New Haven Register's Readers' Poll: Best of Greater New Haven


Salon owner and namesake, Tatjana Reynolds, graduated from the Brio Academy in 2008. Instructed by masters from around the world, she is always striving to expand her knowledge of the latest hair trends and techniques. Being close to metropolitan areas, has kept Tatjana connected to the pulse of changing trends, as well as state-of-the-art educational opportunities. In 2016 Tatjana turned her attention to the world of Davines, the only hair company to be a certified B Corporation. Sustainability and career longevity are important to maintaining a successful salon and The Intimate Salon in Branford, Connecticut was born. In 2019 Tatjana started her journey as a Davines Educator in New England, training other salons and owners to utilize the brand and techniques effectively.

“As a hairstylist, my main focus is the integrity of your hair and achieving low maintenance hair. As an owner, my goal is to help others adapt sustainable business practices and work environments.” -Tatjana

Our mission is to provide a safe and informative space for the creation of eco-conscious, healthy and low maintenance hair.

Our Pricing

WE BELIEVE IN SUSTAINABLE BEAUTY. WE BELIEVE IN DAVINES.

I specialize in women’s styles ranging from fun pixies to swinging lengths, as well as clipper-free men’s cuts. My love of chemistry puts the focus on creating multidimensional tones for any hair color and tackling a difficult color correction. I am well practiced in the technique of balayage, and love the challenge of finding something more low maintenance for you! I also offer treatments to keep you looking your best and the full bridal package in-salon or on-site at your wedding venue.
