Meticulouspassionateprofessional
A role model for healthy, balanced living, McKenzie's strength, energy, and confidence make her an inspiring leader. She originally wanted to be a photographer, but when she discovered cosmetology after high school, it spoke to both her love of art and her passion for self-care. After 8 years at ROP, McKenzie's versatility shines as she expertly executes every type of hair service, gladly working long hours because she truly loves what she does. For Mckenzie, the highlight of her job is making clients feel good emotionally and physically, because hair can have such a huge impact on people's well-being. Her spritz of advice is to embrace the ebb and flow of challenges and successes, knowing that the good days will always outweigh the bad.
The experienceWhy guests choose McKenzie
I think most of my guest comment on how meticulous I can be. I’m very detailed, and I put a lot of time and care into my work. I think of every service as my own art project and art has always been a true joy and passion of mine. Because of that I work early hours and I work late hours giving me a strong, reliable work ethic because I truly love what I do, and where I work. If I can fit a service in I always will but not if it jeopardizes the time with my next client
I want guest to feel happy when they’re interacting with me. I want them to view me as professional. Though it can come across how busy I can be at time I want them to feel like when it’s my time with them I’m 100% focused on them. I want them to feel considered, listened to, beautiful and pampered. And I want them to genuinely enjoy our time as a whole together! I love creating a relationship for them to remeber and hair that they love!
The matchIdeal guest
Foil work. Highlights, low lights, teasey lights. With proper time to spend processing then shadow rooting and toning afterwards. Haircuts to follow. I prefer long hair and bobs over pixies. Pixies I believe to be not one of my stronger talents.

The consultationWhat to expect
I start by asking what we’re doing today. Then we start to dissect. I’ll ask what you like and what you don’t like about your inspiration. We’ll discuss hair history. What your typical daily hair routine is. How much maintenance you’re okay or not ok with. I hope to make you feel validated and understood by the end of our consultation and like we’ve reached an understanding. If you have any questions before we start I encourage you to please ask!
I suggest sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, and heat protection prior to heat styling
First-time guestsDepending if they want to drastically change their color I would honestly prefer they book a consultation only prior to the real appointment. If not

From the chairWhat guests are saying
A very nice experience at your Venetian Village location! I got just what I asked for from McKenzie thanks to help of Sophia and Carolyn at the desk. I was pleased to get a natural manicure from Malinda also. Will book again when back in town.
The entire experience from beginning to end is always excellent. Mckenzie is knowledgable, professional, and an excellent colorist and stylist. I highly recommend her. Also, the whole team is welcoming and helpful.
McKenzie and Sam are the best!! I came in a little indecisive about what I wanted done, I showed McKenzie a couple of pictures, and somehow she knew exactly what I needed! I came in later in the day, I was the last person there, and they did not rush at all, they took their time and stayed until my hair was perfect! I felt so cared for the whole time, the salon is beautiful, clean, and calming. 10/10 experience! I have never had a better haircut in my life, I cannot say enough good things, I will definitely be going back and I would 100% recommend to a friend!
From Michigan and got my hair cut on on a whim on 12/27/19. Did some research online for an upscale salon in the area. Decided to take a chance and glad I did. McKenzie was fabulous. She is personable and talented. When I return to the area next year, I will be sure to go back and have her cut my hair again. Thank you!

I wish that I could stay with McKensie but I look forward to seeing the baby when he/she arrives. And I hope that it is an easy delivery. I think that Mckensie did an excellent job on my hair.
The entire ROP staff is very professional and courteous. Mackenzie is the best stylist I have ever worked with. She listens, she doesn't overdo, and she is immensely talented!
Everyone is always exceptionally pleasant. McKenzie continues to give me wonderful haircuts, and her assistant, Nicole, is efficient, competent, and very sweet…

As always, excellent service and results. I've been going here for over 25 years!! I don't know what I'll ever do if Diana should decide to retire!!!!
McKenzie gives me a fabulous cut. I can’t say enough about her expertise…and she’s also a lovely person…a winning combination for sure!
The most professional and talented stylist in Naples! McKenzie and her assistant Sam are incredible. I have never been disappointed.
McKenzie is a very talented stylist who is excellent with color and cut, plus interactions with her always makes for a great day!
I really liked Sam. She did a very nice job washing my hair and she applied "the service" which helps with the itching.
