I have been a client of DJ for over 10 years now. There is no other way to say it: DJ is simply amazing. A master colorist seems to be too small of a title for him. For many years I stayed true to my natural color but I won’t lie. I was a little envious of the work that I had witnessed DJ do on his other clients. The last few years I decided to go for it. To try something different and my hesitation had nothing to do with DJ. It was about embracing change. I knew I was in the very best of hands to try this new venture of color! His blending techniques are absolutely breathtaking. Each strand is methodical and precise. It took him hours to bleach and blend my hair but his touch is so delicate. I have textured hair and he really has the eye to blend color into my hair at just the right strand of curl. The finished product is always spectacular. My only issue with DJ — and I tell him — is that I can’t take him home with me :).
My recommendation is to not hesitate. Book him. He is not only a gifted natural talent but a very fun, professional person who will provide honest feedback. If you can, show up a little early to see him do the finishing touch on his earlier client. I always stare in awe and I guarantee when you leave him someone will do the same to you.
