Very sad and unfortunate experience, my fiancé and I walked in to get our haircut tonight and there were at least 8 stylists working tonight. We sat while they all stared at us and not said a word. Very disappointing considering the fact my family spend thousands of dollars on their hair here. I’ll find my business elsewhere

Mariah, my hairstylist is absolutely wonderful and the salon is beautiful. I’m never disappointed with the salon. I highly recommend it.
Courtney is fantastic! She sees you 1 on 1 and listens to what you want in a cut & highlighting colors. Love her! Love my hair!!
Great hair cut but I drove to this place and had an outlined appointment and the person who made the appointment was very very confident and then I get done with the haircut and I get looked at like I have 8 heads. Its like y. I just didn't feel like I was welcome. I personally didn't get a vibe like I can be a regular client here.
Arrived ten minutes early for my son's appointment. Still had to wait on the stylist. She didn't listen to what he wanted. $40 for a hack job, and I even gave her a 20% tip which was TOO generous. Had to just buzz it all off later. Won't be returning!
My loyalty has been won by Matti, and she didn't even have to try; she's just that good. Incredibly talented, quick, and has genuine passion for her craft. The staff as a whole are welcoming and skilled. I ask for silent appointments, because in my experience, getting my hair done can be very exhausting and…
Courtney was super nice and did an amazing transformation on me hair. Was worried but super happy.
