I had my haircut done by Yesenia and she did an awesome job. She took her time to make sure everything was even and exactly how I wanted it. The fade turned out clean and the style fits me perfectly — it’s honestly the best cut I’ve had in a while. She’s friendly, professional, and knows what she’s doing. Definitely recommend asking for Yesenia if you stop in here!

Not happy at all with my Son's haircut. I asked for a little trim. And he ended up looking like a character from Dumb and Dumber. The hairstylist was not friendly. She managed to injury both ears with scissors and didn't even apologize or mention it. We will be going to a different location and making sure the lady never cuts our childrens hair again.

Excellent haircut, but the game played to get a discount coupon on line is irritating and boarders on false advertising.
