First off, they are apparently a long-standing salon but recently opened up with a new, sleek modern look. When I called to make the appointment, they were quick to answer and it was very easy to schedule. I went for a basic women's haircut which was $75. Lilian was friendly and clearly cared about doing a great job, listening to how I was wanting the hair to be cut. Going from longer hair to a shoulder length cut along with a shampoo and dry all took just under an hour. I am definitely interested in coming back!

Unfortunately, the communication and…read moreoverall experience were so frustrating that I ultimately decided I wasn't comfortable booking a treatment with a business that couldn't clearly confirm the specific dates and times I was requesting. UPDATE: 8/09/2026 -- In response to the owner's comment: Your response makes it clear that you did not fully understand my original review, which unfortunately reflects the same communication issue I experienced while trying to book an appointment. I went back and forth attempting to schedule for weeks and tried to book on three separate occasions. When I finally called and someone answered, there was a significant communication barrier, and the call ultimately ended with the person hanging up on me. You're correct that I've never received a service at your salon--but that is precisely the point of my review. I repeatedly tried to become a customer and was unable to successfully book an appointment. My review is about the customer service and booking experience I personally received. If your salon is so heavily booked that you are unable to accommodate new clients, I completely understand. However, potential clients should simply be told that upfront rather than spending weeks attempting to schedule an appointment that is never confirmed. Professionalism begins before a customer ever walks through the door, and unfortunately, my experience trying to become a client was enough for me to decide to take my business elsewhere.

The cut turned out pretty good, but the 4 stars comes from the stylist having multiple clients at once, with an assistant doing the finishing touches/styling.

Nonetheless, this place still gets the job done right. I walked in on a Sunday around 3:45 PM and, despite seeing about 3-4 people ahead of me, I was seated by 4:35 PM - not a bad wait at all! I opted for the wash, cut, and blowout, which came out to a total of $35. I was finished by 5:05 PM, so the service was quick and efficient. (You can call ahead and make an appointment as well). They also let you check the front and back of the hair with a mirror to make sure you like it. Open on Saturdays and Sunday - so perfect for those who are busy/don't have time on the weekdays and need something quick. A heads up: they only accept cash or Zelle, so come prepared. Street parking is available. Overall, If you want a simple, straightforward, budget-friendly haircut without the fancy extras, this salon is a solid choice.

I had to schedule a consult before scheduling my session and it was honestly necessary to make sure we were on the same page about what I wanted, and to make sure I booked the right service. Rania was SO knowledgeable, and informative. She asked me questions i didn't think to ask, to make sure everything went smoothly and that she understood what I wanted. I never felt rushed, and I felt I had her undivided attention. The day of the service felt like such a pampering day, from the gown, to the snacks they had, to the head massage I got while she washed my hair. She was attentive and I truly felt like she loved what she was doing. It was such a fun day! I highly recommend Rania for any of your color needs! It takes a lot to win my trust since my hair is dark, and long and curly, but I will be going back to Rania without a shadow of a doubt.

I left my bag of items on the counter and walked out because the experience was so frustrating. I asked two store associates for help finding a product that was listed as in stock online. The first associate completely ignored me. When I asked another associate, they simply told me the store didn't have it and that it would take 24 hours for the inventory to update. What was disappointing is that no one asked what the product was or even attempted to check or help me look for it. It felt very dismissive. Two days later, the item still shows as in stock at this location online. Customer service and a willingness to help customers go a long way. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at this location.

Laura answered all of my questions and was so nice and helpful. I later found the booking site, and the price was exactly what I was quoted. I booked online with a $25 deposit. When I arrived, I was greeted with a warm welcome and seated right away. Christiana and Leslie (I hope I'm spelling their names correctly) got started promptly at 9:00 AM, and I was completely finished by 12:20 PM! I honestly expected the appointment to take around 6 hours based on the style I booked, so I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly they finished.

I've had decent experiences before, which makes this one even more disappointing. I booked medium BOX braids. I did take a quick look before leaving and said it was fine, but once I got home and could actually see it properly, it was clear how uneven and poorly done it was. The front half was free-parted, while the back had square parts in completely different sizes. It looks uneven, sloppy, and nowhere near what I paid for. I reached out asking for a partial refund (for half the style) and was denied. Instead, I was told I had 3 days to come back for a redo, which is unrealistic considering braiding takes hours and people have real schedules. Then they offered $30 off a future service... after this experience, why would I come back? They also tried to say I needed to "request" square parts vs free parts. I've never had to specify that at any braiding shop, and regardless, that excuse doesn't even apply when the style is literally half free-parted and half square. It's inconsistent work, plain and simple. Pictures attached. I've recommended this shop to multiple people due to previous work, which honestly makes this worse.. Between the quality and the response, I just expected much better and won't be able to recommend them any longer. UPDATE : Multiple braids have slide out of my hair and one had my roots of my hair come out with it. I could not return due to a major medical procedure, which this company was told about. I'm so disappointed that this has happened and this is the way things are being handled.
