I came to Kristina after my former stylist retired from doing hair. From the moment I came to the salon for a consultation, I knew I found my new stylist! Kristina took the time to listen to my concerns and what I wanted to achieve with my hair. She has taken my hair to a whole new level.
I have become an extension client over the last year. She is truly an artist when it comes to Hand Tied Extensions and hair coloring. She is constantly working on her craft by continuing her education on the newest techniques. She also takes time to research what brands are the very best for your hair’s needs.
From the moment you walk into the Painted Culture Salon, Kristina will greet you with that big beautiful smile and a big hello. While there she will make sure you feel relaxed and comfortable.
When you leave, trust me, you will look and feel amazing.
I found Kristina’s salon through Instagram after being new to the area. She was so warm, welcoming, professional, and kind. She asked a lot of questions, checked in regularly during the process to make sure I was feeling okay, and I walked away from the salon feeling brand new! I highly recommend Kristina. She was seriously so wonderful!
