- DDDerek DuncanNov 14, 20255.0Janet cut my hair and was very charming and took extra care to follow my notes and tidy up details. She was very accommodating and made me feel welcome. Thanks for the pleasant visit.
- DADanielle ArvilaNov 5, 20255.0I got a great bob from Sara!
- JEJason EisfeldtNov 2, 20251.0Random hairs all over my head that she missed. Along with another worker acting like she was on crack singing some Miley Cyrus song. WILL NOT BE WASTING MY TIME OR MONEY THERE EVER AGAIN! Unprofessional beyond description!!!!!
- KMKimberly McQuillinOct 29, 20255.0Very friendly place
- WHWrenn HinmanSep 29, 20251.0Embarrassingly bad at cutting any kind of curl. If you’re not a man or a woman with a pixie cut AND pin straight hair, don’t waste 40 dollars on choppy hair. Have yet to meet anyone with a halfway decent experience here.
