Some Kind Words

The stylist here is friendly and I felt like I was in an intimate environment being in a personal space. She even served me her specialty espresso with cold foam! Usually at a salon I wear my head phones to listen to music or a podcast. I did not wear them at all because her presence was so inviting and entertaining. Not only I saw her as an Artist (because everyone isn’t good with my hair type) but I also saw her as a sister. I could go on and on about my visit but I’ll have plenty of opportunities to do that with all of the hair compliments I’ve been receiving. Did I mention I LOVE MY HAIR! Thank you again Lorraine.

I recently got K-Tip extensions and I am obsessed! The hair itself feels amazing — super lightweight, incredibly soft, and blends perfectly with my natural hair. I love how much movement and flexibility I have with styling now, it feels so natural! Lorraine was my service provider and she was absolutely amazing. She’s friendly, professional, and so easy to talk to. She really listened and understood exactly what I wanted, and delivered beyond my expectations. I couldn’t recommend her more!If you’ve been thinking about trying K-Tips, do it — I’m in love with my hair

I had my hair done by Loraine for the first time and I couldn’t be happier! From the moment I sat in her chair, she was warm, personable, and made me feel completely comfortable. She really listened to what I wanted and gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had — it came out even better than I imagined. Her attention to detail and genuine care for her clients truly show in her work. I left feeling confident and already know I’ll be coming back. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for both talent and an amazing experience!

Where do I begin… we started with a little café con leche grounds straight out of Puerto Rico, Lorraine!
I cannot thank Lorraine enough for the incredible transformation she gave me! She double processed my hair and worked her magic into a short, edgy cut that feels bold, fresh, and absolutely fabulous. Her attention to detail, creativity, and skill made the whole experience amazing. Not only do I love the final look, but I also felt completely cared for throughout the process. Lorraine truly has a gift for bringing out the best in her clients — I’ve never felt more confident and stylish. If you’re looking for a stylist who can completely transform your look with artistry and heart, Lorraine is the one!

I recently got K-Tips installed by Lorraine and I’m so happy with the results!
The install was super seamless, she took her time, and made sure everything felt comfortable.
Having the extra hair does take getting used to, it does blend beautifully with my natural hair.
Lorraine walked me through every step.
She made sure I understood how to care for them and checked in often to be sure I was comfortable.
Lorraine made this “first time extension girlie” entire experience easy!
I left feeling confident and loving my hair ❤️ -

Lorraine is an excellent professional with great knowledge and experience handling all types of hair textures. I found her through a search I did for curly hair specialist in Tampa via Instagram. I am amazed with her ability to work with my fine curly hair and help keep my hair healthy, beautiful and super curly.

I will never NOT rave about Lorraine’s talent! Most recently I had K-Tip extensions installed by Lorraine and they are amazing. I’ve had every type of hair extension, and by far this is my favorite. Not only are my results flawless, but the installation was quicker than expected. She is a wizard! I highly recommend these hair extensions, and only from the best in Tampa, Lorraine Fred Beauty.

Excelente experiencia. Quedé muy feliz y encantada con mi cabello. El corte rizado quedó precioso y los highlights perfectos. Lorraine es muy profesional, dedicada y se nota su gran experiencia trabajando el cabello rizado. Cuidó cada detalle y me hizo sentir muy cómoda durante todo el proceso. Sin duda la recomiendo y volveré pronto.

Lorraine is truly a hair genius. She’s amazing with color. My highlights and tones always come out rich, natural, and exactly what I was hoping for. Her haircuts are consistently flattering and easy to style, and she really takes the time to understand what you want.
I also had a Keratin hair straightening treatment with her, and the results were incredible. My hair feels smooth, healthy, and frizz-free. Lorraine made the whole process so comfortable and easy.
She’s professional, kind, and so talented. I highly recommend Lorraine if you’re looking for expert color, cuts, or smoothing treatments. You won’t be disappointed
