Always get the same great service with kind, caring, knowledgeable people! They are great at what they do and I will continue to go there for my haircuts. Wish I remembered the name of the stylist I go to because she's wonderful and does my hair perfectly every time. :)

Got a haircut, mostly like I wanted paid and left.
One of the other stylists was overtly wearing drag and going around with a stereotypical faux feminine demeanor. If that is what you want... ok. Not for me though. As far as I could tell not trans... a man in drag.
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.
