I was too lazy to update this sooner but Suzie isnt at the Salon anymore. She hasnt been there for a while actually. I've been seeing Laura ever since (the former owner). She's usually only in at the end of the week (thurs-sunday?). Anyway, she's really amazing. I've had a couple of friends ask me where I get my haircut and they've gone to see her too.

I've had my haircut by the other stylists there (Hugo and Estevan). Theyre good too, they just thinned out my hair too much (this is good for some people, not me).

So, if you need a haircut come here and see Laura :)

They effed up my hair.  Twice!  The best the second stylist could tell me was "I can do your eyebrows for free on your next visit?"  First of all, if you messed up my hair, why offer me free eyebrows? Shouldn't it be a free cut?  And thirdly. why on earth would I come back a third time?!

They get the stink-eye from me.

Simply put, LaurA is a hair GOD! I can't say I've ever been happier with a hair cut as I am at this point! I wish I would have found this place sooner.

I've been putting off having my hair cut for almost a year....Bad Trish, I know.  I called up the shop around 2 and she was able to accommodate me for a 5:30 appointment. The shop is very modest. The salon has comfy black velvet couches and pictures of James deanish looking models and pin up girls line the walls.  The staff here is amazing. So friendly and inviting. I am socially inapt but she made me feel very comfortable and relaxed.

My hair is a nightmare. Super long, wavy/curly and thick. I can't tell you how many times a hairstylist has cringed as soon as I walked in the door or asked me to style my own hair because their arm was tired. But the owner Lauren took a look at the picture I brought in and quickly went to work. She thinned out my hair and gave me exactly what I wanted. This salon is an absolute diamond in the ruff. She cut and styled my hair for $30 dollars WOW I have paid twice that and never had a haircut as amazing as the one i received yesterday. Already getting tons of compliments this place deserves more than 5 stars!

One of the best haircuts ever! Number 1- they gave me an appointment after the shop had closed which was awesome because nobody was there. Number 2- the stylist LAURA just asked me what I wanted, I told her I wanted an A line cut. She not only washed, cut and styled my hair for $30 but she also gave me styling tips (I have really thick straight hair) as she was doing my hair. I was totally comfortable and I will definitely be coming back  :)

I'm definitely a fan!!  Great experience.  I called to make an appointment, it's a small shop that shares a parking lot with a pancake house on the east side of Atlantic just south of Firestone.  My curly hair did not intimidate Lauren, she listened to what my hair troubles were while she washed my hair and talked about her plan to make my hair more manageable and assured that we'd still be able to keep the features that I liked.  Lauren shaped and styled my hair.  I got some tips for the upkeep and left feeling very happy, even had an extra pep in my step!!
