I had such a wonderful experience at Shear Instincts today! From the moment I walked in the space felt welcoming and beautifully put together. But what truly stood out was the kindness and professionalism of both Stephanie and Sammy. Without knowing me, Staphnie didn't think twice to go out of her way to help me solve a tech problem. Even better was that I found Courtney who does lash extensions there (Lash and Beauty Room). Courtney provided the most comprehensive (and sanitary) lash application I've experienced. She is lovely, patient, and her prices are fair for the work she does. I'm looking forward to trying the many services offered at SHEAR INSTINCTS!
