Color, Loud.

A West Village color lab obsessed with custom formulas, glossed finishes, and the kind of hair that makes a room turn. We do balayage, vivids, platinum and lived-in brunette — but we mostly do you, in volume.

I walked in mousy. I walked out platinum. Theo treats every strand like it's going on a magazine cover.
