I had hip-length hair I’ve been growing since I was 18. I asked Abby to cut the dead ends, 8 inches at most. She butchered my hair to my earlobes…I don’t know how you could do this to someone if it wasn’t intentionally malicious. She did not style my hair after, either, which is offered as part of the price of the cut. She made me pay full price for the butcher job, none was comped. She knew she did it wrong because she refused to take pictures. This used to be my favorite place, I’d never go anywhere else. I’ve had such a traumatic experience having my beautiful hair nearly shaved off, I just can’t go back.

I recently wanted to get my haircut and highlighted for my homeschool prom, I booked an appointment and I was given Amanda as my hair stylist. I've never gone to this place before but Amanda did an AMAZING job with my hair. I was unsure about getting my hair lighted because I've never had it done before, so I detailed to her what I was looking for with inspiration pictures of both highlights and my desired haircut and she did exactly what I was looking for!
I was SO happy with how my hair turned out, it was the best haircut I had ever had as well. My mom loved my hair so much that she even went and got hers done too and added some color to her hair.
All of my friends and family loved my hair, I even had a friend book a different appointment with a different stylist, Erin, and she loved her hair as well.
I am definitely looking forward to my next hair appointment with Amanda in the future!

Agree with all of the other 5 star reviews. Megan has been doing my hair for quite some time and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. She does a phenomenal job every time ◡̈ I could walk in without a plan and she already knows what would look best for my hair type, hair goals, color, etc. She’s the best!

I went in this morning for a hair cut with Leah and she was super fun to work with! She did an amazing job cutting my hair and giving it a trim. Very professional and personable!
Later in the day I went to get my bridal trial done and I LOVE every style Leah did and she worked with me and let me tell her what did and didn’t work- SHES THE BEST! I already booked to have my hair and makeup and bridal parties makeup done. I’m beyond pleased with the work and the prices!! Also I have very fine hair and had hair extensions put in and they felt and look amazing- can’t even tell they are in!

I went to have a facial and my expectations were exceeded. Liz did an amazing job, from her expertise to her hospitality. She specialized a facial for my skin type and skin concerns and left my skin absolutely glowing. I had my face dermaplaned and then had my blackheads and pores in general extracted. I don’t wear skin makeup and can see a drastic difference in my skin quality, now, and can only imagine what would come out of the pores of someone who regularly wears makeup. If you are looking for somewhere to have a facial, I super recommend First Impressions and especially ask for Liz!
