Four years ago I walked away from Darlene's due to a misunderstanding I could have handled differently. It was a difficult time in my life after two major tragedies. During the 4 years I tried other salons and while I did receive some good haircuts, the environments didn't feel like "home". When I asked my stylist, Rachelle if I could return to her, she warmly accepted me back. When I walked into the salon, it felt like "home". The stylists are professional, warm, and skilled in their art. They can with ease cover for each other if necessary. It feels so good to be back with them.

I asked for a "trim" and showed Darlene 2 pictures of how I wanted my hair to look, she asked me if I wanted to keep my length and I advised her "yes". She proceeded to "cut" my hair, when I finally looked at what she did, because I wear glasses and could not tell what she was doing. My hair was 6" shorter and the style was nothing even close to what I asked for. Darlene is the worst hairdresser/stylist I have ever been too in my life.
I am desperately looking for hair extensions because I have a wedding in November. Which is why I had my hair trimmed in the first place. If you want a butcher job go to this place. She is by far the worst. Time to retire when you can't do what your clients ask you to do.

I have been to Darlene's Hair Hut a few times and always found it to be a very professional and friendly place. My hair has been colored and styled always to my satisfaction. I definitely will be going back again.

Had a few bad experiences with a different barber in town recently and decided to look for a new one. Didn't take long lol. Very home like atmosphere. Price is on point. The haircut I received turned out great. Made my next appointment before walking out the door. Looking good for Christmas now thanks a million Service: Hairstyling

Great Service! If you're looking for a "chill" low key environment to get your Hair done- This is the place! Moment of walking in felt a comfort and they are also following the protocol during "this time". All staff are great! I had my nails and hair done. Back to back! Darlene and her staff are great! Makes you feel comfortable and at home, as soon as you walk in!

I went here for the first time because of their reviews and responses to bad reviews. I was a little hesitant when I got there (not much of a "pretty" looking salon) but I was immediately relieved when I got to talking to the staff and owner. Very friendly and welcoming. My stylist Leslie was awesome. I felt welcome and relaxed. She did a fantastic job cutting my hair, she even offered to come to my house to trim my elderly grandmas hair. I have definitely found a new salon for me and my family! Thank you Leslie and Darlene for making time for me!
