I wanted a shorter hair cut and Andrea suggested a short layered cut so my thinning wouldn’t be so noticeable. I am very pleased with the results. I can still have multiple styles. I will return for future touch ups.

Andrea, is a very professional and beautiful woman. Andrea tended to not only my hair needs, but, that of 2 other clients. I did not mind paying for the services that Andrea rendered. God knows I needed everything I paid, and would gladly do it again if my hair ever becomes as it once was...YIKES!...LOL. Andrea's…

Andrea has the skills and talent for cutting, styles and design! Love this salon!!
Warm and friendly atmosphere filled with great energy.
I was pleasantly treated and handled with Care when it was time for my new transformation into a pixie cut.
This is my new hair Home 💇🏽♀️ 💕
I would like to say thank you! I called and ask do you take walk-ins, she said what do you want. I said cut and curl but I have a fro she politely said come on.. The atmosphere was great, very professional and my hair was LAID (done very well). Let's not forget about my eyebrows they were waxed and cute.. She's very good at what she does and she makes you feel welcomed, a non judgemental zone and it was a great experience. Again, Thank you!
Andrea did an amazing job on my hair! I came in wanting a bold cherry red color, and she absolutely delivered. The color is vibrant, the cut is beautiful, and she even surprised me with a peekaboo color that made me love it even more.
She was professional, took her time, and made sure everything came out exactly how I wanted. I left the salon feeling confident and so happy with my hair. I got so many compliments already! If you're looking for someone who truly knows what they're doing, I definitely recommend booking with Andrea. Thank you for making my birthday hair everything I wanted!

You are truly a real babydoll. You said what you wanted and sat quietly with a smile letting me create.
It is so important to understand the steps to being enhanced. It comes with patience confidence and trust. You gave me all of that, so I had to serve. Continue to be upfront and real for your blessings 😂Enjoy your birthday.

I am so excited about my experience at Situation's Hair & Nail Salon. The service was beyond my expectation. I found the salon on Instagram. I called and got an appointment the same day. I am use to going to hair schools to get my hair done. I was elevated, excited, and well pleased with the service I received. That hair treatment with the stream is the answer and the solution. My hair looked and felt so good. I told her my hair does not hold curls. I am excited to say not only did my hair hold curls all day; I woke up the next morning with a head full of curls! I didn't even use rollers. I will definitely be back.
