I brought my nine-year-old son there for a haircut. I showed the Hairstylist a photo of a basic child haircut. She glanced at the photo and rudely shooed me away, saying I know I know I know what to do you don’t have to show me photo. I’m a professional... Before I could stop her, she attempted to give him a skin fade and removed all of the hair from the side of his head. I had no choice, but to let her continue or remove all of the hair on his head. She continued to attempt a fade. She clearly had no idea what she was doing. The fade is crooked and uneven all around his head. He looks like an eraser head. I was so disgusted when I left. I want to throw up every time I look at his head. It’s going to be two months before I can get a Qualified hairstylist to fix it. I can’t believe I paid $25 and I was pressured for a $5 dollar tip. I will never ever go there for anything ever again. I wish I didn’t pay and just walked out, but that wouldn’t have helped because we’re still stuck with that disastrous haircut.

I always go to Shalini for my haircut. She takes her time, is precise, and understands exactly what type of haircut I am looking for. She is an amazing stylist!
