I’m Jen
My goal is to give everyone the ability to work with their unique head of hair while finding a routine that fits within their lifestyle.
My name is Jen, and I am passionate about showing clients how easy their hair can truly be. I want you to love and enjoy the hair you already have instead of trying (or struggling) to make it act like someone else’s. I can help you unlock your hairs potential through an informative, lighthearted salon experience where you will be met with non judgment, curiosity, and the education needed to succeed in your hair goals at home. My aim is to use all of the knowledge I have harnessed over two decades to give each client a one of a kind, personalized experience that caters to their own individual hair and styling needs. Whether you want to demystify your curls, nurture your scalps health, or make a big change, I am confident in my ability to guide you through it.
I am a Certified Hair Loss Practitioner with a robust background in scalp health, and have dedicated the last 20 years of my career to the cutting, styling, and care of curly hair. Some of my areas of high-interest behind the chair are holistic scalp + hair health, curly hair 101 for newbies, plant based products, and non medical solutions for hair loss. I also love to talk about the wild world of trending styling techniques on TikTok, and how to avoid 15 step hair routines.
I am an avid collector of odd facts and (not really) useless knowledge, and you are bound to be on the receiving end of something you never knew you didn’t know. I really relish the nuggets of wisdom that I pick up randomly from each client, and I love to disperse them to others in a sort of information river.
When I’m not behind the chair, I’m a Northeast living, semi-crunchy parent to one human child, and two cat children. I love 90’s sci-fi rom-drams like Twin Peaks and the X-files, bike rides with the family, making ridiculously large messes in my kitchen, and speed dating hobbies.
I appreciate you taking the time to get to know me, and I look forward to getting to meet you.

Haircut Services
-
$175, 90-180 minutes in length based on texture and pattern of hair.
First dates are awkward, but what about first haircuts? Thats like a first date with your hair on the line! First time appointments and big haircut changes can bring stress and anxiety, especially for curly clients. This appointment gives us more time to thoroughly get to know each other and what you want out of your hair, as well as extra time to walk through styling and aftercare to make sure you’re set for success. Not only do we get to spend more tine with your hair, but I also get to treat you to an express hair detox and moisture treatment along with a steamed aromatherapy facial towel, and scalp massage.

$125, 60-120 minutes in length based on pattern and texture of hair.
If you’ve seen me for a haircut before, we get to enter the maintenance phase of our hair-relationship :)
This appointment gives us a chance to fine tune your current haircut and styling routine, working out any kinks or hiccups you may be having. Because I believe every full haircut appointment needs some R&R, you’ll get the deep cleansing shampoo session you love, plus a steamed aromatherapy towel and scalp massage.
*If you’re craving a big change in your length or style (long to short, etc), I would love for you to book another new client appointment so that we ease into the change without feeling rushed.

Price varies based on time needed. $30-$90
Are you a current maintenance client who needs a quick pick me up? If you are loving your current length/style, but just need something to take the edge off, or need to squeeze me into your active life, these options are for you!
No wash, no style, just a nice refresh on the run for your current haircut. Please note, I need you to come with freshly washed and styled hair so that I can effortlessly trim the shape. *If you don’t recall me ever cutting your hair dry, this is not the time to try it out ;)
-Express Mini $30- Perfect for liberating your eyes from your bangs, or if you have those three curls that always droop midway between cuts, but you’re not brave enough to cut them yourself. - 15 minutes
-Express Partial $60- Great for short cuts that need the sides taken in, or those in the “grow it out” phase who need their face framing and bangs bouncing up again. Think of this as a half haircut, also formerly known as the Fade Refresh- 30 minutes
-Express Full $90- Everything you’ve ever wanted from your haircut, except for the wash and style. No hair left unturned, we’ll cut the length, layers, and the bangs (if you have them.) This is formerly known as a “Curly Cut to Go” - 45 minutes
Scalp Spa Services
Available on Mondays only at Pink Grapefruit

$275, 120 minutes, does not include blow dry or time for extra length.
Is your scalp getting you down? Are you afraid you're losing more hair than normal? Have you got an itch that you need to safely scratch? The Renew & Recharge Scalp Facial has everything you want from the regular Scalp Facial, plus deeper microscope analysis, extra time to treat areas of concern, and a full wrap up with target treatment plan, and recommended tools.
It's too dreamy for words, but it does involve a little pre-appointment leg work via consultation form.
-
90 minutes. 215$, does not include blow dry or time for extra length.
You know how getting your hair washed is the best part? What if I told you that you could have me wash your hair for over an hour, but better? This service is everything but the kitchen sink, at the shampoo sink. We'll look at your scalp under a microscope and then I'll proceed to cleanse, scrub, detox, treat, and hydrate your scalp and your hair- all while you're resting in a cozy cocoon, listening to ambient sounds, breathing in aromatherapy and micro steam.

60 minutes, $145, does not include blow dry or time for extra length.
Do you love the post-scalp facial feeling? Do you crave them on a regular basis? Perfect! This mini facial is great when you need to see me frequently to keep symptoms at bay, and contains "just the essentials" to help prolong the results. We'll touch base and take a peek at your progress under the microscope before an ultrasonic exfoliating cleanse, followed with a custom herbal mask, and finished with an ultra hydrating scalp massage.
Color Services
-
No one wants sticker shock when they get their hair colored, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed when you’re given bowl fees, bond builders, and other upgrades to choose from. I’ll keep it simple so that you can sit back and relax. A flat rate per hour, based on how much hair you have, and how hard I have to physically work to deliver the color you want. No add ons, no gratuity, no problem.
Cost: $100 per hour, which covers my tools and labor, featuring premium ammonia free color, bond builders, treatment masks, and more.

The length of your hair will dictate how much time your service will take on average, and is used to calculate the starting price. For the most accurate quote, please see me for a complimentary consultation.
Hair Length Categories:
Short Hair: Hair that touches your jaw/chin when stretched out, before your haircut
Medium Hair: Hair that reaches your collarbone when stretched out, before your haircut
Long Hair: Hair that touches your armpit when stretched out, before your haircut
Extra Long Hair: Hair that reaches the inner elbow when stretched out, before your haircut
Hair Density: If your hair thickness surpasses the ability of a standard elastic to wrap around three times, you can expect another 30-60 minutes of time based on goals. Please let me know when booking if you feel your hair is thicker than average.
Please note, if you’re thinking about changing up your haircut you should cut it a week or two before your color so that you save money on your booking time, and so that you don’t accidentally have me cut your highlights off. ;)
-
Clients who have never had their hair colored by me should come in for a complimentary consultation before booking their color service to ensure i’m a good fit for their needs.
Color services are broken down onto two distinct categories:
All Over Color:
A full head application of color to cover grey, match, or deepen your current shade, plus simple blow-dry or diffuse. This service does not include bleaching or highlighting.
Dimensional Highlighting:
This service involves adding different shades of color to your hair using foil or balayage techniques, customized to your current haircut and style. Includes gloss/toner, simple blow dry or diffuse.

I want you to live your low-maintenance color dreams and only get a full head of highlights once a year, but I know nothing lasts forever-especially the highlights around your face when you pull your hair back. Let me help you feel cuter, longer, by offering a mini color session that you can add on to your next maintenance (not express) cut.
Options:
Toning/Glossing Add-on 50$+
When you love the lived-in look of roots, but your highlights feel drab, brassy, or dull.
Face Frame and Gloss Add-on $150
For when you pull your hair back and it feels like your ponytail doesn’t match the rest of your hair anymore. I’ll add a row of highlights around your hairline, and scatter a few over your part to soften the transition.
