I experienced very discriminatory and unprofessional behavior during my recent visit. The staff member refused to touch my hair properly and gave me a very poor haircut. She also did not do my moustache as requested. This is not how customers should be treated at a salon. I am extremely disappointed and concerned that someone with such behavior is being hired to serve customers. You can review the camera footage to verify what happened, as I do not remember her name. I don’t know Y I paid $24 for this kind of. I Would have go to my fav Brenda in Downtown, with Quality of respect and good behavior. I am stupid, I think! Feeling very regret!

Never again, uneven lengths in my hair and completely unsatisfied with the cut. You’re better off spending the extra money at a salon, also some artists need to learn about scissor safety considering I was poked in the face by a pair.
