They techniques she uses are up to date and gives your hair the edge others don't have. Worth the money. The process did take a longer than usual but I…
Lokal is by far the best salon! Make your appointment with Cruz or Cindy ASAP! These are two of the RGV's up and coming hair stylists. They are skilled professionals who have been trained by Alina, the queen of hair.

Hair color was not what I requested. When contacting them back the very next day to schedule an appointment to fix my hair to get it to how I originally wanted they were not willing to work with me and said they would have to charge an additional $250 on top of the $300+ I already paid. I waited a week for the owner…

This salon is a 10/10! Clean. Professional. The friendliest salon by far, snacks and drinks served while waiting AND while you get your hair done. I will never let anyone else touch my hair but Aline, and never let anyone else wax my brows but Sandy!
