Specializing in Curly Hair, Extensions & Color in Reno
Welcome to Honey & Mane
I’m Valerie, a stylist who believes your hair should feel as good as it looks, every day. I specialize in creating beautiful, lasting styles for naturally curly hair, with a focus on healthy results and realistic upkeep. Hair is personal, and I’m here to help you love yours more than ever.
Why is finding a curly specialist so important?
Because curly hair isn’t like other hair types and every curl pattern is as unique as a fingerprint. Whether it’s natural curls or curly extensions, you deserve someone who truly gets it and can support you on your curly journey.
I’m here to help you love your hair every day, by showing you what products to use, how to apply them, and when to switch things up.
And let’s be real: getting a real curly haircut or properly matched curly extensions? Total game-changer.
Color for the everyday woman:
If you’re after natural-looking color that feels lived-in and low-maintenance, not something that keeps you chained to the salon then you’re in the right place, Girl!
Blended, seamless color techniques? They make my heart skip a beat.
