Annie is super-cool. She can do all kinds of things really well. She're really good at Japanese Hair Straightening/Thermal Reconditioning (has a ton of experience, uses a great product, etc.) She also is kind of an artist so she's awesome with cuts, hair extentions, telling you which products to use for your hair, etc. She also works with all kinds o' locks like ethnic hair. I outta know. I had a hard time finding her. Anyway, you'll like her.

If you don't want to fall prey to those "permanent straighteners" who claim to know what they're doing and then leave you with clump-fuls of hair at each shampoo and frizzy dry hair: GO TO ANNIE! She will use the best products (Liscio), use effective techniques (whe wasn't satisfied with the result of my first treatment...so she did it all again.) It was beautiful and remained that way. maintenance free, until another stylist in L.A. fried it. My advice is "go for it". Annie is committed and confident. She takes before and after shots which are a hoot. I am very grateful to her. She has over 6 years experience in Japanese Hair Straightening and over 12 years in salon work. She works with all kinds of hair and uses great, deep moisturizers to leave your hair in better condition than before straightening (at least, mine is in better condition.) All I can say is, go to Annie. She's THE best!
