Derrica comes from an artistic background. From a very young age, she knew that whichever career she decided to pursue, it wasn’t going to be spent behind a desk. After carefully evaluating which form of art she wanted to focus on, Derrica aspired to be a great hairstylist. She believes that the best way to look your personal best is to have an amazing color and haircut.

“When you have a color and cut that you like and also compliments your features and lifestyle, you not only look great but you feel that way. You feel good, you project that positive energy and other people can perceive it.”

Testimonials

Best salon and spa in the area! Michelle does an awesome job with hair and pedicures and Sherry is phenomenal with her massage skills! I won’t go anywhere else now that I’ve discovered this gem!!!

 

I love Jess!!!! She always does a wonderful job & listens to what I say about my hair. She gives good advice, and on the one occasion something needed to be tweaked, it was done with a joyful heart!!! The reception staff is always welcoming too!!!

 

I never have a bad experience here. I get what I ask for always. Staff are very knowledgeable and won’t let me make a mistake with my hair.

 

Amazing experience, had pedicures with my daughter. They made sure both of us felt pampered. My daughter felt so special—she can’t wait to go back!

 

I LOVE EXPRESSIONS BY DESIGN! The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. All services I’ve had been wonderful—from my hair cuts and colors, to massages, pedicures and waxes! Katie Petty does an amazing job every time! Expressions its my go-to place!

 

I can truly relax at Expressions, and know I can count on Dericca to cut and color my hair the way I would like it. I love the caring atmosphere and also the cheery upbeat welcome every time I enter the door.

 

I had an appointment for an airbrush makeup trial run, in preparation for my wedding. Maddy did an awesome job! She was very knowledgeable and patient with me when I asked questions. I had a great experience!

 

I have known the ladies for a long time and would not trust anyone else to do my hair. They are all so easy to talk to and genuine.
THE BEST PLACE IN PELLA

 

Maddie was great. Everyone at Expressions was very friendly. I absolutely love my hair!
