical salon experience. If you are looking for a more individualized salon experience in general, as well as a someone focused on following health safety measures during this pandemic, I highly recommend Carey. I look forward to seeing her again for hair care!

When I moved to Iowa City in 2003, I was desperate for a curly hair stylist. Thankfully I found Carey in 2005 and the rest is history! Carey has worked to hone in her craft on the care and cutting of curly hair. She is also a gifted colorist, and I love how she knows just where to place highlights to get the best shine on my curls. Her salon is private and luxurious. Carey has a way of welcoming her clients into her space and tending to their needs. Highly recommend if you want a private expert salon experience.

Carey has cut and colored my hair countless times over the last 10 years. I am always, always 1000% satisfied. She continuously greets me warmly, talks with me about what our goal is for the day, meticulously mixes her colors to perfection, and her application and finish is nothing short of art and genius. She is so incredibly talented. I cannot say enough positive things about her space and her as the beautiful human being that she is. If there were 10 stars, she'd get them all.
