About Us
Hair styling and coloring has been my passion for  30 years. Turning that
passion into a business, Illusions Hair   Designs has been serving the
community since 2004. Our clientele base and list of available services has
only grown over time, as we grow as professionals. A graduate from
Middletown Beauty School and Orange County BOCES, I also have
continuing education with Schwarzkopf and Goldwell in order to keep
up-to-date with the newest trends. I take tremendous pride in my work and
strive to make each client feel special. Whether you are interested in simply
maintaining your current style, or you're looking for a drastic change, we
guarantee your satisfaction.

I began working with Illusions Hair Design in 2004 , bringing with me 31
years of experience as a hairstylist. After attending the Vidal Sassoon
Academy in NYC, I furthered my coloring skills by attending the Schwarzkopf
Color Academy. I am also certified with Goldwell and Rusk hair cutting
techniques. I strive in achieving the best results for all of my clients and use
all available resources in order to make that happen
After stumbling upon Illusions Hair Designs one afternoon in desperate need
of a color-correction, and receiving spectacular service there was no looking
back for me! Having been a loyal customer for two years, I am now a proud
member of the team since 2010, specializing in color, cut and styling. I
graduated from Sewanhaka Central High School Beauty Culture BOCES on
Long Island in 1997.
