- CWCarol WarnerJan 31, 20265.0Always excellent haircuts and conversation. Great eye candy too.
- DTDan TechJan 21, 20265.0The people here are always very wonderful. They go above and beyond and I'm always super happy with my haircut. I tell him exactly what I'm looking for and they give me exactly what I need. I absolutely love it.
- POPolina OlexenkoJan 19, 20265.0Stopped in January 14th right after opening. The stylist was very friendly and accommodating. I don't remember the name, but she wore a salmon pink top, and said she had just moved to MKE from Michigan. I wear a reverse bob which was cut with expert precision. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
- EBEmily BurkholderJan 17, 20261.0I was happy with my previous haircuts, but since the change in ownership a few months ago, I have *repeatedly* shown up at a normal time to find them closed during normal hours. I don't have time for this. I did email customer service and got a canned response from corporate and a snide response from the franchisee.
- AEAshlyn ErpenbachJan 8, 20263.0The staff was very nice and I had a good coupon to use, but I was dissatisfied with my haircut. I asked for a trim to get rid of split ends, and said I thought that was 1-2 inches. I also asked my stylist Bree for her opinion. She cut maybe an inch off where my hair was thinning in the back. After leaving, I noticed that there are still many split ends in my hair and I can't tell a difference in my hair length. I was too socially shy to request her to cut more, so I guess that's on me. However, I was still disappointed and will go to another salon to fix it because I'm too embarrassed to go back. You do get what you pay for. If you want a quick, easy trim - this is definitely the place to go and I do still recommend it.
