Let me tell you we moved down here in 2018 …March to be exact. You know when you remove you have to find the new mechanic the new hair stylist etc. I found Niko at Hair Cutter in the Meadow! I was sick of jumping from barber to barber and was coming home one day. I saw a van in the Harmon Meadows parking Marketing…

Sachiko always makes sure I have a wonderful experience. From the moment we start to the end of my appointment, I feel comfortable, lighter and in good hands. She has also really helped me understand my hair and what works best.

I have been going to Sachiko for years. She is the best thing to ever happen to my hair! I have recommended her to several people, both female and male and they all love her as much as I do. There's a reason she's often booked but she's absolutely worth the wait!

After pregnancy and getting a bad haircut that left my hair stuck in growth, I was hoping to find a good hairdresser in the area. I read wonderful reviews about Sachiko and trusted her. She not only styled my hair back to life but her hands are of an angel 👼 and since then, my hair has been growing normally again…
