    Perfect for a prom dress tailoring. Fast and friendly! I would use her again for any of my tailoring needs. Great value!

    I am a petite woman. I'm typically a size 6, but only 5'0". Clearly a lot of clothing isn't made…read morefor my proportions and wedding dresses certainly are not. I ordered my dress online at Cocomelody. It was beautiful, but definitely too long. I had about 4 inches of dress at the bottom that I kept stepping on when trying to walk. I decided to check out Tina's while I was visiting my parents in Killeen. I wanted to keep my wedding dress away from my house so my future husband couldn't see it. I called first and they said they were open with shortened hours on Saturday. My sister and I went in Saturday morning, and the sign outside indicates masks are required. Nice work staying safe! No one else was in the shop so Tina saw us immediately. She led me to the back to try on my dress so she could mark the changes she thought I'd need. She could immediately see the length was a problem, and told me fixing that should be simple. However, upon further inspection of my dress she noted the bottom layers were sewn together; she would have to unstitch them to make the changes. Plus, the top didn't quite fit: the arm holes were a bit too big, and the back sagged a little. It wasn't a horrible look, but when Tina lifted the back and made the fit more secure, my sister noticed a big difference. Tina went over all the alterations I needed repeatedly so it was clear what she was going to do. We established a time, (about 2 weeks before my wedding date in case I wanted anything altered), she told me a price, we agreed, and then she wrote me a receipt to be paid when I picked up my finished dress. I got a call a few days later saying my dress was already ready to be picked up! She finished nearly a week earlier than scheduled. Again, I brought my sister to see me try on my dress and she was blown away. I immediately noticed the fit was better. The changes seemed so subtle on the outside, but my dress felt like mine. Tina did great work and I looked amazing! If you need alterations, I highly recommend this shop.

    "All types of alteration" is false advertisement, I went in hoping to get the length of my curtains…read moreshorter & she automatically goes, "nope can't do it, I don't work on curtains" make sure to call in and see if she can do what you want, lesson learned. Thank you to Sassy's Cleaners, she did all my curtains within a couple hours, I was so thankful for her!!
