Alyssa is the best of the best when it comes to hair! She listens to my hair goals and the final product always looks better than I imagined! Her studio is gorgeous and has a calming vibe when you are getting pampered. 10/10 recommend!

Alyssa is phenomenal! I’ve been going to her for years now and she always does a great job! I met Alyssa when I was in high school and seeing her work helped inspire me to become a stylist myself. She’s always easy to talk to and no matter how long it’s been since my last appt, she always remembers our previous conversations and follows up. Her salon is beautiful and it has such a calming and safe energy to it. Her photography is also very well done! Alyssa is highly talented and a wonderful person! (:

From the first time I sat in Alyssas chair, I knew Id be back again and again. Not only does she work her hair magic, but shes incredibly down to earth, caring, and always up for sharing her hair care and styling tips with me along the way. Truly, cant recommend her enough <3

Let’s face it, we all want to look like a princess on our wedding day, right? Thanks to Alyssa, that dream was easily attainable. Alyssa works with her brides and clients to understand exactly what they want.On the big day, Alyssa arrived on schedule with a big smile and a cup of coffee for me. Although my nerves already had me plenty alert, this gesture was so appreciated. Alyssa’s presence was a combination of sunny and calm. She was just what I needed! I wanted to get ready in our hotel room with my four sisters/bridesmaids. Crammed into such a tight and personal space, it had the opportunity to be awkward- something I hadn’t thought about beforehand. Additionally, this only provided us with a stool and two mirrors. However, Alyssa took everything in stride and made everyone comfortable. She managed to fit right in!When it came down to the hair itself, it was evident that Alyssa knew what she was doing. She twirled, curled, and pinned my hair with a speed and precision that only comes through hours of practice. She also used high-quality, pleasant-smelling products, which I so appreciated! The hair Alyssa styled for my sisters somehow matched their personalities perfectly, and all of them were very happy with the results. Though I had a general idea of what I wanted for my hair, Alyssa appeared to read my mind- and more! I was absolutely amazed at how my hair had turned out. I received so many compliments! AND- big one ladies- my long and thick hair stayed in my updo ALL NIGHT. You heard me. Despite the rough and goofy groomsmen throwing me in the air, the limbo, and dancing for hours on end, no more than a few wisps of hair had fallen loose. And yet, my hair also wasn’t crispy to the touch and didn’t give me a headache? Magic, I tell you.If you are reading this and trying to decide whether or not you should hire Alyssa to fix up your dream wedding hair, THIS IS YOUR SIGN. What are you waiting for?

My husband and I had a small wedding in Tofte in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic. I was finding it difficult to find a hairstylist that was willing to drive the distance (1.5 hours from Duluth one wayfor bride-only hair as I did not have a party, and that was available for a Sunday- until I found Alyssa at Lovedahl Salon! Alyssa was SO accommodating to my situation and was very easy to work with. I came to my trial with a picture of what I had in mind, and Alyssa recreated it exactly how I imagined and took the time to make sure she was giving me what I wanted. Her salon is also gorgeous and unique. Alyssa is an incredibly kind, accommodating, fun, and talented person to work with, and I’m so glad I found her for my wedding!
