She finished with a hot leather straight, razor, shave, and sent me on the way within 15 minutes of my appointment. TRUE professional!

Mack has done a great job setting the place up to feel like a classic barbershop. You can tell he takes pride in his work. I went there for the first time in May after trying several barbers in the Scranton area and feeling disappointed every time. I needed to find a good barber before my wedding in June and this was my last chance. I've never had a better experience anywhere. I showed Mack a picture my (then) fiance had picked out and he went to work. I've never felt so confident leaving the barber shop before. I didn't even have to send her a picture to know it was perfect. Honestly, I'll never go anywhere else for a cut as long as I'm in NEPA. By far the most comfortable, friendly barber shop in the area.

I went to Mane Creations to have my hair done for a wedding. I had never been there before, but a…read morefriend recommended it. Usually I go to The Lodge at Woodloch to have my hair done and cut by Emily and she is AMAZING. However, she was doing the hair for the bride and bridal party for the wedding I was attending, and I had to venture elsewhere. Let me just start off with this: I went to a different wedding in March and had Emily do my hair. I had it done and then drove three hours to the Ritz Carlton in Philadelphia to go to the wedding. My hair lasted the entire evening, I received many compliments on it, and we danced the night away and had a wonderful time. I walked in (a side door) to Mane Creations and was assigned to a young girl with blonde hair. She said she didn't know how much they could accomplish with hair because it is so fine, but she would try. After putting a pound of product in my hair to attempt a french braid that twists into a bun at the back of my head, I realized this was not going to go well. She was messy and inexperienced. My hair looked like a child had been practicing on her doll. I asked for something easier instead. After applying more unnecessary product to my hair, she attempted the next picture I had brought: my hair was to be half up with a horizontal braid across the back and the bottom half was down and curled. She tried to poof up the front which resulted in my resembling a lion. Also, she pinned up the curls that were to be kept down because she said they wouldn't last long because of my hair type and that I should take them out of the pins right before I left for the wedding. I wasn't too excited, but I left with a smile and left the girl a 20% tip because I thought that was the nice thing to do. When I took the pins out at home, my hair didn't even move. It was one frizzy clump of no-longer-curled hair. Also, the product in the front of my hair had dried up and it looked like I had an excessive amount of dandruff. I called the salon at 2pm to see if something could be done (the wedding was at 3:30pm) and they said they could take me back at 5:30pm at the earliest. At this point I requested a refund and they said the owner would call me back the next day. The wedding was on Friday. Teresa didn't call Saturday so I left a voicemail on Sunday. She called me back on Monday offering me 25% off of my next service there. Five phone calls later, she said that the girl who did my hair said I had never intended on taking the curls back down (which was the entire point of the hairdo) and that she had never given a full refund before and wasn't about to start because legally she didn't have to. I told her how extremely disappointed I was in not only the skills of her hairdresser, but in the customer service I had received and that I would not like 25% off of my next service because I was not planning on returning. In fact, I told her I had half of a mind to write this all in a review so that people would know what they were getting into and be able to avoid this same issue. At this point, she accused me of slander (which is when someone tells a lie to ruin a reputation) and threatened to get her lawyer involved. She said she would refund me half of my service and said she was "just done with this". In the end, I had to wash my hair and wear it down for the wedding and we had a great time. But I will never go back there again.
