    I loved the attention to detail from Valerie — the way she tailored the haircut perfectly to the shape of my head and face was exceptional. It’s an amazing feeling walking out of the salon looking and feeling this good.

    I can’t recommend Merluza highly enough. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was so friendly and welcoming. Valerie was amazing — she’s incredibly knowledgeable and truly skilled at what she does. It’s the best haircut I’ve ever had! James dried my hair to perfection, and together they made this curly girl very happy.
