- KPKamini PatelJan 31, 20265.0My son got his hair cut and hairstylist Janet did an amazing job!!! She really listened and took her time on the type of style he wanted. I was really impressed with this hair cut. As most of the other hair cuts at other great clips weren’t exactly what he wanted. This time he loved it a lot! We will sure be going back to Janet.
- RJRobert JasicaJan 29, 20265.0Great place, wonderful service very friendly and professional very clean. Strongly recommend
- JAJacob AnsaraJan 16, 20265.0Zivana always does a great job. She listens to what I want and always makes it happen! Ever since Zivana cut my hair the first time, I won’t go to anyone else. 10/10 all around experience with her!
- DDDanielaJan 16, 20265.0My husband and my son-in-law both get regular haircuts here, and they always have a great experience. Stylist Zivana is the best — very pleasant, a great listener, and she always does an excellent job with their haircuts. The atmosphere in the salon is welcoming, clean, and very nice. Highly recommend!
