"I have spent a great amount of time mastering all of the popular hairstyling techniques from many eras, and I incorporate them into today's latest styles and trends. I am inspired and love hair styles from all the eras, but especially the roaring 20s and the pin-up girls of the 50s." - Dana

"I am a very good conversationalist and I love to get to know my clients and create the perfect look that best suits their overall appearance and lifestyle." - Dana
