Happy clients make us go bananas!

Gina Brandt

I have taken my children and Grand children to Monkey Dooz since it opened! We have gone to locations in Yakima, Kennewick, Richland, Eagle and Riverside, CA! We are wild about Monkey Dooz!!

Mariah Skugstad

This was one of my favorite places when I was younger!!! I loved getting all pampered & dolled up, excellent customer service & overall an excellent experience.

Michelle Elliott

My daughter had her birthday party at Monkey Dooz and absolutely loved the experience. She now has a daughter and told me the other day how she wished so badly that it was here again for her daughter to experience the love glitter and up-do’s that she had. In fact, my daughter became a hair stylist because she wanted to give to others what she felt you gave to her at age 8.

Heather Blake

I took my daughters to Monkey Dooz for haircuts, updooz, and for their Birthday parties. Twenty years later my girls still speak about the wonderful memories and how it helped inspire them to feel better about themselves!

Our Founder

Meet Ms. Monkey Dooz!

Tired of tears and tantrums at haircut time? Karla Vandenberg was too. In 2001, she turned her son’s haircut horror into a magical kingdom for kids: Monkey Dooz. More than just a salon, we’re a place where little ones feel like superstars. From princess pampering to superhero styles, we build confidence one snip at a time.

But our mission goes beyond beauty. We’re planting seeds of kindness and conservation, teaching kids about our planet and supporting causes in need. With accolades like Enterprising Woman of the Year and a spot on the Martha Stewart show, we’re proud to be more than a salon. We’re a movement empowering kids to shine bright and be themselves.
