Clara at the Burlingame location is the best employee you have!!! I was very upset to hear that you took away some of her schedule. When she is not working I will not get a haircut at your location without her. Please allow her to work more days than Monday -Wednesday. It makes it very difficult with my schedule. She is a 10 out of 10 employee and deserves to be there 5 days a week, so each one of your customers can enjoy her work!!
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
