“I have been going to Lisa (the owner) for many years. She is so gentle and kind and always listens to exactly what I want. She is an absolute delight to be around and my hair always turns out PERFECT! I would highly recommend her salon and specifically her to anyone! The atmosphere is always pleasant and very clean! The prices are affordable and Lisa is great with curly hair!! Can't wait for my next appointment!”
