I have never seen my hair lift so beautifully before! Desirae is a wizard! I was really nervous about my color correction, but Desirae reassured me and answered all my questions about hair health, blending techniques, and treatment options.

She was extremely meticulous and picked out specific orange strands within EACH foil to achieve a seamless look! I left with my hair feeling healthy and super shinny. This has been the most beautiful creamy blonde I’ve ever been and she was absolutely delightful! She’s truly a gem! Call her ASAP!! 🤗

BONUS: the sink chairs have massagers!
NIZZI thank you for making my hair look great after the butcher job I got from Pinache- Megan crucified me...You made my day. GOOD PEOPLE DO EXIST.
Nizzy was my stylists and we got along so well! I got a blonde balayage, and she did excellent making sure my hair was the right length I liked, same with the color and references I was showing her. I have really thick hair and I felt like I was in the best hands ever! She knew what she was doing and in the end we were both extremely happy with the results! I will 100% be going back for my next hair appointment and treatments.
Excellent service, very happy with my cut, the massage and the company, just love it
Desirae is my queen!! I’ve been with her since before she moved here to the Orange Salon, and she slays my hair every time.
The atmosphere of this salon is so nice and so are the people. They take your coats and umbrellas, and help cover up your hair when it’s raining lol
Desirae is absolutely amazing! She is always able to execute what I’m looking for to perfection. She is so friendly and welcoming, making you comfortable the minute you step into the salon. I am always so excited to get my hair done by her. She always listens to what I want, gives great advice, and gives me the best hair I could ask for. I honestly cannot say enough about her. She is the only one I trust to do my hair. I highly recommend!
Absolutely great experience every time. My stylist Nizzy can take your exact vision and give it to you and can somehow make it better. Will always go back to Nizzy, I have never left her chair without the biggest smile on my face.
This salon is amazing and well-kept!
I love the attention and detail within Desirae’s work! Not only does she have a vast range of services that she provides, she also is great at communicating with her clients and their needs. Every time I visit, I always appreciate the time and dedication she puts into her work!
I cannot recommend Desirae enough!! Coming from someone who has a lot of hair that is thick she always exceeds my expectations when it comes to styling my hair! I have naturally curly hair and I’ve left salons with a lot of frizz on my roots after paying for a blowout but Desirae knows exactly what she’s doing! My hair is always sleek from root to tip and my blowouts with her last 2 weeks which is so hard to come by from a thick curly headed girl. Apart from her work she also always makes me feel so welcomed! She easily felt like my bff just after our first appointment. She has the best energy, great chats, and always makes sure I’m happy with the results before leaving. I have been following Desirae on her endeavors through each salon so I truly cannot recommend her enough to others. Orange salon you are lucky to have her!
I was recommended to Desirae by a friend, and I’m so glad I finally booked my appointment at Orange Salon! This was my first time seeing her, and from the moment I walked in, I felt so welcomed. Everyone was so friendly and professional, which made the experience even better.

My goal was to go more blonde, which can honestly be nerve-wracking when you’re switching stylists — especially with blondes. But Desirae really listened to what I wanted, explained everything, and absolutely nailed it. She did exactly what I asked for and the end result was even better than I expected.

She is so talented, personable, and easy to talk to, which makes the whole appointment something to look forward to. Highly, highly recommend Desirae to anyone looking for an amazing stylist!
Desirae is amazing!! I went to her for the first time last month after getting a full foil done somewhere else that didn’t turn out how I wanted. As soon as I reached out to her, she was super understanding and immediately made me feel better about the situation. When I came in for my apt, she was super welcoming and took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted. My hair ended up turning out even better than the inspo pics I showed her. She genuinely could not have done a better job with my hair. I’m so incredibly happy I found Desirae. She is extremely talented, and I truly couldn’t recommend her more 🤍🤍🤍
I’ve known Desirae for a long time, and she is truly such an amazing hairstylist — she really does it all! I went in for a bigg chop, and she made me feel so seen, comfortable, and beautiful throughout the entire process. She listened to exactly what I wanted, gave great advice, and absolutely nailed the final look. I walked out feeling confident and loving my hair. I adore her and her work — I can’t recommend her enough!
when I walked in, everyone was so welcoming and so nice When I expressed what I wanted for my hair, I got a hairstylist named Desiree. once the appointment came, She showed me pictures of her clients of what I would want and I should and I showed her inspo and she did exactly what I wanted and did an excellent job.
I had such an amazing experience getting my hair done by Desirae! Not only is she incredibly talented but she's also one of the sweetest people. I absolutely loved my new hair, and I can't recommend her enough. If you're looking for a stylist who is both professional and kind, Desirae is your girl!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Desirae. I have avoided getting my hair professionally done for a long time because of past bad experiences but from the moment I sat in her chair I immediately felt comfortable. She is so kind, professional, and she takes the time to listen to what you want and what you’ve disliked about your past experiences with other stylists. If you’re nervous about getting your hair done or have had bad experiences in the past I 100% recommend Desirae!
Desirae is truly the best hairstylist I have ever been to, and let me tell ya, I’ve been to A LOT!! She really listened to me thoroughly and looked at all the pics I showed her and I was so beyond happy with the results. She is the sweetest soul and really gives you everything you want!!
