- ASAmy Sullivan3 days ago1.0An absolutely terrible experience! The person who cut my hair should never have been allowed scissors. A simple trim on long hair shouldn’t be all uneven and look like a child cut their hair. Extremely disappointed and had to pay an actual hairstylist to fix it. Please save yourself the grief and go to a reputable hair salon.

- CSChris SDec 18, 20255.0I've been going to this location for 7 years now. Amanda has done an amazing job every single time I get my haircut! I love her energy, the love she has for her family, and her professionalism!
- CSChantal StoneDec 7, 20255.0The three ladies that have helped me so far Natasha ,Jeanna and Miss Jayden.... they're so kind and gentle with me I will come here again and again and again if I can give them more than five stars I definitely would
- VEV Emberson-FoxcroftDec 2, 20251.0Complete and total regret! My son and I both had haircuts here. I showed a picture of what I usually do for my son and told them I wanted it longer on the sides and sideburns. My son gave her the picture when it was time to sit down and she said she didn't need it then went on to absolutely blow it! She shaved the sides and back way too short, and barely left a sideburn. Then styled it so badly it looked like an institutionalized haircut/style. Not even close to what we asked for! As for me, my stylist asked if she could take off about 2 inches and ended up taking 6-7 inches off (after I had taken a long time growing it long). When I pointed out how short it was, she argued that no it wasn't short, that she kept the length. Sadly my length was gone and I was staring at it on the floor with deep regret. Disappointing thing is I've been here a few times with other hairdressers and it was fine! So upset that this time was terrible! 😕
