- BFBlake FulghamAug 19, 20255.0The staff here are truly wonderful. Pascha, in particular, always stands out as one of my favorite people. She's not only kind and caring but also a talented baker—her pound cake is simply delicious. (Just a little secret—don’t tell her I shared that!)
- BBBrianAug 15, 20255.0Sharon was a pro! I checked in online, and walked in the door and was greeted right away. Sharon sat me down, and cut my hair in about 6 minutes, and it was perfect! Give her a raise. Thank you for the great clips experience Sharon! I'll be back.
