- NANaga ArunNov 3, 20251.0Will I ever return for a haircut? No never and neither should anyone else The prices are insane, the service is terrible, the waiting is just next level nonsense. How are they even running this place? Such bad haircut that I regret so much even getting one done. Save yourself and get it from a place that has better service and stylists that actually know how to cut and style, also listen to you.
- SSSakshiNov 3, 20251.0The worst hair cut ever, staff is so rude and the time waiting there is just insane. Even when I check in when I start from home I have to wait 30 mins to even get a hair cut on a not busy weekday. The ladies there do not have any experience with hair cut, cut more than what I told and just didn’t get to what I wanted and still paid $26 which is absurd for less than 10 mins sitting on the chair and 30 mins waiting. I would rather not cut my hair again if this is the last place on earth open. Save yourself and find a better place for haircut
- AAAdam ArnoldNov 2, 20255.0Got the exact haircut I wanted
- NKNoah KingAug 31, 20254.0Alex cut my hair before a party. Great service, he asked for my input all throughout the haircut. I'm veryhappy with the result.
- MMMiraAug 13, 20251.0This was by far the worst salon experience I’ve ever had. The man rushed through my haircut in less than five minutes, and the result was terrible. More importantly, I noticed a clear difference in how he treated customers: warm and friendly to white customers, but cold and dismissive to me, an Asian customer. This is unacceptable and discriminatory, and I am considering filing a formal complaint with the appropriate authorities.
