Hey – Just wanted to add my 2 cents. Based on seeing this post (and subsequent comments) I made an appointment to get a choppy pixie cut with Cristina a few days ago. She did an AMAZING job! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great cut – she was super-attentive, very personable…and of course incredibly talented. I will definitely be back to see her again when I need another cute haircut!

Faye, you better watch it…some of the ladies here can attest that I actually do have purple hair! ;) So I can do that too!

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Glad to hear that Cristina didn’t turn your hair purple. Unless you asked for purple hair.

I can vouch for her talents! I got my haircut by Cristina the other day for this fundraiser and I LOVE it! That being said, I have never left from a professional haircut liking how they cut/styled it. Cristina did great and was super sweet and actually listened to what I wanted. This is the way to get an amazing haircut for a steal!

Thanks for posting, Faye! I encourage anyone who wants more info to email me and we can discuss the look you desire! Also, if anyone has any questions about becoming a cosmetology student, I went through the whole scpeal of researching programs, financial aid, etc so I may be able to help you out there as well.
Thanks again, Brokelyn!
