- JJJay JohnsonJan 22, 20265.0I have some extra considerations due to my oxygen concentrator. Mai was awesome helping to keep hoses out ot the way and providing an outstanding hair cut.
- LKLinda KwongFeb 3, 20225.0They practice social distancing. I usually check in online when I get a parking spot. This gets me in quickly. I haven’t picked a favorite stylist. Some of the stylist take the time to trim my hair properly and some others try and quickly cut my hair. I know which ones are dedicated to their craft and which ones simply don’t care. It just depends who I get when I get there. A ladies haircut cost $22. With $4 tip, it totaled $26. This is quite reasonable. It shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg because my hair is thin. There’s not much hair to cut! Lol!
