"I’ve been a hairdresser for three years now, and I absolutely love what I do—there’s something so rewarding about helping people feel their best. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, which still feels kind of surreal in the best way. When I’m not at the salon, I’m usually at home with my three totally chaotic but lovable cats: Nugget, Dumpling, and Muffin. They definitely keep life interesting (and furry)."

"Got my hair cut with Piper and she did AMAZING. I just got a layered cut and she did an incredible job of making sure I got exactly what I wanted. She creates an environment where you don’t have to be afraid to give her your honest opinion. She’s a miracle worker and I will absolutely be going back!" - Madison

When I’m not behind the chair, I’m usually hanging out with my friends, my dog river or just hanging out at home. Most of my free time is spent at the river kayaking or fishing. Come see me for your next hair transformation. I can’t wait to have you in my chair!"
​
​
"I LOVE this Salon! I have lived in Springfield for 19 years and have never found someone I truly love to do my hair. A couple weeks ago I went to Karma for a cut by Makinah... WOW, so happy. She was so inviting and friendly and did a great job! I actually took my youngest daughter there today for a trim. She is 4 and doesn't do well in a salon chair but Makinah did a great job and was patient with her. We will be back. Thanks Makinah!" - Alicia
