Verified client testimonials from the chair.
“I absolutely love going to Alpha Hair Design. I would fly or drive for miles and miles to come here! The work they do and talent they have is incredible. They have so much knowledge, dedication and passion for what they do. They are always staying on top of trends, learning and teaching all the knowledge they've learned throughout the years in their business. Not only is this a great place to get your hair done, you will always come out of there with exactly what you asked for and they make you feel at home. ”
“Jesse and Yolanda keep up to date with all the latest coloring trends and styles. From the time they take, you know it is an art. I always walk out feeling better than I came in. Even if you love where your hair gets done now, I still think it is worth giving them a try. Great value all around. Thank you both for all the compliments I get from the work you do.”
“It was in my bucket list to have a professional haircut and a colorist consultation. While visiting Chicago, I had the opportunity for a haircut by Jesse and some highlights by Yolanda. I absolutely love it..esp. since my hair is wavy/curly and not many hairdressers know what to do with it. I also had gone only to cover my greys, but having Yolanda and her experience as a colorist put me at ease to be submissive and let her do her magic on my hair. I just love love love my hair , thank you both!! Now i will return to Texas with a great cut and awesome color/highlights..”
