The atmosphere was calm and clean. Maggie did a great job listening to what I wanted and executed a perfect cut. I had very long hair and…
I absolutely love going to this salon and seeing Elijah! He absolutely kills it every time and his customers service is unmatched. I always feel so incredibly comfortable and leave feeling confident! I can not recommend this salon more! Absolutely adore my hair!
Great atmosphere, professional, kind and best of all the best hair cut I’ve ever had. This is my second time here and I’ve been welcomed by kind people always with smiles. I love this place!
Jaidan is THE BEST!!!!! Literally trust him to do anything with my hair. He is the sweetest and most accommodating too!! Loveee him and his work 🫶🏼
Had a wonderful experience with Violet!!! She was incredibly kind and did an exceptional job with my haircut, love the layers she gave me. Violet also gave me great advice with my hair-care, answered all of my questions and was overall so welcoming. Would highly recommend booking an appointment with her!
