Haircutter in the MeadowI’ve had my hair done here several times. Sachiko is the best, she is very friendly and does great work! Highly recommend!!
Angie Beauty SalonAll I have to say is that Angie ❤️ is the best and I’m truly happy with my hair. I haven’t dye my hair in probably a year or so and it came out beautiful. She gave me the blonde that I wanted , just the way I wanted it, and I highly recommend her. if you’re looking for a good place reasonable prices and a kind…
Haircutter in the MeadowSachiko always makes sure I have a wonderful experience. From the moment we start to the end of my appointment, I feel comfortable, lighter and in good hands. She has also really helped me understand my hair and what works best.
Haircutter in the MeadowI have been going to Sachiko for years. She is the best thing to ever happen to my hair! I have recommended her to several people, both female and male and they all love her as much as I do. There's a reason she's often booked but she's absolutely worth the wait!
