- MKMeg KDec 16, 20251.0Please don’t ever get your child’s haircut from a lady named Nina. She is the worst hairdresser. She has a lot of attitude for no reason and doesn’t even know how to do her job. I would really request their management not to keep such an unprofessional hair dresser. Unfortunately, my child got a minor cut behind the ear during the haircut and this shouldn’t happen, especially with kids. We are so disappointed.
