- JMJosiah MangiameliDec 25, 20251.0They gave my son a bowl cut
- CCCharles CurticeDec 12, 20253.0Really messed up my hair, and I was quite irritated by it, but they were very professional in handling a refund and even offered to give me my next cut free of charge. Was a one star experience, but I can appreciate Jennifer's professionalism and customer care.
- KGKanika GakharDec 3, 20251.0I went to donate my hair today and literally couldn’t have gotten a worse hair cut First of all, the lady cut wayyy more than the 12” we had agreed on (she cut over 16”!!!) Then she gave me such an uneven hair cut When I asked her to add layers and shape the bottom in a U, she rudely dismissed me saying that’s exactly what she did In the end, she didn’t even give me a bag to carry my hair back in — just saying she can’t find one. When she looked again, she found a bag and just slipped it to me. I’m so disappointed I spent days doing research on salons that cut hair for donations and this is what I ended up with. I even called before going to confirm that they wouldn’t just chop off my hair and that they would actually give me a proper hair cut of my choice once the donation hair was cut off.
- MCMatías Ezequiel ColottoOct 19, 20254.0Efficient and fast, but the price for a men's haircut is somewhat expensive even if my cut is very simple (clipper cut, same length all over). Feels like I am subsidizing the service for those who have more complex haircuts. I should probably just buy my own clipper and do it on my own at this price.
