Ashley did a superb job on my hair. She didn't rush. Was attentive to detail. The young ladies there are polite, courteous and at times humorous. This is my second experience with this salon and I am definitely going back. I think I finally found my stylist. Thank you!

Adriauna does very well with children's hair cuts. I had took my one year old to her and she was very patient and kind. I even go in for myself not ever disappointed with the outcome!
