Very gentle with waxing my brows and did a fantastic hair cut i was nervous at first because I have really long hair but it turned out perfect.

I have been going here on and off since I was a child. Cari is THE best hairstylist I have ever met in my life. I have very fine and thin hair, and she was able to change my dark ashy brown hair to a platinum blonde without it feeling damaged at all. She is constantly coming up with recommendations to help maintain my hair outside of the salon, and everything she's told me has worked. She knows my hair type inside and out, and she tailors the bleaching and toning process to make it look perfect.
She is also very easy to talk to and makes me feel comfortable. I actually look forward to my appointments. Take note that this place is so popular that you need to schedule in advance (and it's worth the wait, trust me!) The other employees here are all extremely friendly and efficient. I have not once in the many years I have gone here had a bad experience. 10/10, I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

I had never been here before, and reading all of the reviews, and hearing the stories, I decided it was time to give Vickie's a try. Anna was the one that cut my hair and she did a fantastic job! She was very nice, personable, and very professional. Next time you need a haircut, Vickie's is the place to go!

Excellent nail technician Haily. She does wonderful job. Place is clean and welcoming. I just don't like that they do brow waxing not threading and the price is too high in my opinion.
