The staff went above and beyond to ensure my experience would be one to remember. Couldn’t be happier with how my stylist Zac slayed my hair! Front desk was amazing and everyone was very knowledgeable about Aveda and any questions I had.

I have been going to Lisa for almost 20 years and cannot rave enough about her and the Craig McQueen team. I do not trust any other salon for my highlights and haircuts.
