★★★☆☆ 3.0 Mari A · Nov 2025

I went in for a haircut and got scolded. I didn't go in to argue but paid and even gave a tip. If you want a cheap cut, this is your place. In all fairness, I've never gotten my hair cut in a way I thought was great here or elsewhere. I'll try my luck elsewhere from now on. There needs to be new blood, new attitudes, and fresh people brought in, my unsolicited advice.

Velma is the best in the business! My haircut was perfect and she made us feel right at home the whole time we were in her shop. From here on out, I’ll come get my hair cut with Velma every time I’m in the area.

Let me start by saying don't bring your kids here the owner doesn't know how to cut hair she is the 1st chair so I highly recommend to skip her. I ask for a edge up for my son and this is what I got back so that being said Velma put your clippers down. After reading all the negative comments I got to say they are correct. I had ask for a comb over haircut and I got the stephen a smith cut

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Aaliyah Rodriguez · Nov 2025

I've been going to this salon many years, and it's affordable and the only place I know, unfortunately, my haircut has been messed up over and over again, hoping for the next one to be better, shame on me... It feels like Velma rushes and just doesn't pay attention to detail and just goes her own way instead of following what I asked... I feel that this place isn't women haircut friendly.. I had to cut my hair myself to make it look good since it always comes out messy and uneven and wayyyyy to short, even as I'm trying to grow out my hair due to self conscious and insecurity.. lately even the prices have been going up for women and it just feels unfair since it seems like no one there knows how to cut women's hair and only men's hair.. I was starting to feel confident with my longer hair,

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jhon · Aug 2025

I’ve been to this salon hoping to get a good haircut, but unfortunately, the results have been consistently disappointing. This last visit was the worst yet—I had to wear a hat afterward because of how uneven and badly done the cut was. I didn’t speak up at the time because I didn’t want to be disrespectful or cause a scene in front of other customers. And once a haircut is done, there’s really not much that can be done except wait for it to grow back. That’s the tough part. The prices are affordable, which is appreciated, but price shouldn’t come at the cost of quality. If you’re running a hair business, doing the job right matters—a lot. For many of us, a haircut isn’t just a quick trim; it’s tied to our confidence, our self-image. A good haircut can make someone feel great. A bad one,
