★★★★★ 5.0 A Goodin · Feb 2026

Everyone there was so kind and Kodi was a fantastic stylist! I came in with a clear idea of what I wanted and she took the time to fully understand and make sure we were on the same page. I really wanted to maintain the length of my hair and she made sure to not take off more than I was comfortable with while still keeping my hair healthy and giving me the shape and layers I wanted. She was so sweet and friendly and was happy to make any adjustments I requested. When she was done, she made sure I was fully satisfied with the result before I left and it easily ended up being my favorite cut I've gotten in a while. I highly recommend Kodi!

★★★★★ 5.0 Michelle Mcquistan · Dec 2025

Raye is amazing! She gives great haircuts, which is difficult to do on curly/wavy hair. I appreciate her attention to detail, engagement, and patience.

My daughter (who is on the spectrum) recently broke her leg. She spent a week in the hospital where they did not brush her hair. I called GK’s, where we’ve gone numerous times before, informed them of the situation, including her diagnosis, and they agreed to take her on and detangle her hair. Not thirty minutes into it, after threatening to shave her head numerous times because “that’s what they do to matted cats and dogs,” and having three people work on her hair which overstimulated her even more, they decided they couldn’t brush out her hair because she was having a meltdown. Not a spectrum-friendly salon!

It might be worth it just for the head massage, but when you have a gold medal-worthy stylist like Raye who sends your head home looking AND feeling great, you really can't go wrong.
