Services
Women's Haircuts
Our women's haircuts combine Stuart Laurence's signature techniques with personalized styling. Each service includes luxury shampooing, precision cutting tailored to face shape and lifestyle, and professional finishing. Our stylists specialize in creating versatile styles that maintain hair health while achieving modern, wearable looks. All cuts incorporate dimensional styling techniques for optimal movement and texture.
Ouidad Carving
This specialized technique eliminates bulk while enhancing natural curl patterns. Using carving and slicing methods developed by Ouidad, our certified stylists create defined ringlets that frame the face beautifully. The process preserves curl integrity while reducing frizz and improving manageability for all curly hair types.
Keratin Treatments
Our keratin treatments transform frizzy hair into smooth, shiny locks using protein-infused formulas. The process seals hair cuticles to reduce frizz, decrease styling time, and protect against humidity. Treatments last up to five months with proper aftercare, leaving hair silkier and more manageable while maintaining natural movement.
Balayage Highlights
Hand-painted balayage techniques create natural, sun-kissed dimension. Our colorists customize placement and tone to complement skin undertones and existing hair color. The service includes personalized color consultation and maintenance recommendations to preserve vibrancy between appointments.
Style & Finish
Professional styling service for maintaining hair health between cuts. Includes luxury shampooing, targeted conditioning treatments, and styling tailored to hair type. Ideal for preserving color vibrancy and smoothing effects after chemical services while maintaining optimal hair condition.
