We will continue coming here as long as Dawn is here. Got energetic impatient kids who can't sit still? Dawn is your girl. She is patient, funny and does a great job. We always get compliments on my boy's hair. The salon is clean and everyone is super friendly. Cant recommend it enough. We used to travel a hour to get my kids hair done at a speciality place, it is so great to have found a great stylist and place closer to home. Thanks!

The Brentwood location is where I usually go. KATIE is an amazing hair technician! She gives me the best haircut EVERY TIME!!! There's so many talented stylists, but KATIE is my favorite! I'm always greated as soon as I walk in the door and the wait usually isn't that long, except for me, because I wait for KATIE! Nice welcoming and comfortable environment there, also.

I came in asking for a simple mid fade and left with one of the worst haircuts I’ve ever had. The sides and back were completely uneven and not blended at all. I asked the stylist to fix it, but she clearly didn’t have the skill to do a proper fade. This isn’t the first bad experience I’ve had here, but I decided to give them another chance — big mistake. The quality here is totally inconsistent, mostly misses, and now I have to pay someone else to fix it. Definitely not coming back.
