curly hair & color artist carleen sanchez

I have had 3 Deva Cuts so far in different cities. Carleen is the expert that my Deva stylist in Santa Fe would go to for advice. So cool to go to the best of the best! I don’t think I’ll ever be the same. 💃🏻 Carleen’s entire team is amazing! I visited for a curl discovery cut and was WOWED at the level of knowledge and service at every turn. Going here you realize it really is more of a SPA experience than hair salon in many ways. There is so much attention to detail it’s clear that you’ve entered another dimension where curls are king! Sharing some of my before and afters. The hydrating treatment worked so well that the “after” looks like wet curls but my hair is actually fully dried in the second pic. Perfect because I had a family photoshoot just minutes afterward. I can’t wait for my next visit. Thank you Carleen!

I recently learned I have swavy hair but was living the life of a straight haired girl. Carleen and her ladies educated me on how to care for and style my waves. Being a little intimidated by the amount of products and tips on the internet, I’m so glad I found Carleen to help me tackle this life long project I’ve taken on. She, and all the ladies there, are the best and so patient with my questions and curly ignorance. I’m excited to go back for my next appointment to show and tell how the process has been going and continue to grow and hone in on what my best routine should be.

OMG! I will never go anywhere else again! Carleen and her whole staff are wonderful! If you have curly hair, you've probably dealt with the horrors of bad cuts and stylists not know how to deal with curls. When I first moved to the area, I went to a few different stylists who claimed they did curly hair, but I couldn't find that right fit. Then I found Carleen and I will never leave! Not only is the entire staff super sweet, but they are so knowledgeable about curly hair. From the moment you walk in the door, they are pampering you with drinks, lotions, hand massages, essential oils, little goodies and gifts...the list goes on and on. But then the actual hair cut - perfect every time! Carleen actually listens to what you want and does it (I know, right?!?). She books out different appointment types for what specifically you are getting done, which is wonderful, so there's no waiting an hour for your appointment. The staff also teach you how to style your hair, customize products for your specific hair type, and pamper you! What more can I say - they are the best and I'd recommend them hands down to anyone with curly hair!! <3
