Hear from a few of my clients….

  • "I recently had the pleasure of getting my hair cut by Destini, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! Not only did I leave with a wonderful new look, but I also gained so much valuable knowledge about how to care for my hair at home..…It was clear that she really listens to her clients and understands how to give them exactly what they need. I have no doubt that the cultured roots community center was exactly the place I needed to be — I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!"

    - Aliana

  • "Destini is absolutely amazing at her job and cares deeply for her clients! I've never felt as confident in my hair as I do now and that's thanks to Destini. You get so much more than a haircut when you go in to see her - she teaches you and equips you with what you need to care for your hair. She's also just such a good time and so fun to be around! Whether or not you have curly hair, she's your girl!"

    - Mahlet

  • "If I could give her 10 stars out of 5 I would! I am so thankful to find Cultured Roots after 27 years of not having any clue what to do with my curly hair! I always leave Destini's chair with so much new knowledge about how to care and treat my curly hair! But also killer curls that strangers yell from across the street "OH MY GOSH I LOVE YOUR HAIR!"
