Very professional beautiful ladies they will have you in and out quickly. But, I recommend you come in early whatever style you want they can do. I finally found a salon that I can come to no appointments needed either.

Nunu did a FANTASTIC JOB with my two daughters hair. It was fast and overall great work. This new shop/location is beautiful and I will keep coming back. The prices are worth the service and she makes sure YOU ARE SATISFIED before leaving the shop.

I really enjoyed watching how the team flowed together. I was particularly impressed with how the owner was styling hair as well as overseeing stylists that were perfecting their skills, making sure the customers were hooked up. Not one person left out of there looking less than fabulous! I saw them handle male and female clients and a child client there with her mom. The two of them left with very elegant loc styles suitable for a wedding, which the mom is getting married.

This is my SPOT to get my hair done. I've been going there for the past 3 years now and LIVE IT! EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE in there has skilled hands with retwisting and styling locs. I absolutely love going to get my hair done here as do Soo many others. Bo is the owner, and the prices are very affordable.

You can go there for a wash, retwist and a style. However if you wash your hair before you get there, it makes the process much faster as half the job is already done. Today Nook (grandma) did my hair and she did it EXACTLY how I asked and showed her to. I support ALL of the stylists in there as they're all good. Love this place.

They accept cash, cash app and now have an atm inside.
