Ab Beauty Salon

Dec 2014

It shouldn't be that hard to cut guy's hair...but somehow, I've experienced issues when I've come to this salon. No doubt, May is a great hairstylist and very capable. The problem lies with the other employees and the issues that arise when there seems to be a backlog with waiting customers. If given the choice between May and the other women, definitely go with May. I've found the other women to be rather incompetent at following simple directions (e.g. numbers on the buzzers, tapered sideburns) and stubborn at accepting criticism/follow-up directions. So, just go with May. She is much more adept at speaking English, following directions, and cutting hair in general. The other issue arises when the store is busy and there are additional customers waiting for cuts. In those instances, it seems they are jumping at the bit to finish your hair as fast as possible and with little regard to how you actually want your hair cut. So, I'd try to avoid this place during the busy hours (weekend afternoons/nights), and go during the week if possible. In all, May is really quite fantastic the times she has been able to cut my hair, but my overall experience with her shop is quite, as Yelp puts it, "meh."

I like this place. Price is reasonable. May does a great job. I can't say for the other hairdresser. I'm taking off one star bc they never answer the phone call. I like to cal for appointment and check closing time before I stop by, but I could never get through. After a few times I got frustrated and go somewhere else

Whenever I go home to visit my family, I come here to get my hair done. I'll even wait until May is available because I don't really trust the other ladies who haven't been there for as long. I can bring in a picture of what kind of hair I like, and she won't try and sway my opinion or "refine" it, just makes it work for me. What else can I ask for from a hair place? Affordable, friendly service, and I get crazy makeup tips, too. Nothing fancy. The missing star is for the quality of service I see from the other hairdressers.
