- LBLaura BrantnerNov 25, 20255.0Melissa is who I always have cut my hair at this location. I've been coming here for years. I moved to the other side of town, but it is worth the drive for me to have my hair cut by a very friendly, and professional stylist who always does an amazing job! The salon is always clean and with online check in the wait is minimal.
- PPPaigeNov 23, 20251.0STAY AWAY unless you want a fungal or bacterial infection. I was there today and watched them service several clients without sanitizing their equipment. I reported to the health department and would suggest everyone else to as well.
