The salon itself is clean and has a nice ambiance, I did not feel out of place while hanging out on their couch waiting for my turn. Shana did an amazing job on my hair.

I go and get a $60 hair cut, and end up paying only $40. That's a deal if you ask me!! Requesting an appointment is super easy. You can message on yelp and they will get back to you. Only downside is the parking is pretty tuff and hard to get it if sometimes. It's kinda small and tight. One time I had to drive around the block a couple times because it was full. Other than that, I love this place and continue to come back every time.
