Book your cut with Matsumi and you won't be disappointed. I told her I was trying to grow my hair out, and she cut and thinned my hair so that it would still be manageable. She was friendly and discussed her plans with me before cutting. Matsumi also took the time to explain her recommendations to me. I am sure she is a very social person, but I am not a fan of small talk and she left me alone. Bonus points for silence.
I left happy with my haircut and recharged. This is still the place to go for a good deal on a haircut.
