I've been going to Different Strokes for almost 30 years and Tony is amazing. Over the years, many amazing hairdressers have come and went. Tony was always pleasant and talkative and did a great job. Always quite satisfied. I believe in great customer service as I have worked in that field over 20 years and now own my own business for children and adults on the spectrum so I speak to and treat all my members w respect and kindness. Last week my spouse went in to get her hair dyed purple . She paid 80 dollars. For that price you'd think it was permanent and should have been told it wasn't. That isn't the problem however. When I called to inquire about the situation and get clarification that purple isn't permanent and it was a miscommunication I was given an attitude by his daughter like I've never heard before. There was such hostility because I "had the audacity" to call and question. I wasn't even angry before the call I just wanted clarification. However, WHAT I DIDNT EXPECT was dismissal and rather rudeness from the owner and then Extreme rudeness and attitude from his daughter. They Just lost a 30 year customer. Such a shame. Kindness goes a long way. read more

Worst cut ever. Not the best barber in town. You want an authentic shave and cut go somewhere else. This is the place not to go.

I've brought them pastries, bottles of wine, and I'm an extremely generous tipper--never less than $40, even for a basic pedicure. Unfortunately, the owner of this Russian salon (who also owns Spectrum Hair Salon) was completely out of line. She falsely accused me of asking her to cancel someone else's appointment for me--which I never said. I simply asked to be notified if there were any cancellations. Anyone who knows me knows I'm respectful, so that accusation made no sense. It got worse when I went in to speak with her. I asked if she handled appointments--she said no. I asked if the owner was available--she said yes. Then she comes around and says, "I'm the owner and the one you spoke to." yeah right after I saw her whisper to two people two girls who was standing at the counter with her so it was obvious she had no interest in solving it so why should my attitude change The fact that I went there that in itself should have told her something, That alone tells you everything. Speaking calmly doesn't excuse rude behavior. The way she handled the situation was unprofessional and unacceptable.
