I'm giving it a a 3 because I have wonderful cutters through the years but the change in management demoralized the staff and I saw the good and longtime cutters go one by one. You can update the interiors to make it look nice but if you have toxic running the place it's not a nice place to go to because you can feel the bad vibes.

3 months ago I was able to give a positive review. I had a cut more recently with someone new that left me with bloodied scratches on my neck. I would expect such mistakes at supercuts but for $50 haircuts, everyone should know this is the standard of service. Service: Haircut

Camille is the BEST! She has been cutting my 10 year old daughter's hair for a while now. She taught my daughter the importance of haircare and just how to do it. She is patient and thinks through all the options before cutting and considers upkeep and maintenance and hair texture and styling and won't be afraid to push back, even if your child is opinionated. My daughter walks out every time super happy! And so do I!

I cannot recommend Anthony Garubo Salon enough. I have been coming here for over 17 years and have NEVER been disappointed. The staff is extremely professional, efficient, friendly, and create a fun atmosphere. Everyone does an amazing job- from the girls up front who always work with you to arrange your appointments, to the pro's providing the services. Nick is the real deal- he is my hair stylist and makes every appointment so fun.
He takes his time and really listens to what you are looking to get out of each session as well as putting in his professional opinion to make sure you come out looking like a million bucks. I can't recommend him enough. I get asked by friends and family all the time who I go to- It's always Nick. Thank you guys for continuing to go beyond to give 5 star service.

Front end staff was completely insensitive to my emergency situation not even acknowledging what I was going through. just went straight to telling me that the policy is that they would have to charge me full price because I didn't cancel 72 hours in advance (as if this wasn't a clear emergency that I just explained to them) i felt like I was speaking to a robot instead of a human with good decency.although I had to find a way to make arrangements and force myself to go to the appointment as upset as I was, Rachelle definitely made up for the horrible experience that I had with the front end staff.
She was so compassionate and attentive to my needs at that time and did what she needed to do to make sure she got me out of there in good timing so that I could go back to tending to my emergency. She was fast and her results were amazing for my long over due loc retie. Thank God for her because the front end staff definitely left a bad taste in my mouth after that experience.
