I usually don't write reviews but reading the ones on this site helped me decide where to go, so I'm paying it forward.
I haven't been to a traditional salon in FOREVER but I wanted to get a haircut and I didn't think my Dominican salon could handle it. The salon is located in the back of the barber shop so you have to walk through it to get to the chairs. Didn't feel weird at all though, all the guys were super friendly. I booked a consultation first to make sure I would feel comfortable putting my hair in their hands. There were two ladies there, I showed them what I was thinking and they walked me through what the style would actually look like on my head. They were very welcoming, I felt like I had known them forever. Not the same experience I've had at salons in the past where nobody smiles and you feel like you're interrupting their lunch. In the end I felt comfortable enough to make an appointment and I'm going back in a few hours! Only negative was that they tried to talk me into getting a weave, or pieces, idk. It's just not my thing.
Other than that it's a positive environment all around and I'm looking forward to seeing how my haircut comes out!
