This is an ombre? My hair 3 days after. Terrible experience. Make sure you have them fix your hair before leaving. They will charge you otherwise. They are for profit.

I was able to schedule an appointment for the same day. Areli was very attentive and cut my hair exactly as I requested; a feat rarely accomplished at any other salon. First time in history I didn't go straight home and grab the scissors. Thank you First Class!

I get a kick out of people whining on here about not getting professional grade haircuts and coloring, its a school! They're learning! If you want professional grade hair done pay the big bucks and go to experienced salon! They have always done right by me and I feel its worth the 10$

I do like the atmosphere here but I have on several occasions received less than par service. When I had my hair colored, they left color all over my face.when my daughter had her nails done, they did a horrible job.my daughter could have done better, so when I complained the student was less than pleasant and an instructor had to fix it. Needless to say, we spent more time there than necessary.

On another occasion, I went in for hair treatment and the student, and another student she was talking to, were behaving very unprofessional. On two other occasions I pre-ordered items and was told that they would call me when the items arrived and never received a phone call. I called and checked on them and they say that there were no notes about my pre-order or they don't answer the phone.

They do have decent prices and I have usually been able to get in when I want/need to but it's not my fave place to go. I try to go here to save on cash or to go somewhere with trendy options.

Steer clear if this place! They did not tell me student haircuts are no longer $5, they are $10. If they told me I would've went somewhere else. My haircut is not great, long hairs around ears and neck they forgot to cut, bangs are uneven. I will have to go home and fix it. They literally told the girl how to cut everything, like she had never cut hair or studied it before. I used to come regularly but I won't ever be coming back after this.

Turned my hair black I wanted it brown. They told me to wash it more it will fade. I had no problem paying the price to have the color taken out. They seemed like they don't have very much knowledge of color how to mix it or how hair absorbs it. I specifically said I don't want black hair! I realize they are learning but I have more knowledge on hair dying and I never went to school for it. Trying to save a a little money here cost me double elsewhere, trying to fix their mistakes. My hair line in front is jet black, the back and top is just black.
