Rae is the patron saint of curly hair.

Rae was beyond fantastic. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. I walked in with barely a glimmer of an idea of what I wanted, and I walked out with the best haircut I’ve ever had in my life. Shampoo & conditioning, Haircut, Hairstyling

I started getting my hair cut by Rae after destroying my hair over quarantine in 2020. In the past year and a half of coming to Body Politic I have been so impressed with how far my hair has come in Rae’s hands. It is always a wonderful experience coming into such an inclusive business and leaving feeling great about my hair!

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, ValueRae did my bridal hair/bridesmaid’s hair and knocked it all out of the park.

Rae listened to exactly what I wanted for my short tapered fro cut. Afterwards they also washed and styled my hair by doing two strand twists!

Positive: ProfessionalismThe owner, Rae, cut my hair. Rae is timely, professional, and a great listener. I came in with extremely long hair that hadn’t been cut in over three years. Rae was incredibly mindful of my experience and attachment to my long hair. I left with a beautiful trim at a studio that’s as well considered aesthetically as it is conceptually and ethically. Go here if you want an elevated, conscious hair experience. She books out long and trust me, it’s worth the wait.Service: HairstylingThe owner, Rae, cut my hair.

I’m so grateful for Rae and her new studio. I’ve been incredible nervous about getting my haircut since starting to grow out an almost 10 year old pixie. She made me feel welcome and comfortable, and she explained step by step the processes she was taking so I wouldn’t feel nervous or left in the dark. Best haircut experience in over a decade, I’m so excited to go back!

Marina is so much more than your average hair stylist. She is a true artist and a champion of her craft. Every time that I’ve been in her chair she has given me cuts and colors that stay fresh far beyond expectation. They somehow transform into other nice styles instead of just growing out like normal. She is sensitive and intuitive and you should just trust her vision… It’s probably cooler than what you had in mind. The salon is cozy and stylish but not at all over done. 100% Recommend

She exemplifies a commitment to professional growth by continually improving her practice through professional development. Additionally, she actively contributes to her professional community through social media and tutorials presentations. Holding true to their core values, she and her business partner created a salon space that is not only clean and safe, but also an environment that is warm and welcoming to all.

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, ValueRae is a true artist in both hair and conversation. Both appointments have left me feeling not only pampered, but well cared for. The space is beautifully lit, decorated with curious elegance, and exquisitely clean. I’ll be returning as soon as possible!Service: Hairstyling
