New here?
Let's get your hair sorted.
Finding a new stylist means explaining your hair all over again. Rachel is an independent Redken-Certified Colorist in central Phoenix with 17 years behind the chair. Bring a photo from a good hair day and any notes from your last stylist. Start with a $20 consultation for new color work.

Four things that matter when you're starting over.
17 years behind the chair
Rachel has worked independently since 2013. Her Phoenix consultations account for hair history, desert sun, hard water, and the maintenance you want.

$20 consultations
Color and extension consultations are $20. Bring previous formula notes or photos if you have them and use that time to map a realistic first step.
Hair health sets the pace
Previous color, current condition, and the size of the change all affect the plan. A consultation leaves room for a safer multi-visit approach when needed.

Before your first Phoenix appointment.
I just moved to Phoenix from out of state — how do I find a new hair stylist?
Start with a $20 color consultation. Bring photos of your previous color, formula notes if you have them, and a clear description of your current routine. Rachel can assess the starting point in person and recommend the appropriate service. Book online or call (480) 875-6065.
Will my hair color from my old stylist still work in Phoenix?
The formula and home-care plan may need adjustment. Phoenix sun and mineral buildup can affect how color wears, especially on lightened hair. Bring any formula notes or recent photos so Rachel can see what has worked and plan for the local climate.
What should I expect at my first appointment with a new colorist?
New color clients start with a $20, 30-minute consultation. Bring your color history, usual routine, and the result you want. Rachel checks your hair and discusses the service, time, cost, and care before you choose the color appointment.
What does a first appointment with Rachel cost?
A color or extension consultation is $20 for 30 minutes, credited toward the service if you book. Current haircuts start at $50, gloss and root retouch are $90, and custom color is $220 partial or $320 full. Correction starts at $200; the full plan may cost more.
