Easy Everyday Style

Men like GinaCurl too!

When it comes to maintaining their good looks, men tend to have two major requirements. They need something easy! They refuse to spend too much time on their hair and, for a day to day look, they don't want it to appear like they made a big fuss. Equally as important, they want their hair to look natural. We have male clients who come to us for a GinaCurl treatment, usually a Curl Reformer or a Thermal Straightening, because they want more control. They want to fix a stubborn tuft or give hair a new foundation. And for those that are more expressive, men like how a GinaCurl treatment allows them to pull off a more graphic and creative haircut.

Hair's Talent is the ultimate salon for those of us with thick, curly, unmanageable hair. I walked in with a disaster on my head and walked out with a sleek, workable and very attractive style. Wow!
Salon Review
Jasmine C
I have pretty much no ability to do my own hair so most of my life I have had some else do it for me. In the past my experiences with hair salons were not good. I always ended up with over processed hair that was not healthy and eventually broke off. Going to Hair's Talent has changed my mind forever about hair salons and I will be going there for all of my future hair care needs. I would advise anyone in the same boat to do the same, trust me when I say it's worth the drive!
