Juli is awesome. She spends time to see what you like. I was one that just wanted to show up and get a haircut and usually waited too long. I have learned you can't do that here. I now have appointments every 5 weeks. The parking is easy, and they have cookies and coffee when you enter.

  • Chris Vierling is THE BEST! She has been doing my hair for over 15 years, and I like to change my hairstyle frequently. From very short to long and layered, I always walk out of the salon happy with the result whether it's a cut, color or perm. She truly listens and cares about making her clients happy.

  • Regina Daniel is the best hair cutter I know! I've been going to her for about 20 years.
