What People Are Saying……….

Chase Michna is my hair stylist and has been for the past few years.  As any consistently pleased patron would do, I happily followed her when she relocated to Modena in Berkeley.  Aside from her decades of experience as a stylist and colorist (a.k.a. talent : ) she is fully present* when she collaborates with me on what my goals are (i.e. I want to present a professional appearance to clients and to those in the health & medical field), on what my needs are (i.e. to be able to pull my hair up if needed while conducting massage therapy sessions) and desires, options and of course, education on what products are best to achieve that.  *Chase is people-oriented & not only task-oriented.  She holds a calmness as well as a confidence in her approach..which then translates into an elevated experience for me : )
A bonus: Chase freely shares relevant self-care tips for straight, wavy, and curly hair types via  "Happy Healthy Hair" on FB, Instagram and YouTube. ~Ruth C.

Chase Michna is AHMaaaazing! As a business owner and frequent public speaker, having a cut that ALWAYS looks great is Important to me. She works magic with  my curly hair, teaches me product and styling hacks, has supported me through various stages of growing out old hairstyles and gracefully transitioned me to new ones. She is an expert colorist AND this woman offers a high-vibe, drama-free zone. You will not look back except to admire Chase's work!

OH! And Modena is super cute too:  bright and airy, lots of plants, high quality natural products, easy to book, tea and champagne...

Chase is a magic worker. My hair has transitioned from stick straight to curly over the last couple of years and I hadn't found a stylist that gave me a cut that worked for my hair. Chase not only gave me an amazing cut and style but took the time to talk me through my new curly hair situation. It's been easy to maintain and I'm so grateful for her expertise.

I got my hair cut by Chase, who is truly amazing at her craft! I have curly hair and have been rocking shorter hair for about three years now. I recently moved to Walnut Creek, changed my shampoo, and my hair had grown out since my last cut 6 months ago. Needless to say my curls were limp or non-existent and I hated looking at my locks in the mirror. I wasn't sure if it was the shampoo, the drier climate or my old cut, but something had to change. Chase was able to diagnose the situation, ask me all the right questions and has given me back my bouncy curls in a haircut that has them achieving their maximum volume! Not only that, she recommended some wonderful products to keep my hair in top shape. I'm tired of experimenting with my hair's cleaning and maintenance, so I was very thankful for the advice. Definitely give your hair a treat and see Chase!
