Zen Central Hair Artistry and Cellular Transformation

I came in looking for an updated style & left with a cutting ceremony ( EVERYTHING I needed. ) .. the haircut is amazing… but the welcoming environment, calming aura, and positive words made the experience for me. I felt so much lighter after leaving.

Not to mention that I’ve gotten nonstop compliments about my haircut! 🤩✨

It’s been nearly 2 weeks since my hair cutting ceremony. It was an incredible experience. It was the best haircut I have ever received. I have had so many that have gone awry due to stylists being confused about my hair and then not listening to me. Zia not only heard me, but nurtured & supported me too.

Zia has played a pivotal part in my transformation: I was long overdue to cut many energetic cords that were extremely unfulfilling as well as damaging. Bye. Snip. Inviting my intentions to fill up my mind & soul….powerful & cathartic.

She also encouraged me to ditch shampoo which is a huge game changer. It’s been my second favorite bottle to ditch, booze being the first (I quit during the pandemic.) Living much lighter these days!

So happy I have found a stylist I can trust - one who is so kind, compassionate & supportive. Oozing gratitude & appreciation for Zia💚

Zia is amazing! It’s so nerve wracking to try a new hairstylist when you move to a new place, but based on the reviews, I gave her a try. I am so happy I did! Little did I know that she specializes in gray blending, which is just what I needed. My color looks fantastic (very natural highlights) and the cut is the best I’ve had in more years than I can remember. Plus, she has the best aura!

one of the best haircuts I have ever received. Not only did my hair looks amazing but I felt and even smelled amazing! Bex has such a beautiful and calming vibe to her. Would highly recommend Bex to anyone. And her welcoming committee is truly the best!🐾 thank you Bex for making me feel beautiful on my new self care journey. So happy we crossed paths.

Wow wow wooooow!😍 I just recently got my hair done by zia and let me tell you what... I'm ecstatic!😊
I wanted to do a huge transformation to mermaid hair, and I couldnt have picked a better person or place. Let me start off by telling y'all that her space is not only calm but you really feel a sense of serenity when you walk in. Because when you plan on sitting in a chair while someone transforms your look for 6 hours, you wanna feel relaxed and personally I love it when the stylist doesn't make you feel awkward. And just oh my goodness💜💙 It was all around the best idea and experience ever and I'm so glad I went to her I'd give all the stars in the world if I could 🥰 because my hair looks amazing 🧜‍♀💇‍♀😊

Zia is the absolute best stylist I have found in St Pete. Extremely knowledgeable. She listens to your needs/wants and takes hair seriously and professionally. After 7 years of stylist after stylist I finally found someone I would recommend and I highly recommend her! After someone destroyed my hair she has been able to bring it back stronger and healthier than ever.

I also recommend attending her beach meditations. They are powerful and a unique experience. Zia is also very knowledgeable with yoga, wellness, and holistic living. I have had nothing but great experiences with Zia and Zen Central.

Zia is the best. No one comes close to her expertise, knowledge and experience with hair. I have super curly hair and finding someone who truly knows what their doing with it is so hard to come by. But she knows her stuff! So so happy. My hair has come back to life!

My experience with Zia was the best intentional haircut I’ve ever had. I opened my eyes at the end and my haircut was exactly what I envisioned. Zia is truly talented, unique, & kind. Zia is the first person that has cut my hair since I moved to Saint Pete and I will definitely return back for the next one.

I have curly hair and Zia did a GREAT job. Wonderful environment and she is a sweetheart! She gave me the exact cut I wanted and needed. Give her a try!

Bex has been doing my hair for years, cutting my long curls without it swelling into a big bobb. She is mindful of cutting to accommodate both easy scrunch and go or blowing out straight. She's been painting in blond to blend my gray with my natural darker colors. I've also had gorgeous pink and purples too over the years and all look amazing. She is a talented and lovely person with a very calming space and energy. I share her info with all my people. ♡ Thanks Bex!

I get my hair done, and I really love the result, I came to die my roots, and I ma so happy with the result, have Zia's energy is amazing! I totally recommend this place.

Best hair cut I’ve ever gotten! Zia has the best energy and really helped me on all levels through my hair cut and color. My hair looks so natural and healthy! I have finally found my hair stylist in Saint Pete! I’m so happy! 💜

I absolutely loved the job Zia did on my hair coloring. I have had many people not do it correctly because they one didn’t know what they were doing and two didn’t take the time to do it right. I made an appointment with her and she was extremely informative and knew exactly what she she was doing. She was 100% invested in taking time to do it and did a fantastic job! She was extremely happy and was just as excited as I was to see the end result and boy she nailed it!!! I highly recommend her! She will be my new stylist/colorist. And I think I will try some other services she provides. She is super pleasant and nice. I’m so happy I finally found someone know how to color hair the way I like it. Zia is great!!! Give a 10 star if I could! ☺

Went to Zia for the first time yesterday, oh my goodness, I've found my new salon! What a beautiful, relaxing space. And Zia did an awesome job on my pandemic hair (I hadn't had cut or color in about a year). I felt like myself again after she worked her magic. Highly recommend this St. Petersburg gem!

I had the BEST experience here this week after it was recommended to me for a DIY quarantine cut repair. Bex has really created a warm, safe space at Zen Central. She gave my wild hair (transitioning back to curly from years of Keratin) new life and shape, and warm sun kissed highlights that I always wanted. She shared so much technically about hair maintenance that I knew, but she’s also like a body and mind sage too. I left feeling really rejuvenated beyond the hair. Zen Central is my new spot.

So...I made the huge mistake of bleaching my own hair during quarantine. Let's just say it was a mess. I just moved back to the area and was looking for someone to fix my hair. A friend recommended Zia and I'm so glad she did! She gave me an amazing new haircut and color. She somehow rescued my bleached broken hair. She is super nice and really listened to me along the way. I was so comfortable in the chair. It was a great experience. Thank you Zia! I will be coming back.

This is the best my hair has looked in years! Zia is amazing and was able to accommodate me very last minute. Her new salon is lovely and tranquil. Plus, I felt good about the products she was using in my hair. So refreshing to be in a space that is 100% owned and operated by a WOMAN !!

What an experience! Zia was amazing and attentive to my needs. The space is calming and Zia’s energy was great! Nothing high pressure about any of it, and we had great conversation. I love how my hair turned out and she neither used or pushed a ton of product on me. I felt lighter and happier walking out. Highly recommend!

Zia is amazing. Her space is welcoming and peaceful. She is absolutely an artist and my hair is perfect. She also gave me a ton of pointers on hair care/upkeep.

Thanks for the best cut I've ever had! I love it that all I have to do now is fluff my hair with my fingers and it looks fabulous! Zis suggested gray blending instead of dyeing my roots. Now, my hair looks fab, I won't have to get my hair done as often and it will grow out looking so natural! Rather than 'doing something' to my hair, Zia sees the desired final result, then puts it together and creates it! You have great ability, girl!
