CURL POP
HAIR STUDIO

A curl-first salon experience for waves, curls, and coils. Custom cuts, hydration, definition, and education—so your hair can thrive between appointments too.
Services for curls that refuse to be ignored
This isn’t a “quick trim and vibes” situation. Every service is tailored to your pattern, density, and the look you’re going for—soft glam, bouncy definition, big volume… say less.
1 | The Signature Curl Cut
A curl-by-curl cut designed to make your shape look good from every angle—like… even the back. Includes cleanse + style.
Best for: bringing your curls back to life + getting your shape together
2 | Hydration Reset Treatment
Moisture therapy for curls that feel dry, dull, or a little personally offended by the weather. Softness, bounce, shine—restored.
Best for: thirsty curls, heat damage, breakage prevention
3 | Curl Coaching
Because you shouldn’t need a PhD in YouTube tutorials to have good hair. We’ll build a routine you can repeat without stress.
Best for: learning your products, refresh routine, wash day strategy

MONICA SMITH
I created Curl Pop Studio for anyone who’s ever been told their curls were “too much.”
Too much volume. Too much shrinkage. Too much frizz. Too much personality.
(Yeah… no.)
Here, we don’t “tame” curls—we style them with intention. I specialize in shaping, hydrating, and defining curls so they look expensive, effortless, and very you. You’ll leave with a look you love and the know-how to keep it popping at home—because cute curls shouldn’t be a once-a-month event.

“Monica is the first stylist who actually listened to my curl goals. My cut is flawless, my curls are defined without feeling heavy, and I walked out feeling like I should’ve had paparazzi waiting outside. The best part? I can actually recreate it at home.”
