Absolutely terrible. I asked the lady to cut my hair all the same length and she cut the back only. She didn't even take out the bobbie pins, or cut the side of the front. She cut my hair in under 5 minutes. How does this add up to $20. Awful experience!! Do better please!

Leann was amazing! She knew exactly what I was looking to get done and was extremely sweet! I always get a little worried/nervous about getting my haircut since it’s so curly, but with her it was so fun!
