Kelly is an amazing stylist!! My hair was well overdue for some color and a cut. She told me exactly what I needed and did a fantastic job. I will definitely be coming back to her.

Kelly is a Master Barberess. I have hair that grows in different directions. It confuses most. She has groomed my hair from the beginning with perfection. She can read how your hair grows before she cuts. Her family has history in this art. You won’t be disappointed.

Doing her magic yet again for me !! I am so in love with this...i havent highlighted my hair since I was 18, Im now 33 and I dont regret it one bit. She also kept me informed through the process so I know what was being used on my hair how to care for it etc....Kelly Killebrew is amazing !! I would recommend her to anyone :)

Just had my hair cut by Kelly on Friday and I was real happy with it! Since moving here 8 months ago I havent had a haircut that I loved until this one! We also consulted on future blonding that Id like to do and I felt like Kelly was knowledgeable and confident in her skills. Her shop inside the lofts is clean and professional. I already booked my next trim with her in 6 weeks. Thank you Kelly!

Awesome experience at throttle up! I love my hair and had a great time while getting it done. Thanks again Kelly!

Kelly did an AMAZING job on my hair. She breathed brand new life into it. I never thought my hair could look this great until she put her magic on it. I will always be a returning customer. She even found a moment to squeeze my husband in for a cut while my hair was processing. His hair also looks better than hes ever had it done elsewhere. I cannot speak highly enough about her and her skills. Thank you so much, Kelly!!

I’ve been going to Kelly for a while now and we have developed a great relationship! She knows my fine hair and me wanting to change things around with my style and what works with it.I love the color she picked for my highlights and my new hair style. I love love love it and her!!

Kelly is a fun, creative, talented, and excellent hair stylist. She’s not just a stylist, But an artist that has perfected her craft. I never leave her chair feeling like I could have gotten a better service any where else.

Review 13 (2024-02-22 - Rating: 5)
Kelly is the absolute best! I came to her after dying my hair with black box hair dye from Walmart and attempting to bleach it back to my natural hair color by myself. It looked absolutely terrible and was completely dead, I was worried it would have to be cut off or cost thousands to fix. Kelly made me feel so comfortable and saved my hair without having to cut it or spend a crazy amount on products. Its so healthy and back to my natural color and I would not trust anyone else with it, I drive to Miami to see her and it is worth the trip every time. She saved my hair and I am so excited to see her every appointment, I recommend her to everyone and am so thankful to have found her.

Kelly is amazing and I highly recommend her. Not only does she have an amazing personality but has amazing skills (not to mention a beautiful space). She works magic and I leave feeling beautiful. I wish I had a before pic to share but my results show for themselves.

Absolutely love the place. Kelly is the best. She took my severely damaged and missed colored hair and made a masterpiece out of it. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.

Kelly is the best in town! She does my hair exactly how I like it. Never cuts or trims too short and the color is always perfect! She’s also the only one to cut my husband’s hair perfect! And let’s not forget how amazing she is with my 3 and 5 year old boys! She makes them feel comfortable and gives them the cutest cuts! Simply the best from Kelly! Highly recommend :)

Love!!! Originally had an appointment for 2 of us (my daughter and myself) but had to reschedule my appointment. Kelly is AMAZING! So knowledgeable and gave us suggestions and tips for care/quality. Her loft is comfortable and she offers snacks, drinks and adult beverages! Highly recommend coming out to see her for ALL your hair needs! Will definitely be coming back!

Kelly is an amazing stylist and every time I go my hair turns out so nice. I get color, highlights and cutWith blow out. She does an amazing job and I have recommended her to several people. I’m always getting compliments on my hair and highly recommend her to anyone. She is always pleasant and fun to talk toAs well and makes you feel comfortable.

Review 22 (2024-02-16 - Rating: 5)
Kelly has been cutting my hair for a long time at a previous haircutting venue, so when I heard the news that she was opening up her own business, no questions asked, I made the move to Throttle Up. Kelly has the perfect mixture of skills and charisma; I’ve never walked away from one of her sessions disappointed in the slightest. When it’s time to go get my hair cut again, I always look forward to the excellent conversation I get from Kelly as it’s both light and meaningful. She always felt like a friend and over the years and many haircuts, she has now turned into a good friend.Professional, caring, and an awesome place to walk away with a new haircut!

Kelly K is top notch. She’s personable and adventurous but takes the time to get to know what you want as a client.

Review 24 (2024-02-01 - Rating: 5)
I’ve been going to Kelly for well over a year now. I was in the midst of trying to find a new barber and stumbled upon her. I’m so glad I did! She’s the best! I always get compliments on my haircut and she does the best fade! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair but her! Thank you Kelly for always making me look fresh!

Review 25 (2024-10-03 - Rating: 5)
Lucky enough to get in on short notice. Kelly was awesome- very cordial and welcoming. Offered a drink from the small bar which was a great touch. In top of it all, the cut and beard trim are perfect. Will return.

Review 26 (2024-03-30 - Rating: 5)
Kelly is THE KING at fading. She’s also so knowledgeable, trust her, she’ll know what’s look best on you. It’s not just a haircut, it’s a relaxation experience. I will go months without a haircut if Kelly is booked bc I don’t trust anyone to do with my hair that she does. Kelly is hands down the best barber, and she knows how to help men look their best. She’s my barber for life, Kelly is the best if you want to look your best👍.
