My teen daughter and I have been going here for a few years now, since before it became the Academy, back when it was just a little salon. The owner, Maria, and her son are fantastic. They listen, really, Listen, to what you want. The students cut my daughter's hair, but Maria or her son are always right there supervising, teaching, fixing, etc, all the things an instructor should be doing. Maria cuts my hair and I always leave happy. This place isn't close or convenient to my house, but it's totally worth the drive. I love the multi-cultural experience. Not sure how to describe that, but it's just neat being in an environment that really, truly welcomes all ethnicities and knows how to handle all those different hair types. I'm loving watching this business grow bigger and better through the years! read more
