We brought our two autistic children here for haircuts, and our stylist Marissa was absolutely amazing. She was patient, kind, and really understood how to make the kids feel comfortable. She took her time, listened, and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Marissa truly understood the assignment and took care of business! We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend her to any parents looking for someone who genuinely cares.

My son went in for a basic haircut before his senior pictures on Monday. After he wasn't consulted with what he wanted this time, beyond how short he wanted his sides, his hair was cut much shorter than he'd have asked on top. When I called to talk to the manager, who apparently was the one who cut his hair, she wouldn't listen to my concerns and argued that she did what was appropriate. We won't be back.
