Came here with my son for the first time and what a nightmare. I explained exactly what I wanted and she did what she wanted to do. My son has curly hair and all he wanted was a clean up. My son was in the chair for less than 5 min. We were very disappointed and she didn’t seem to care when I question her about the cut. We left that place and went to another to get my son’s hair cut fixed. Don’t waste your money here.

Friendly stylist, great haircut. Would not honor my coupon. Said the code was not accepted in the area. If a national chain is only going to honor coupons in certain locations, they should put those locations on the coupon. Time of payment is not the time to find out; it was too late for me to go elsewhere - perhaps that was the plan all along

Ally was not there anymore so Paula cut my hair. I sat down and she asked how I wanted it cut. I told her like I tell everyone else use your creativity. She did a great job. 👏 I get lots of compliments. Will use Paula from now on.
