I just got my haircut and beard trim here, and I had an amazing experience! The stylist (I wish I asked her name) was incredibly attentive, patient, and made sure to accommodate all my needs. She genuinely cared about how I wanted my hair and beard to look, and the result was perfect. I walked out feeling confident and refreshed. Definitely coming back again- thank you for the great service!

Don’t go here. Very bad customer service. Nothing said show coupon ahead and then they didn’t accept. Rude! Will not be back.

Checked in on the app, 13 minute wait, perfect time for me to get there. When I walked in and check the app the time had jumped to 26 minutes, not a big deal I’ll just go pick up my stuff from target real quick and come back. I ask to make sure the 26 minutes was accurate, I was told no, the wait is 108 minutes. Obviously I’m not waiting that long so I left. When I checked my phone again on my way home the wait time was 18 minutes. I don’t know who to believe but none of this is right. Highly disappointed.

I just finished getting a wonderful haircut from Robyn who did exactly what I wanted. When I first walked in, I had three Stylists look up and say hello. They all seemed happy to be there. I hadn’t figured out how to check in ahead of time, but it was seen right away. I love that they have a senior discount. I will definitely be back to see Robyn in the future. Thank you for a great experience.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
