I’ve been going to Jhyro for a couple months now and every cut has been the best. He always takes his time and makes sure everything comes out clean exactly how I want it. The vibe is always good and he makes the whole experience comfortable and easy. I definitely recommend getting a haircut from him if you want someone consistent and skilled.

My experience with Ellie has always been 5/5 stars. She’s not only great at what she does but is always super friendly and accommodating during each visit. She gives great fades and layers always creating a consistent and effortless cut. I couldn’t be happier with Ellie as my stylist.
