This salon is AMAZING! Staff is friendly I go in for hair trim and manicures. I'm in my mid 40s and this is the first salon that feels welcoming to me even though I'm usually not into hair and nails. Didn't think I would like it and I was right. I LOVE it! They make everything painless and easy. The hand massage and hot wax part is probably my favorite thing every 6 wks now. The Aveda hair care products I'm buying while I'm there, are making my hair more manageable and a good size for traveling weeks at a time without running out. I just can't say enough good things about them. And Donna rocks!

First let me start by saying how amazing it smells inside and how CLEAN. With everything going on they take special precautions with their clients to insure health and safety of everyone. The review: Brittany is the Lebron James of brazilian waxes, she's super quick and accurate. She makes you feel super comfortable and makes great conversation. Matt is the MAN for ethnic hair. He's meticulous in the process of doing hair. He wouldn't do anything to damage it. LOVE this place
