Andrea does a fantastic job at keeping my red, red! Being a red head by choice, not birth, is very tricky and a whole lot of upkeep. I have had every shade of red there is, done by others. I even turned out magenta once, and the high priced salon not only hurt my hair trying to bleach out their mistake, but no discount either. I have never ever had to worry about it with Andrea. But my fav part? I love the way my hair smells when I leave. =)
