Amazing - Ayeda is simply the best - been coming to her for the last twenty years. My hair has gone from black to Grey in this time and Ayeda has been there all this time.

I’m very disappointed with my experience at this salon. Their website clearly advertised a discount, and the nearest location showed that it was accepting the promotion. Based on that information, we drove a long distance to visit this location.
However, once we arrived, the staff told us they would not honor the discount. This was extremely frustrating and misleading. Promotions are meant to attract customers and build trust, but misleading advertising like this does the opposite and can seriously damage a business’s reputation.
If a location does not participate in a promotion, it should be clearly excluded on the website. Customers should not have to waste time and travel based on incorrect or unclear information. Very disappointing.

Tyler gave me a haircut and I loved how there was an attention to detail & the efforts/thought that he put in the cut. He has been in business for 24 years & is professional. Would highly recommend.
