Been a regular for many years and have been getting the front bangs beautifully done until this last visit in October. The stylist was impatient, first she cut it all the way into eyes, I asked her if she can shorten it a bit to the brows, she goes and cuts all the way to mid forehead and chopped unevenly and defends it that it’s what I asked. Thinking if I will be visiting again, if so definitely not that stylist.
Ps: I gave her nice tip after all this.

In 2025, they don't offer the option to book an appointment just one day in advance. You can't get appointment neither thru phone nor website. Imagine the level of bureaucracy and "customer care" orientation lol.
When I asked if there was any alternative, the "lady" cut me off. What's worse was the incredibly rude way I was treated. Robin spoke to me on the phone as if we were soldiers in the army for 20 years. Ma'am, I'm not your friend, have some basic courtesy when talking to a stranger on the phone. Just because your system is outdated, both technologically and in its customer service, that doesn't give you the right to speak to people so ignorantly. Save that tone for your family at home, not for customers.
I like Beck. She does a great haircut. But between the lack of booking flexibility and the disgusting customer service, it completely kills any desire to go back.

Passed by late this morning. The people working there did not even look at me. Since I needed to know when of if they could see me, I stayed. Once they did decide to look at me, I was ignored. Walked out.
