Hamid, was my stylist and she w as very thorough. I received a cut ✂️ and deep conditioner and a silk press. She did a wonderful job. Only suggestion I have is to wash your comb or whatever you may drop on the floor before putting it back in a clients hair. I will be back, thanks

This was my first visit for a haircut and pedicure, but it won't be my last! Everyone was so nice and smiles galore!! My beauty tech, Mia, was wonderful! So polite, caring, and did a fantastic job! I can see that she will go far in the beauty industry! Thanks for taking such good care of me, Mia. Also, a shout out to her educator who was just as awesome!! As someone who has been in management, I truly believe that people in any field are only as good as their leaders! So, great job, everyone!!
