The Vessa way

We cut the curl you have, not the one in the photo. Your texture gets shaped, never fought.

Your appointment

Slow, on purpose.

No rushing, no flat iron you didn't ask for. Here is how the chair time goes.

  1. We start dry

    Come in with your hair loose and dry. We look at how it falls, where it shrinks, and what you want from it.

  2. Shaped curl by curl

    We cut each curl where it lives, so the shape holds its balance as it dries and as it grows.

  3. Wash and define

    A slow wash, moisture, and a set that shows off the new shape.

  4. Your routine, written down

    You leave with the products and steps we used, so day three looks like day one.

The work

After dark.
