- VVValbonaSep 13, 20251.0Absolutely bad, I wanted a simple haircut with some layers and this is what I got. Never stepping there again.
- DKDebbie KlymkowJan 11, 20245.0Great cut, did it just the way I wanted
- SLStanley LichwalaDec 21, 20235.0Danielle is my go to stylist because she does great work!
- JBJeff BoulericeJul 22, 20194.0Online check-in is great and helps reduce the wait time. Haircut quality and staff friendliness seems hit or miss... One visit can be great and the next not so much. My most recent visit left me with an OK haircut, but she seemed in a rush to get me in and out. The razor was actually pulling out my hair on a few occasions because she was going so fast.
