I unfortunately received the worst haircut of my life here. Due there being a line of people waiting for haircuts after me, the lady who cut my hair disregarded my preferences and hurriedly chopped off several inches with scissors before calling it a day.

You get what you pay for ): at one point when the stylist was cutting my hair the shears she was using didn't even cut- completely dull and she blamed it on being left handed???. I told her where I wanted my bangs to hit once dry multiple times - she cut them there when they were wet leading to a much shorter length when dry. At least she complimented me on how I can French braid my hair back by myself, now I will have to braid my hair off my face for the foreseeable future because of how short and butchered my bangs are.

Great haircut and service for a reasonable price. Very friendly and professional stylists and I was impressed at how clean the salon is. An important note, they are cash only. You should try them out!

Great service for the price! When I go during the day there usually aren’t many people so the wait time is very short. They keep track of the previous haircuts so they will know what you usually get and provide a friendly service! They offer specials throughout the year to offer a great deal for haircuts!
