- BVBecky VoelzSep 22, 20255.0Stylist was very friendly and made me feel welcome. I was on a knee scooter and it didn't bother her at all.
- JRjeremy richmondSep 16, 20251.0“I came here expecting a simple haircut, but what I witnessed was very disappointing. The managers were openly disrespectful to employees, showing clear favoritism and even making inappropriate comments. On top of that, I saw staff being forced to do tasks that clearly weren’t part of their job, while management stood by. No one should be treated that way at work. As a customer, it made me extremely uncomfortable, and I won’t be returning until this location treats its employees with the respect they deserve.”

- JCJohn CollinsJul 21, 20255.0Went in there for a needed haircut and when ever she would ask " how I wanted something done?" Most of my answers were "Use your best judgement." Because I do not know much about that. She exceeded my expectations and did a really good job. Keep up the good work Tina.
