What Southeast Michigan is saying about K Bella

I have been seeing Kristan for nearly 15 years and would trust no one else to cut and/or color my hair! That is the easy part of this review. She's an amazing stylist and color expert...whatever you need she can deliver.I am going to pivot and get into the taboo discussion around hair loss, because that is really what this review is truly about.After being diagnosed with Hashimotos in my early 20's I began to see the effects of thinning hair at a very early age. My hair was what defined me and my look, it is hard to see that go down the drain (literally) and it shook my confidence. I tried things like changing my part, cutting it short, nioxin, dying it black/blonde to help hide the thinning and every thickening product sold on the market. Nothing really worked.I was always very open with Kristan on how this made me feel, and about 10 ish years ago, she turned me on to buildable fibers...what a freaking game changer for me. I immediately felt more confidence and was able to mask the thinning at the part. Fast forward ten years (I am just over 50 years young) and add in a diagnosis of diabetes and having COVID twice and those fibers just were not cutting it anymore.Enter Kristan's passionate desire to help me...we started down the path of trying out a hair topper (my hair loss is mostly on the top of my head ). She researched and studied and researched more and finally she was happy with a product to try out. We dove in head first (literally) over 15 months ago and haven't looked back. I am not talking about the clip in kind of toppers, this is taped in similar to how they do extensions. I have no work to on my end besides style and go.I now have the absolute best hair of my life. My confidence is back baby, I love my hair and everything about it! My hair is the easiest it has ever been to style with my topper...yeah I said it...my hair is better than it was! There is nothing I can't do with my topper...shower, swim, sweaty head from a workout...looks and acts like the real deal!! No kidding.In full transparency, there is only one real requirement, you have to come in every 3-4 weeks to have it tightened, I personally can go 4 but it will depend on how fast your hair grows.The frosting on this hair story, I will bet my life if you met me you would not know that the entire top of my head is a topper! YES it looks that good, even my dermatologist said 'wow, that looks amazing I had no idea'Ladies, if you are struggling with thinning or your further down your hair loss journey, please do yourself a favor and book a consultation with Kristan and just have that conversation...don't suffer in silence. You won't be disappointed.Kristan, I love you and appreciate you with all of my heart (I know who says that to their stylist, right?). You have made hair loss your passion and I will be forever grateful to you. I am so glad my friend referred me to you all those years ago. I am not sure I have the exact words to describe what you have done for my confidence levels and when I look in the mirror I love the reflection I see now...it is all because of YOU. You have been dedicated to making sure we used the right product, you have perfected how to put it on and your attention to detail is what made me trust you from the beginning. You are amazing and I am so proud of the owner/stylist you have become over the years. I can't wait to see how great my hair is gonna look when I'm 80!

I owe Kristan and her staff my life, and I'm not being dramatic. I am a cancer survivor who underwent and (thankfully) finished chemotherapy and all my treatments, however, that means that I also lost all of my hair in the process. Being a young 21 year old girl, losing my hair in this way was really heartbreaking; my hair was one of my favorite things about me. I hated looking in the mirror and I hated taking pictures. I tried synthetic wigs as well, but it just wasn't the same. My aunt found Kristan and K Bella Studio online, and we went in for a consult. I instantly trusted Kristan, there was zero doubt in my mind. Her plan was to put a topper and extensions on my very very short hair (no longer than an inch all the way around). This seemed impossible to me because I was practically bald, and all of this was so new to me, but Kristan made sure to overly explain each step so I would be more comfortable and understanding of everything. I knew this would be a challenge for Kristan as well, but again, once she has an idea, she runs with it, and she works hard to get the outcome she wants (only the best). Seeing myself with the hair for the very first time made me cry, and I can confidently say that this is the best I have felt in a year, and I owe it all to Kristan and her staff. My extensions and topper have stayed and look beautiful (I believe we got the 14inch hair extensions- similar to the length I had before I lost my hair) I get compliments everywhere I go, and people cannot believe it when I tell them it's not my real hair. I cannot recommend this salon any harder. They are all so sweet to me everytime I come in and let me know that I still look good with or without the extensions- they are the best part of my day everytime I go in. I could talk about this and how much I love what they did for me all day, I appreciate them more than they will ever know.
