I went in for a trim and to get some face framing done and Rachel did a great job! I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she executed it perfectly! She also gave me some great tips for how to style it at home. Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely be returning to this salon.

Alex made my hair look so good and was friendly and helpful! I got a pretty layered cut and didn't want to lose length, and she was upfront about how much we'd take off which made me feel better too. Def coming back

Love this place so, so, so much! Natalie is a superstar! I go to her every single time for a bang trim! She saved my bangs after a DISASTER trim at a different salon that had me worried nobody could fix them! Natalie was able to, though and she killed it! Now I only go to her and she’s always the sweetest and always trims them the PERFECT way!
