I’ve been going here for a year. Never had a problem. My haircut is pretty straightforward. Good staff. Ability to check in lets you know when to leave for the shop. Good price/value. You can get $5 off coupon at Fair Lawn Diner, which was why I started going there.

Worst haircut I ever got. Upon leaving the shop, I went to my car to put my glasses on so I could see my haircut and it was so bad that I went back in to have her fix it and it still came out terrible as she doesn’t know how to follow instructions from customers

Unfortunate to rate so low because it's very close and convenient but some of the stylists just won't listen to how you want it cut. Other stylists are good but it's really a dice role who is in/available.
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.
