    I got a dress hemmed for a wedding and was very happy with the service! The owner was flexible with a short turnaround time for the dress.

    I'd been nervous to find a tailor after moving from Boston to Winthrop, but Yelp pointed me toward Jas.

    Absolutely awful experience. This business is completely unprofessional, dishonest, and impossible…read moreto work with. I brought in a $250 dress that they damaged, and instead of taking responsibility, they sent it to Nordstrom without my permission pretending to be me in order to get a refund. That's not just shady, it's unethical and potentially illegal. They offered me $50 and a refund for the cleaning, as if that would cover the damage or excuse them for impersonating me and sending my property somewhere without asking. They take no accountability and try to gaslight their way out of every situation. They hide behind being a "small business," but that doesn't excuse this kind of behavior. Being a small business means you should operate with more integrity, not less. Save yourself the headache and go literally anywhere else.

One time I needed a dress tailored mid week for a weekend event (this is the same week mind you) and they got it done no problem! Don, who is often there when I drop off my clothes, is so personable and is always so kind. The prices, the people, and the work they do (both for dry cleaning and tailoring) is always amazing. Could not recommend this place more!

I finally called around, and this was the only place open late and nearby--and I'm so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the experience was amazing. Raymond went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He even had me try on shoes to ensure the length was exactly right, which I really appreciated. I originally asked if they could be ready by Friday (my ceremony was Saturday), but when I called to see if Thursday was possible, he made it happen without hesitation. The pants turned out perfectly hemmed--exactly what I needed for such an important day. The attention to detail, professionalism, and quality of work here are top-notch. I'm incredibly grateful and will definitely be coming back in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for expert tailoring and great service!

I'll definitely be coming back for any future alterations!

    Absolutely terrible experience! We were referred to this alteration place by another tailor who was…read morebooked up due to prom season. The women here are kind, but that's about the only good thing I can say. I honestly don't know if they're inexperienced or just have never worked with a Black woman's curves before, but not one, not two, but three of my dresses were completely botched. I also had a top altered and it came back lopsided. After the first round of alterations, the owner tried to gaslight me, saying they had only adjusted the strap for my burgundy dress (which was never the main issue). I initially asked for the sides to be taken in because the bust area was too big, but somehow, that got lost in translation. So I paid AGAIN, for all to be fixed and what I got back was even worse. Everything felt rushed, uneven, and downright sloppy. I bawled my eyes out because these dresses were meant for my birthday trip. The white dress? It was the most horrendous one, imagine the outline of Sarah Baartman on a modern-day garment. That's how distorted the shape was. Even after a third attempt, the seams were still crooked and the dress was unwearable. I'm now left dressless for my trip and out of money. If I could give this place zero stars, I would.
