created the most beautiful dimension on her guest last weekend. We love incorporating Aveda’s Botanical Repair professional treatment system when coloring hair to ensure each strand is protected and strong during the coloring process.

Nothing prettier than shiny, healthy, happy hair!

Have you ever gotten hungry after staring at a picture of hair? This one reminds us of straight up chocolate 🍫 the richness of her base color and dimension of her highlights give her the best of both worlds.

The power of a deep conditioning treatment and the right combo of styling products 🔥

transformed Ahtziri’s curls by nurishing her hair with the Aveda Intensive Curl Perfecting Masque and followed up with the Be Curly Advanced curl perfecting primer + coil defining gel to style out her gorgeous coils. Finishing touches done with Nutriplenish multi use oil. This combo is quickly becoming a favorite!

We loooove reading your Google reviews of the salon and are so thankful to get your positive feedback!

This review from Heather’s first time guest is a true reflection of how she connects with her guests and delivers incredible results ✨

Jordyn’s attention to detail and expertise with color is unmatched 🔥 her guest’s color journey from suuuuper blonde + warm to a more dimensional bronde is so stunning. The best part, Jordyn has blended her grey with the teeniest foils so she won’t have an obvious grow out line. We love to see transformations like this!

Hair extensions really are magic ✨

Jennifer has been wearing hair extensions for 6 months, working on growing out her natural hair from a shorter pixie cut. The impact from wearing hair extensions has been so powerful for her—not only is her natural hair growing and thriving, but Jennifer’s confidence has doubled.

If you or someone you know struggles with feeling confident because of fine hair, hair loss, or lack of hair density, this is your permission slip to schedule a consultation and talk through hair extension options.

3 things to keep in mind when going red 🚨

•Red color is the quickest to fade. Keeping up with regular (6-8 week) glosses will ensure your color looks vibrant and shiny

•When heat styling ALWAYS use a heat protectant and keep the temperature of your hot tool at 375 or below. Heat will assist in fading of color

•Use color safe shampoo + conditioner. We recommend the Color Control line from Aveda!

So tell us, are you ready to add a little spice 🍂🍁 into your haircolor? Color + cut by

Did you know not every foiling appointment needs actual highlights?

Mia’s guest wanted to create dimension without sacrificing the integrity of her hair. Mia placed lowlights throughout her head to create gorgeous shiny dimension and finished her off with a gloss + Botanical Repair treatment to enhance her tone and strengthen her strands.

Introducing a new face to our team, welcome Jordyn!

An Aveda Color Purefessional, Jordyn has dedicated her 16 year career in the beauty industry to her students, her guests, and Aveda as a brand. Fun fact—while Jordyn was studying cosmetology at PCI in Ames, she joined the Marc Stephens team as a front desk coordinator. Now, years later she gets to create incredible transformations behind the chair in Des Moines!

Jordyn is an artist through and through, finding joy in all things creative. When she’s not in the salon you can find Jordyn creating new baking recipes (she’s really freaking good), training for her next half marathon and hanging with her fur squad, Orville and Teeny.

To know Jordyn is to love her and we could not be more thrilled to have her grow with us on our team. Give her a follow and show her some love! 🙌🏼

Now that the weather is starting to be consistently warmer we are seeing a lot more blondes! Bailey colored this gorgeous head of hair the most perfect tone of blonde

Where are our readers at?? Bailey is a huge Colleen Hoover fan and has read many of her books. Book with her and chat about your latest read 📚

02/22/2024

What is your favorite part about getting your hair done? The talks with your fav stylist, the shampoo + massage, the kid-free silence/time to read that new book while your color processes?

We love all of these and more! We can’t wait to pamper you during your next appointment at Marc Stephens Salon. Call (515) 274-4545 to reserve your appointment today ☀️

02/20/2024

We love hearing your feedback! Thank you, Bob, for your kind words. We are so happy to hear your experience at Marc Stephens was top notch. We take pride in knowing all our guests leave feeling like this ✨

For a blonde that shines bright, we love keeping the tone raw ☀️ .miaclaire did an incredible job with Lauren’s color!

02/08/2024

What if we told you you don’t HAVE to wait 2 years to grow your hair out? The ability to add length in one appointment is life-changing. The power of extensions are life-changing. Lauren transformed her guest’s pixie into a seamless lob to ease the grow out period for her. After a year of wearing hair, Jennifer will be able to wear her natural hair and will have skipped the awkward stages of growing out a pixie.

Have you been interested in extensions but have no idea where to start? Book a consultation with one of our two talented Bello Haven certified extension artists today. + .miaclaire
