Featured Stylist in Cornelius, NC
Meet Beverly, a passionate hairstylist born and raised in Kittery, Maine. From a young age, I was fascinated with hairstyling, often experimenting on my sister's hair, which led me to pursue a professional career in this vibrant field. I graduated from the prestigious School of Hair Design in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in 1989, and I've been honing my craft for over 35 years.
My expertise spans a wide range of services, catering to men, women, and children. I am skilled in the latest haircutting techniques and am a proficient colorist, specializing in essential root touch-ups, as well as intricate lowlights and highlights. Each week, I offer shampoo, blow-dry, and curling iron or roller sets, ensuring each client leaves looking their best.
For those looking to tame unruly hair, I provide keratin treatments that significantly reduce frizz by up to 95% for as long as three months. Additionally, I have a special focus on wig customization, offering trimming, thinning, and styling to perfectly match your facial features.
I'm outgoing and eager to meet new clients and help them achieve their desired looks. Let’s create something beautiful together!
