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…

Started getting Mom's haircut here. Very friendly and patient group of hairstylists. Mom enjoys the short wait conversations that occur with other patrons. I highly recommend this location. Fast and friendly. Probably best to make an appointment, although walk-ins are welcome.

We found this salon by accident and I’m glad we did! Mattilynn did a PHENOMENAL job on getting the black out of my daughter’s hair! She was very upfront about what to expect and did a very thorough job. The owners along with the rest of the stylists are so kind, attentive and make you feel at home. We could go…

Amy at Sizzor Shak is great & has cut my hair for years . She's attentive to my requests and is able to do a great and quick job, keeps you occupied in conversation the entire time. It’s hard to find someone that does it the way I like it! I will continue to request Amy for my next haircut. Thanks Amy

After an attempt at cutting my own hair, long story… I was able to come in within minutes of calling and Brittany was able to save my hair, and make it look amazing after the hack job I did. Thank you Brittany!!!
