- JWJason WellsFeb 21, 20265.0Zakeia cut my hair perfectly....she was also very nice and pleasant.....she took her time and made sure my hair style was exactly what I wanted. Very professional. Thanks again!
- DSDonna SeidFeb 21, 20265.05 stars for hair dresser named THU. Very nice, and great conversations with her. Have used her for my hair dresser for the past 6 months (or more?) ..and will continue to use her as long as she is there. =-)
- SNSimran NandwaniFeb 20, 20261.0They are very inconsistent. My husband got a haircut recently and he is very unhappy with it. His bangs are slanted. The left side is long and the right side is short. Wouldn’t recommend having just anyone cut your hair there. You can choose someone that you know won’t mess up.
- CACarlos ArrecisFeb 18, 20261.0I call and ask if there's a wait time. I say great I'm on my way. It took less that 10 min to get there they have a sign say went to lunch. If your going to close for lunch have your hours listed or tell customers your closing for lunch. I left work on my lunch time to get a hair cut.
- CNCJ NavaltaFeb 6, 20265.0I recently moved nearby and let my hair grow too long. I was worried walking in would take a long while but they had me checked in as a 1st time customer and seated within 10 min. The barber who helped me Mohammed, was very kind and helped cut my hair to presentable and good within 15 min. I plan on going again, hopefully sooner rather than later.
