- DTDonnaLyn TincherOct 6, 20255.0Service is fast. Suggest online check-in. But, not required. The stylists are cheerful. They ask and listen to you for preference in cut and style. This location is my preference. I've used one other location and was extremely unhappy with the stylists cut. Only used it as my location was closed for renovations.
