2025-08-31Took my three year old boy John in there for his first ever haircut. Cambria did such a great job and made my little man feel so at ease. She even gave him a treat to keep him busy while she cut my hair. It was a really great experience.

2023-06-14Becky has been my hairstylist for over two years now and I've walked out happy after every appointment. She is fun, friendly, personable, and just really good at what she does. I'll be going to her for as long as she's cutting hair! Salon is clean and well-maintained.

2020-11-24DON'T go here!!! Disaster. I truly wish I had a better review to leave. I was referred here by my sister to see Andrea Parker. I contacted Andrea , expressed that I was looking for someone who knew how to highlight brown hair well. That I had been having a hard time finding someone recently who could do it without leaving me orangey/reddish and could do it evenly. She asked for pictures of my hair at the time and how I wanted it. I gave her a reference picture of ME a few years earlier. She quoted me $200. This is more than I really wanted to spend, but I did have some orangey redness at my root grow out that I wanted her to even out. I figured that if I had to spend this amount to get a good result, I would do it due to my bad luck in the past. At my appt she spend a good 25/30 min talking to me and consulting with me about exactly what I wanted. She stated that in my reference pic there were less highlights. I told her I could keep same amount of highlight but that those colors were what I was going for. I expressed that I was nervous what to say because when I have said I don't want the orange hues I end up completely ash colored but I'm afraid to say warm because I don't want orange. That' why I had the reference pic for color. During the consultation she looked at my hair and assessed the situation, pointing out the reddish/orange band along my grow out. I made several comments about how much hair I have and how stylists always comment on how much there is. She said lots of her clients have really thick hair. Well fast forward to finishing the foils. While she was putting toner on my hair she called her husband and had a conversation about how her kids needed to be picked up from school and how they needed to be at practice by 4. (This was around 3 and still had to trim/layer my hair and dry and style it). Her husband said he couldn't and she said she would work it out. Well from this point on the disaster unfolded. She rushed through. Destroyed my hair cut and when I saw my hair it was literally RED AND ORANGE on top. She barely dried my hair and didn't style it. Pictured below is my hair when I went in. My reference pic. And my result. To top it all off she then tells me my total is $310! Is this real life? I said that was over $100 more than she quoted me. She said it was because of how much hair I had (which she saw/felt/touched at the beginning!) She lowered it to $260. I was in shock. I shouldn't have paid but I didn't know what to do. After coming home and seeing the back of my hair (which she didn't show me there) I was horrified. So uneven. Botchy. Pieces missing. I text her and asked for a refund. She denied everything and basically said it was my fault but that she would try and fix it. No thank you! Would you wamt her to touch your hair after this?? Worst experience ever. I am a very understanding person and I honestly usually never even stick up for myself like this but literally this is the worst experience I've had getting my hair done. I understand we all have lives and things happen and sometimes we don't schedule things well but the way she handled it was inexcusable. I want a refund!!
