It seemed as if she didn't want to be there. She also snapped a really bad photo of him after the haircut. At least be patient enough to get him to smile...

After seeing the sign for this salon, she wanted to go. Since we were next door, we went into the salon to check it out. The woman working didn't offer a greeting, or say a word. She muttered something under her breath while just staring at us. Then said 'you can't be here' that was it! When asked her to repeat herself, the mother of the little princess of the day said ,"it's by appointment only" We left... On the way out, my companion picked up a bottle of glitter that was on a table by the door. She has poor eyesight, and picked it up to see what the sparkling & appealing thing was. The employee yelled "she can't touch that! Put it down!' And then ran to the front of the store to chase us out. To have a person in the service industry treat us so rudely was shocking. But to make a beautiful young woman with disabilities feel bad about herself is disgraceful. I wouldn't trust this place to groom my dog, let alone my child. Shame on you!

He looks even more handsome now than he already did. Very pleased!!! We will be back! In the window on a BIG sign it states - Appointments Encouraged! Please call and do make an appointment.

It's so frustrating and I hope YOU all aren't treated like that. She saw my happy son run in excited for his haircut and denied him. A 3 year old shouldn't be condoned to that treatment. We've been having haircuts here for years and we make appointments on time and show up on time and still had to wait 10-15 mins for the stylist to finish. This is the first time we've done an afternoon weekday appointment and as usual traffic is horrible when you need to get there. My son absolutely loves hair cuts especially here. We made 5:30appt. Unfortunately we were '7' minutes late and when I walked in and said sorry for traffic she said we have a policy. So I asked when is the next appt she said 'tomorrow' I jumped on the website and there were openings for another hour. I don't get it. I guess some ppl have shitty days and take it out in customers. My sons both of them have been to Debbje on multiple occasions. It's sad I liked this place but being ridiculous to a customer especially with so many hair cut openings. I'm so terribly sad with our treatment.

It's…read morepricey, to be sure, but my little one can be a bit rambunctious -- which isn't a great combination with scissors. Also, I had tried to cut his hair once before, and I kinda butchered it in the back, so I thought it was probably best to leave the first real haircut to the professionals. I made an appointment with Jay on the website, and showed up about 5 minutes before our slot. When it was our turn, Parker got to sit in the fighter jet chair which has a nice-sized TV in front of it, and before we could even suggest Ms. Rachel (who I joke is my baby's third parent), Jay already had her pulled up. And let me tell you, my little boy was an absolute angel for his haircut... because all he wanted to do was watch Ms. Rachel. At one point, Jay handed him an oversized rubber ducky to keep his hands occupied. At the end, Jay said Parker was the quietest baby she'd seen! My boy REALLY loves Ms. Rachel, guys ;) The haircut turned out great, although I have mixed feelings if only because he looked so much more like a toddler after! The folks at our daycare said it looked fantastic and asked who we used. I don't know how often we'll need haircuts for him (I'm a first-time mom so I'm learning all of this as I go, haha), but this was such a painless experience that for a little while anyway, I'll be fine paying a bit more if it means I have a happy (not traumatized) kid at the end :)

My son is very emotional and gets nervous, and he loves going to see her. I really like the overall vibe of the place, and what's cool is they are offering party packages now.

We tracked her down after she left where she was previously for many years. Thank goodness we did. This visit was my daughter's first trim and wash in the salon. My daughter is age 3. My daughter felt like a princess, she was engaging with Ms. Melanie while laying back in the wash bowl. She was very cooperative with Ms. Melanie when it was time to walk over to her chair. The very cool interactive chair the kids sit in is the coolest I've seen in a long time long time. While my daughter was being pampered, my son was playing over in the waiting area. Playing with toys that were already on the table. While his Nintendo switch laid on the couch. Yes, my 7 year old placed down his electronic device to play with toys. So, when his turn comes up. He gets a comb out, hair cut (Ms. Melanie asked my husband and I what style and legit we wanted). He also gets a rinse after the hair cut. Which I had requested prior to coming in. My son has been seeing Ms. Melanie successfully for over 3 years. I remember being pregnant with my daughter when I would bring my son to visit Ms. Melanie. We love the space on so many levels. Mermaids having wall clock was cool. The entire themed wall was also a great touch. The interior is 100% accessible. If you need a ramp to access the sidewalk there is one to the right at the end of this building. Which was no problem with us, as my husband is in an electric wheelchair. We also received a first hair cut and picture and a trimming piece of my daughter's hair. From her first hair cut. My daughter had such a great experience, requested that we return to the kid salon the following day. We will definitely be back, not immediately like the next day lol, but definitely in a couple of weeks.
