    JENNIFER E.

  • “I'm so glad I found Toshia and her excellent service and salon! I feel I was well-advised on the condition of my hair with recommendations and options to get it in better health. I love it when a stylist is great with a shampoo, knows how to cut, is great with styling, and offers a professional and welcoming environment in their salon. Toshia and Savvy are definitely all of the above.

    COLLETTE H.

  • “I love this salon! I had been wearing weaves and decided to wear my natural hair. Toshia took time to understand what exactly I wanted and recommended the Silk Out System. I was very happy with the results! My natural hair was easier to manage while still having my natural hair pattern. Toshia is so sweet and I could tell she is very knowledgeable about hair, the system and she truly wants the best for your hair!”
