Excellent customer care. Pat is amazing. She listens carefully to what you want as a customer, offers suggestions and is always helpful. The salon is always clean, the staff cheerful and pleasant. Best of all I always get positive comments about my hair cut and color.

I absolutely loved my first time at Panache! A friend recommended Panache. The salon is charming. Every one is friendly! Bruce is a sweetheart! A professional who takes his time! I was pleased that Bruce wanted to style my hair! How pleasant not to feel rushed! I am very happy with my color & cut! I am also impressed that I was called to see if my haircut was working for me! Yes, I am going back to Panache!

5 star. For Dan. He retired after cutting and styling my hair for over 20yrs. Never was I unhappy. He had the talent, he was amazing. I was sad to see him retire, but he deserves it. I tried Bruce what a joke, he could only use a razor. I'm on my 3rd hairdresser, knowing I'll never find another Dan.
