Please don’t get a haircut from Cynthia. She was very rude and has no patience to understand customer preference. I went 30 mins before closing time on Sunday and she took me in for hair cut. She didn’t understood what I wanted and left my hair wet and refused to blow dry completely when asked. Looks like she was in total hurry and spoiled my haircut. I’m very disappointed with her service and never going to this location again. I recommend not to get a haircut from her.

I went to this store because I received a discount card in the mail. I was in & out of the place in 15 minutes. As much as I like this store, I would prefer to receive discounts to stores closer to where I live (Wethersfield or Windsor, CT).

Been coming here for years, today was skipped over in line despite having checked in and greeted at the door. Terrible service. Staff was to busy chit chatting and making lunch plans to pay attention to what they were doing. Time to find a new place I guess
