The sign on the door says 8 AM. I sat out front until 10 after eight and no one ever showed up. I drove 30 minutes to that location because of the time it opened.

Wouldn’t go here again. Don’t know the name of lady but she was sloppy and lazy in her job.

I’ve been coming to this location for a while and always requested the same stylist. I went in recently and was told they no longer worked there. Alexis cut my hair and did a great job. I’m very particular about my haircut and she checked in several times throughout the cut to make sure I was happy with everything. I’ll definitely be back to see her!

Ben here several times over the past year, and every single time it's a different person. Just received one of the worst haircuts ever that is uneven and rough from the extreme rubbing of clippers against my head. No care for trimmings getting on or in my shirt because the cape was taken off in the middle to trim the neckline then put back on without cleaning and flipping other trimmings under the cape which I had to dust off once done. I knew this was going to be a mistake before I even sat down due to lackluster people skills that weren't quite friendly, but at the same time almost seemed passive aggressive. I try not to seem rude by refusing service from someone but I don't think that's going to happen anymore. Will not return.

Horrible!! I went there 2 weeks ago Wednesday morning around 8:30. No personality. She didn't look me in the eye, didn't introduce herself or even smile. She did the worst job cutting my hair. It's not even. Very disappointed. Don't go there!!
