Their place is very cute and neat! They welcomed me with such a smile! They are very friendly and you can trust them blindly!! I traveled far to this place to get a haircut. It's all worth it. I recommend 100%

Stephanie Shannon - My hairstylist

First of all I was late for my appointment and she welcomed me with such a lovely smile though it was her end of the day. She patiently listened and she grasped immediately what I was expecting which I never got from my previous places. After a reallyyy long time I had a wonderful haircut and I felt so much satisfied while leaving! She was too sweet and I felt more comfortable.. she did a great job thank you Stephanie for such a wonderful work!

Requested style: Curtain bangs with layers

Stylist: Stephanie Shannon“

“I love the braids. Karen is a lovely person and very gentle on your hair. Very quick and very affordable.“

“Lisa could handle my thick curly hair better than any other hair salon I’ve been to. I love how she shaped it and made it much more healthy as well.“

“Love her!! She makes you very comfortable and gets right down to business. Service is also quick and efficient. Today is my second appointment because I don’t want to go to another person for a wax! I had a bad experience (my own fault) getting waxed in 2019 so this was a great reintroduction. My body is extremely sensitive so this is definitely my go-to place for now“

“I'm growing my lob out, Elizabeth was able to give me the 90s layers that I was hoping for while keeping the length. Finally found the hairstylist that gets it! Ahhhhhhhhh thank you Elizabeth!!!“

“Glynis gave a great haircut and she is incredibly nice, I’m definitely coming back. She did exactly what I asked for and I left super happy. Great price too! Thank you, Glynis!“

“This was my second cut with Gabby today and I really love my cut. I'm trying to grow my hair out and she made sure to cut the length we discussed and then considering any modifications thereafter. Very professional and easy going.“

“I recently for a wash, trim and straightening from Virginia. We didn't talk much, but the moments we did speak I could tell like she was a nice woman.
Clean environment and I loved the plants all over. This place gave me old school no hassle type of energy. I LOVED that. I was on and out .

Bonus points for the scalp massage while she worked the products in my hair during the washing.

I'll definitely be back.

Call and leave a message. There is no website, social media etc.“

“Dale is excellent with color. He's working with me to integrate my gray into my color. Plus he's fun! He shares amazing stories when I'm in the chair.“

“Lil is the artist unsurpassed! She's been doing my hair for years and I've never been happier!“

“Pristine single braids at a reasonable price ($250) compared to other shops in the area. Took a bit long but the final product was totally worth the wait.

Shop is no frills, technicians and friendly and expert. Would definitely visit again.“

“Antoinette did an amazing job on my hair. I have short hair and it's hard to get right, it's super fine so you can see every detail, and I came in unsure but also with super tricky photos to work with. She brought so much warmth to the whole process and didn't judge me for dyeing my own hair and cutting my own bangs. And she nailed the cut, I love it so much. thank you Antoinette!“

“OGs who have been cutting hair for decades. Marilyn is the most talented, skilled, badass haircutter I’ve ever had the good luck to meet, and I’ve been lucky finding great, skilled hair cutters since I was 16. She is a visionary savant. She sees the hair, she understands the hair, and she instinctively knows what it needs, and how to cut it properly. My hair always feels great after a Marilyn cut. Is he knows how to work with scissors to texturize hair, giving it form, shape, body and bounce. Best hair cut ever !!“

“My wife has been going to see Aisha and I can give you my honest opinion from my perspective. Almost every other person she has had do braids for her has caused her some type of stress or anxiety. Either the final product was not what she wanted, or the person was unreliable or even if the braids came out well they took forever! Seeing Aisha makes her happy. Aisha checks all the boxes, she is quick, reliable, and the braids look great! I am happy that my wife is happy and Aisha helps make that happen. Thank you Aisha!“

“Hidden gem! I love coming here for eyebrow threading....Precise, quick work and Deepa is always so gentle.“

“Very reasonable and a wonderful human being. I've been going to Nirmala monthly for many years!“

“Alex did a wonderful job on my son's hair. He's 16 years old and quite picky about his haircut. She delivered! And she worked with us to find a time that worked with his busy schedule. The salon was friendly and low-key and the price was reasonable enough that we'll be able to come back.“

“I go to Bill he does a great job with my families hair he been in business over 30 years of experience and skills are impeccable bill is such a happy and cheerful spirit and u will enjoy every moment with family oriented business ? ❤️ ? ☺️ ♥️ ? ? ❤️“

“My fave place to go for my lashes and my hair!! Maya has been doing my lashes since early 2022. I had only gotten my lashes done a few times before that but didn't have the best experience so I stopped with the lashes. Maya has done an exceptional job with my lashes, including educating me on the aftercare and providing products to elongate the life of the lashes as well as keeping my natural lashes healthy. I would recommend Maya to anyone and everyone. She's so patient, has really helped me understand the lash cycle and has always answered all my questions. I've been seeing Sarah for my hair since 2022 and wowwww. It makes a huge difference when you go to someone who understands hair the way Sarah does. She is so talented and I'm literally always left in awe of my hair. We did toning before while I was growing out some bad coloring from previous stylist and now just my regular haircuts. I'm so particular when it comes to my beauty services and she always does me right. I appreciate her knowledge and suggestions on the cutting, including face framing and understanding what looks best. I only buy my hair products from there now as well, I love Davines. I feel super thankful to have met Sarah and Maya, they are a staple for me in my self care and even better that they are a locally owned Mother-Daughter business. 10/10 recommend.“

“I have regularly used Wantana for my haircuts for the past 10 years. She does an excellent haircut, does it quickly and is very responsive to my requests and suggestions. Highly recommended!Service: Hairstyling“

“Maria is wonderful! She fit in a cut for me even though I'm a new client. Then she took time with me. Listened to what I asked for. I love my haircut!!!“

“April is the best stylist. I get my hair done by her and have taken both my son (7) and daughter (4) to her for haircuts, especially after they have taken scissors and butchered their hair. She’s magic w scissors and her work w the dye is fantastic also. Highly recommend her to everyone!“

“Pia has been cutting my hair since I was a kid. She is like family. Not the cheapest haircut in town, just the best.“

“Vicki and Timmy are awesome! My husband goes to Timmy and I go to Vicki. They are both kind and do great work. We highly recommend them!“

“My haircut that I got a few weeks ago from Andrea was the best! This was the first time I walked out of a salon feeling confident. Satisfied is an understatement, I can’t wait for the next time that I am due for a cut! Also a wonderful person to have a conversation with. I have gotten a lot of compliments ever since. Thanks a million! ?“
