Luxury Hair Extensions

I am a NYC native, born and raised in The Bronx, NY. Since being licensed to create in 2010, I’ve been featured in Vogue Korea, Seventeen magazine, and MTV online.

I’ve managed one of NYC’s biggest hair salons for 5 years and provided business training to multiple hairstylist who are now independent business owners themselves. Growing up, I was so intrigued by how a simple change in hairstyle would bring out instant confidence and gratitude in my friends and family.

Ever since, I’ve been obsessed with transforming every texture into a work of art. Whether you have fine, coarse, or curly hair, I create a custom color for each client, while catering to all their hair care needs. PHD Studio is a NYC based salon specializing in extreme blonding, lived in color, corrective color, balayage and high impact fashion tones. We are obsessed with transforming every texture into a work of art. Come let us paint the hair of your dreams!

The misuse of any product can and will create damage to hair follicles. If your hair is highlighted with a preventative treatment it will protect your hair from any breakage or damage. All of our color services include a bonding or k-18 treatment.

Balayage is a type of hand painted highlight. It is very subtle and usually only used for sunkissed highlights.
