Case Studies & Testimonials
"Liana and I have known each other over 20 years as I supply her with her hair care products. I was telling her how I was experiencing high sugar levels. She recommended I get her book to help me make some changes. She put me on a regime for a week and followed up with herbs and vitamins. I noticed how my blood sugar numbers started to decrease. A few months later when I attended my doctor’s appointment, I was told my A1C went down to a more normal level!"

"My journey to natural hair began over 5 years ago. My husband really encouraged me to make the transition since he was not accustomed to protective styles such as hair extensions and wigs. I enjoyed them due to the versatility, reduced trips to the salon, and low maintenance. My best friend and a colleague truly helped me to commit to taking the first step after watching their hair growth, styles, and colors. I was in awe and eager to get started when the fear of various requirements began to take root. I thought The "Big Chop" was dreadful and not appropriate for my career. However, the staff at Y.O.U. Salon helped to reassure me, established rapport, and trust. They've managed all of my styles and are gracious enough to take me back as a client when I've tried to venture out on 1-2 occasions to someone new to save money. I usually return with regret over my choice that requires me to start over again. Y.O.U. Salon has taught me a lot about proper hair care as well as nutrition. Nutrition impacts our hair and the products must be tailored to each individual person.I'm still learning....they continue to work with me."

"At my recent visit to Y.O.U. Salon in Queens the ladies got to talking and eventually we started to ask each other "where do you live? To my surprise no one lived in Queens. We came from Westchester County, Bronx , Brooklyn and Harlem. Yes we all traveled from all over the city to visit Liana at Y.O.U Salon. Most women will admit that when they find a great hairdresser/stylist they will follow . I live in Harlem and there are many salons to choose from . I will admit I did try to find someone local on a few occasions because of the commute but I always came crying back to Liana. Liana keeps your hair on your head not in the sink. She does not use the same perm or products on every client . She uses products tailored to your needs just ask her assistant, she knows off the top of her head what products each client needs. She can also tell you a lot about your overall health from your hair and from looking into your eyes. An Iridology practitioner Liana can assess many of your health needs. Manicures/pedicures and make up applications are also available Not only do you leave there looking good but you leave feeling good as well. Lots of herbs and vitamins are in house and available for purchase. If you're looking for the place to get healthy and beautiful YOU salon is the place for you. I've been going for over 10 years and look forward to many more years."

Case Studies
CLIENT #1
35+ - 2 Types of Hair Loss - Alopecia Areata and Diffuse
Going through a stressful time in her life. We started her off with a simple protocol since we weren’t sure of her commitment.
Herbs that helped with her stress and vitamins and foods to help with inflammation. Topicals and two months of lower laser therapy. Most importantly letting go was the best medicine.
CLIENT #2
40+ - 1 Type of Alopecia
She came to me being diagnosed by a Dermatologist with Female Pattern Genetic Alopecia. My assessment was Telogen Effluvium.
We had to change her entire body chemistry to have better nutritional absorption. She did scalp detoxing and also internal detoxing.
She had to alter her lifestyle. Six months later she was feeling better and on her way back to growing her hair.

CLIENT #3
40+ 2 types Frontal Fibrosing and Telogen Effluvium
Fibrosing is one of the most difficult hair losses to treat. I find working with a dermatologist and in some cases, a physician is very helpful since you are working on reducing inflammation and balancing hormones.
This client needed to change her diet entirely and detox. Went to a dermatologist for topicals and in-salon low-level laser visits with essential vitamins, EFA’s (essential fatty acids).
CLIENT #4
Lichen Planus - Before
Teleogen Effluevium
This client had mild hair conditions but only months after helping her with hair and digestive issues, she showed us her skin issues. It was tough not being able to wear shorts or a dress.
Being able to help her change her lifestyle, remove triggers and detoxing was the beginning of helping her to achieve "happy skin".
CLIENT #4
After
This was a 6-month journey for her because she was open to making some changes. It was important to crowd out pathogens in her digestive system and intestinal system to help the microbial diversity. Creating a shift in the environment helped the growth of beneficial "gut bacteria" that was for her.. Starting to rebuild the mucosal barrier from the inside was the new beginning of treating. Our calm topical was essential with essential oils to help her topically.
