I always get a great cut and have been to a few different locations, but Ray (I think that was her name) really took time to find out exactly what I was looking for and even educated me on the difference between "feathered" vs "choppy" what I thought was choppy is actually feathered. Because of this I had the best cut ever and will definitely be coming to this location from now on.

We were there for an hour and only got two people done. They like to just walk around. TWO freaking people in one hour. Come on now.

They seem a bit confused on customer service. Also, the loud stylist lady smacking her gum while yelling made the wait pretty unbearable.
