I took a leap of faith, made an appointment and was really pleased! Thankfully, she and her staff do a great job! She is a very good listener and interprets clearly what you want done.

Convenient location and a great value! Money well spent for a fabulous cut for you or as a lovely gift for anyone in your family!

Julie chopped chunks out of my hair and thinned off all my underhair. She left long thin top strands as camouflage!! My hair is a mess of different lengths, split ends and long wispy pieces.

Long hair can hide mistakes easier than short hair. Walked in and Candice immediately greeted me with a smile. She listened to what I wanted and gave me a beautiful haircut and blow out. So often I find hair stylists will listen and then cut too much. I'd rather get my hair cut more frequently than having to wait a week before I actually like it. Phew. Thank you Candice
