I’ve always believed that great hair should look beautiful and feel effortless to wear. Whether you’re dreaming of dimensional color, a fresh haircut, or a smoothing keratin treatment, I want your hair to feel just as good as it looks.

Blonde coloring is one of my favorite things to do, from bright highlights to soft, lived-in dimension. I also offer personalized keratin treatments for clients looking for smoother, more manageable hair.

We’ll talk through your goals, daily routine, and maintenance preferences to choose the color, cut, or smoothing service that works best for you.

  •   Krysta did such an amazing job on my hair!!! I started from black virgin hair and got a beautiful ashy brown balayage! I knew I could trust Krysta with my hair from the start and she was so sweet and patient with me being new to coloring hair and answered all the questions I had.
    They recently redid their salon so it's really beautifully decorated... read more

      A huge shoutout to Krysta for giving me such a beautiful updo for a wedding I was attending. Besides being extremely talented with any and every service she does on hair, she is the sweetest, most genuine person! You'll honestly never be bored sitting in her chair. I can't wait to come back and see what other amazing creation she comes up with!

  •   Krysta is great! I recently moved to Santa Barbara and found Krysta through Yelp - she gave me lovely balayage and a very flattering haircut. The salon is cute, clean, and everyone was very nice! I will definitely be returning!

  •   Krysta is the absolute best!!! I went in to get my hair styled before a wedding and couldn't be more pleased with the work. She is so thoughtful and a great listener to exactly what her clientele wants! She took the time to change things when it wasn't exactly what I envisioned. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking to get their hair styled!... read more

  •   I love getting my hair done by Krysta. She knows how to work with my hair which can be difficult because it's naturally really curly and has a mind of its own. I always feel like a million bucks after spending 30 minutes in Krysta's chair.

      Krysta is literally the sweetest human and the most talented hairstylist I have ever had. I've had platinum hair for about a year and a half but I started growing out my roots which are BLACK and they eventually got so long this I wanted to do something about it. I went to many stylists in southern california and no one was able to successfully... read more

      I just can't even begin to explain the absolutely amazing experience I've had with Krysta. First off, she fit me into her schedule quickly. That already deserved 5 stars. Then, she decided to bust out the greatest hair artistry I've ever seen and transformed my hair that was dead, multi-toned, and clearly a quarantine hair disaster to EXACTLY what I wanted and even more! That... read more

  •   Being new to the area, I chose Krysta from yelp. Her reviews were good, and she was said to be more affordable than most Santa Barbara stylists. Well let me tell you, I am thrilled with my cut and color. My hair is coarse and wavy, and can be hard to work with. Krysta is VERY skilled and knowledgeable! And she is also very affordable,... read more

      I cannot believe how beautiful a day my daughters wedding was. I called Krysta in a panic because our MUAH team was stuck on the other side of the road closure.
