Owner Rhonda Machado gives us the scoop on what makes Hair On Earth unique.
What are your specialties? Innovative cuts, creative ponytails, advanced weaving techniques and hair care.
What of-the-moment looks are your clients clamoring for? Cropped styles that last and glamorous ponytails.
How did you achieve the look below? I used a flat iron, molding wax and sheen spray. I mixed the two products in the palm of my hand, then lightly applied them to individual sections before shaping with a flat iron. I alternated the degree of the flip throughout the hair.
Prices: $30 for a wash and wrap.
