Raul is amazing!!! Of course, as the name implies, he is THE BEST at blonde. He is your go to stylist for anything blonde and makes it look fabulous and perfect the FIRST time. Don't even bother going somewhere else first because of the price. You get what you pay for. Also, he is AMAZING at getting the color SUPER TIGHT to the scalp so your root touch ups last longer and your hair looks better. As far as cutting and styling, he always makes the best recommendation and keeps my ends cleaned up so I don't have stringy hair. Quality, quality, quality. My hair looks amazing thanks to Raul!! :)
