Very unprofessional experience. I checked it at 5 pm, they told me its an hour wait because the system didn't allow me to do it online . Showed up at 6 pm.. ahh we are closed despite the fact that my name was still on the waiting list. The lady could've said we are not taking any customers as its getting closer to the closing time. Wasting my time.... I'll look for another chain to do business with.

Did not honor the online check in queue. Someone else who came later was allowed to go first saying they came earlier but did not check in. Will never go again.

Consistently decent haircuts at good price. They keep notes on type of cut, preferences, blade #, etc. Their app let's you check in online in advance, minimizing any wait.
