- KLKathleen LutzowOct 31, 20255.0I came into the salon literally looking like Frankenstein. I had just gotten out of the hospital, after being in for 3 weeks due to cancer surgery. My hair was a matted mess. Hannah and Samantha offered to comb through it but it would have taken days. So I asked for a pixie cut. Which they did with no problem. But it was the genuine empathy and caring these two young ladies showed to me made me cry and was just so unexpected. I can't really put into words how beautiful and important this visit was to my self esteem. I am forever grateful for these two beautiful souls.
