While the My Bella Color Studio team of Hair Colorists have the world of multiple colored hair colors pegged, Tona has the world of hair extensions under full control!

Established since 2001 Tona has worked her hair extension magic on Clients ranging from young children to high fashion models and celebrity musicians.

When it comes to helping Clients achieve their desired texture and length of hair, Tona has an extremely full palette enabling her to achieve every imaginable look or style.

Below Tona answers 5 questions pertaining to her Hair Career.

My Great Grandmother was a Hair Stylist for Umberto's in Beverly Hills and as a child I would watch her Clients leave her hair chair smiling and showing her their sincere appreciation.

I found out that I had a natural talent like my Grandmother had when people started asking me to do their hair in extremely original styles and I was able to complete the task happily.

The more I did hair the more I loved it, and soon thereafter it became my passion!

It allows me to be creative and it actually relaxes me.

I love to be the solution to a "bad hair day" or to a woman in need of a fuller, healthier looking head of hair.

My philosophy is that a person's hair is their crown and therefore it must be worn well.

In history the royal families always had long hair, I believe that longer hair (made possible by hair extensions) brings out a person's "higher self". This must be true because I witness the amazing transitions daily as I apply hair extensions. To see a Client go from shoulder length hair and slouching to a woman with long, gorgeous hair who leaves the Studio walking tall and proud, I have truly learned to value my trade as a great gift to others.

STYLING?
My Styling is edgy, attention grabbing, original and out of the box! No one Client has the same look after I am done creating their new look with them.

COLORING?
I like the high fashion hair coloring that stands out and catches someone's eye! It is common for my Clients to call me back immediately as they have just received rave compliments as they left the Studio.

I enjoy customizing my hair extension applications by adding original colors to define the Client's custom look and style.

EXTENSIONS?
There are so many ways to apply extensions and there are so few people who actually know the correct way to put them in and remove them. I pay very close attention to the Client's natural hair growth patterns which is key to maintaining healthy hair!

Usually the goal of the extensions is to achieve the Client's desired look, but it is most commonly desired that the look of the new hair also be natural looking. If there is a technique that will enable me to achieve the desired look, then I will use that technique, despite the fact that the Client may never have heard of that technique.

My knowledge of hair extension techniques is so vast that the hardest thing for me as a hair extension specialist is to explain the many different techniques that are actually available.

So few people know what is available, and since every Client's hair is different, my knowledge of the techniques gives me the ability to achieve any look desired by any Client, with any type of hair!

SERVICING OTHERS?
The customer is "always right" about the way they look.

I, as the professional am servicing my Clients and my focus during the time I am working on my Client is on them.

I welcome questions, concerns and care in listening to how the Client feels about her hair both past, presently and future.

Extremely satisfied Clients is my goal. I do what it takes to make that happen.

I want to learn as much as possible, so the only time I am not available is when I am attending educational hair classes.

My goal is to open a Clinic that helps women and men who have problems with their hair growth.

I would love to help Clients who have pre-mature balding in again feeling confident in themselves.

I would love to make "permanent hair extensions" possible so that people who have pre-mature balding can be happier in their lives with healthier, fuller hair.

That my Clients will definitely enjoy their experience, from the atmosphere to the over all customer service and that they will always know that they have a friendly, artistic Hair Studio that they can come to and comfortably receive their new look.

It is common that what I do actually gives my Clients a new life.

Being that I work with women and men who have fine, thinning, hair, it is wonderful to help them achieve a hair style in which they will no longer have to be concerned about their thinning hair.

I enjoy my work and I look forward to working with my Clients every day.

My ability is a gift that I have, and one that I share readily with others.

I welcome you to join me at the My Bella Color Studio in Burbank, CA.
