I came in last Wednesday for a full head of foils, hoping to go from dark brunette to a lighter blonde.

Andrew took very good care of me and rescued my hair. My hair was very washed out and dull. He added both colour and highlights - essentially making it look very natural, refreshed, and glowing. Thank you Andrew and Luxe 😊

What a lovely experience I had today at this wonderful salon, I was welcomed very warmly by staff, they took me to a chair and got me a drink. Then I was introduced to the professional staff member who was doing my hair, they asked me how I managed by hair and what my expectations were. After listening to me intently they explained what Nanoplasty was and were very transparent with the outcome an…
