- CKColin KwiatkowskiDec 23, 20255.0I've been coming here for several years now and have always had a great experience. The staff are friendly and provide quality haircuts. For the first couple of years, I would get my hair cut by whoever was available, and I was always extremely happy with the results. Now, I usually request Nikki as my hairstylist, and the service continues to be outstanding!

- GRG RNov 18, 20255.0Nikki is amazing. I always go to her because I barely have to say anything and my hair always turns out great. It’s such a relief to have a stylist I can trust to do a good job every single time. She’s very talented, really experienced, and easy to talk to. I feel like I’m getting a high-quality haircut without the high price, which I really appreciate. I honestly wouldn’t want to go to anyone else. Thanks, Nikki, for always taking such good care of me!
