I have gone to this salon for years. Even though I moved out of state, I still get back here just to get my hair done at Diaspora. Lea is very skilled and friendly. My hair is always perfect when I leave. Great cut and great curls. The salon space is also top notch.

This was such an amazing experience! First time styling my hair natural/curly and every step of the process was explained to me to help me learn how to care for my own hair. Could not recommend coming here more- 10/10 stars!!!

I had an amazing experience at Diaspora’s new Hampden location and can’t wait to go back. I had my first ever Wash & Go service done by Andie, who is the sweetest. The whole visit start to finish was such a vibe!! Easy, free parking… it smelled amazing in the salon… beautiful plants and holiday decor and Christmas music playing. There were also snacks, delicious mimosa and WARM aromatherapy towels for my neck during the whole service!? I felt so relaxed & pampered. Although my silk press (from another salon) gave me a little heat damage, the detox had my curls melting like butter and the final look is amazing, I’m obsessed! I also left with instructions on how to care and refresh it at home. I will be back very soon for my next service!!

The salon is gorgeous and my hair came out better than I imagined. As a curly girl, it has always been a struggle to walk into a salon and feel uneasy, not knowing if I will leave the salon feeling better than I came. The shape and feel of my hair is the best it’s ever been. The Salon decor is intentional, chic and fitting to the name. Very pro black, it was gorgeous, inviting, & very clean. They had snacks and beverages and a thoughtful aromatherapy selection during the wash process. I look forward to coming back and recommending to others. If you are looking for a curly cut, this is definitely your spot!

Leah is amazing! Best hair experience I have ever had. I do not live in the area and now I literally plan my travel around going to Leah. I have had a lot of hairdressers and stylists get tired while doing my hair, or get frustrated. Not only is Leah thorough, but also fast and my hair has been FLOURISHING. Leah handles my hair with care and ease. I love love love my twists every single time. I am soooo grateful!!
