Balayage Specialist
Jordan, also known as Colorbyjord and now a co-owner of L&M, is a Paul Mitchell graduate who specializes in balayage with an interest in healthy hair color. Her approach to hair color is a natural and lived in one, allowing her clients flexibility and believable color.

Great hair is a lifestyle and not just a quick style; great hair color is one that gets better with time.
