I had long layers. I came here as I read the reviews. My hair needed a trim... I moved and it was…read moreoverdue. When I got there, Jung was pleasant. Seem nice. Very chatty. She asked lots of personal questions, not about hair.. about income, everything about my partner, my family ... It felt too personal to share on a first virit. I said three things with my hair. 3 If she did not understand she should have asked me to explain more. 1 I asked for 2 inches off. I could not understand until I was home she took off three. 2 I asked for it to be even in the back with "no shelf". That mean no big horizontal lines into the back of my hair... I had my hand flat to the back of my head and said this... no shelf cut into the back. She sis not listen. I have waves in the back.. and when cuts are put into the back.. when it does not softly blend with the ends I am left with a mess. 3. I asked for it to be softly blended layers. I don't care if it was cut in a u or a straight line this is not softly blended. This is not soft blended ... Please see pictures. A picture is worth 1000 words. My hair was anything but what I asked for. If she did not know,.. she could have asked me for clarity or just done a modest trim. . I can't go back to her to fix this. I do not trust her. If they got three things wrong how can I trust more????? I am left with a bell shape/ a triangle jagged haircut. it is way wider on the bottom. Jagged cuts does not work with my fine... but dense slightly wavy hair. Also she was very pushy and kept taking pictures of me. I asked her to stop 4 times. I don't care if it was just for her phone, my hair was wet and I did not want my picture taken! She still took 4 or 5 pictures! Even with me telling her stop.. She did not need a face picture to remember me! I sent her one before I came. That completely disrespectful! How sad. Do not take even one picture if your client says no. No means no. Not sure what was lost in translation.

At a glance, this place may look a bit ghetto-a little rough around the edges. Maybe it's the giant…read moreshaggy gorilla put out on sunny days that waves at the passing cars. But for those who can get over the first impression of the shop there is infinite benefits. Tony, the owner and hair stylist, is exactly what I have always wanted out of a hair stylist. He's not afraid to help you try new things with your style but will tell you straight up if something isn't working for you. I also like to talk to my hairdressers instead of sit in an awkward silence, or worse-carry on meaningless conversations. Tony and I have carried out many conversations-from pop culture and reading to more taboo subjects like religion and politics. And he won't mess up your hair if you have different views, promise. I actually feel cultured after leaving this place. Be open to new things and intelligent conversations. Get your hair cut here!

Did not listen to what I said I wanted. I told him several times the cut and style I want. He said…read moreok and then did something completely different. I constantly was correcting him, but he kept ignoring me. I even showed him a picture of what I wanted and he said that he copied that. It doesn't look ANYTHING like it!! I left in tears because it looks so horrible. Another thing I did not appreciate was he basically forced make-up on me. He asked if I wore make up and I said yes. Next thing I know he was putting lipstick on me. Very rude in my opinion. I would have liked if he asked to do it first. I don't even like wearing lipstick. I will never go there again and would warn against asking anything of him more than a trim if you do go. He obviously doesn't have the skill or the listening skills to do anything else.
