Tessany Birster

Owner & Level 4AA Stylist

Chocolates Cherries & Blondes was opened in 2008 with the vision of having a professional, fun and friendly salon in Maple Valley so our community had a local place to go with the skill set and products of a downtown salon but with the luxury of not having to leave our town. Our salon has grown in to more than I ever could have hoped for. We have an amazing team that craves to learn and grow in their craft and loves to serve our clients to their highest potential. We love our clients and we love what we do. If there is ever anything we can do to serve you better I would love your feed back. We pride ourselves on education and satisfaction of our clients and are excited to be a part of your beauty regimen. Your decision to visit us is a choice that we deeply appreciate and we will always strive to make your time with us fun and relaxing.
