- TStina sabunaniOct 14, 20255.0Me and my son walked in at 5:57pm on a Tuesday evening and the salon was about to close but the ladies working here were very accommodating and took my son to do his hair cut. I really appreciate them to do what they did at the last minute and gave my son a very nice haircut. The ladies working here were Jodie and Sophia. So a big shout out to both of them for doing such a great job.
