I LOVE IT HERE!!! I have crazy, curly, unmanageable hair and over the years, I've had many many different people try (and fail) to cut it. NO SHADE it's just really difficult. BUT some time last year my mom started going to Veronica and the moment I met her I knew she was chill and for the first time in years, I let a professional cut my hair. SHE ROCKED IT!!! Now I only go to her and she cut my hair again today and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you, Veronica, so so much for the cut and never being annoyed when I ask for suggestions. You make me actually excited to get my hair cut, and even though I used to hate my hair short you made me love it!!! You told me today about the bad Yelp review you got so I just wanted to brag to you and everyone about how incredible you are.


Thank you for restoring my faith in salons, and for the AMAZING cut.

Veronica UNLICENSED AND WORKING

DO NOT GO TO VERONICA! It is sad that I've been going to this salon for over 5 years twice a week for the cost of $40 to $160 plus Veronica's cash tip (ranging from $10 through $20 OR MORE each visit in addition to having her come to my home on her days off to do my hair - I would give her $50 cash or more, picked her up from her home and drove her back).

My stylist WAS Veronica. Six months ago she chucked my hair only to see it break while she washed it. I always said to anyone and everyone just how much I TRUSTED Veronica and have sent her clients throughout the YEARS. However, I gave her a break six months ago and she gave me a lame story that it was all my surgeries that was causing my hair to break. Bull s!#=_!!! My doctor confirmed yesterday that she had severally caused a burn to my scalp. PICTURES WILL BE ATTACHED OF MY HAIR BREAK ING AND NUMEROUS TOWELS RUINED TWO TOWELS $45 each.

When she chunked my hair again just about a month ago, my HAIR AGAIN BEGAN TO BREAK WHILE IN THE SINK. VERONICA BLAMED ANESTHESIA WAS STILL IN MY SYSTEM FROM MARCH, 2014 (IMPOSSIBLE). WHEN I TEXTED HER WITH PHOTOS SHE WAS RUDE AND UNACCEPTABLY UNPROFESSIONAL. ... The problem with her ALWAYS is that she is texting CONSTANTLY, which I never cared .... UNTIL IT EFFECTED HER SERVICED DIRECTLY ONTO ME.

I have had issues in the past but wanted to tey one more time. I explained exactly what I wanted. I told her if you can not do it then say so before you start. My hair takes forever to grow and it took me 4 years to finally get the length back. I told her 2 inches in the back and a feather style on sides. She angled it to the front and cut over 6 inches off the back. I spent 3 hours crying today. Everyone says don't worry it will geow back. Well it will take 3 to 4 years to grow back after this bad cut. I have to give a rating and would say a big fat "0". Fact is if you can't do the cut say so cause at least I would respect you. Fo not give a cut you think the peraon should get.

Despite the questionable reputation of C&C, I decided to give it a go after Beauty Plus was booked solid. Next time, if there is a next time, I plan on waiting to get my hair cut.

I entered the shop with the intention of getting a trim. My hair is rather short, but it had become shaggy recently. A few months ago I had gotten my hair cut at Beauty Plus, and the stylist was fantastic and delivered exactly what I wanted. So I came to C&C armed with pictures of my old hair style. As soon as I walked through the door, I regretted the decision.

The front desk work was incredibly cold. He barely looked up when I walked into the salon, choosing instead to chat with the stylist behind him. I dislike the fact that I had to tap on the counter before I was noticed. And when the gentleman turned around, he did not make eye contact at all, and spoke as if I was offending him with my presence. He obviously lacked customer service skills, and this almost prompted me to turn around and save the haircut for another day. But he called for the stylist, being the best thing about the whole trip, and I was quickly ushered away.

The rest of the visit only solidified the fact that choice to go to C&C was a terrible idea. The stylist, whom I believe was named Cindy, approached me in a way that was rather off-putting. She sat me down and I showed her the pictures of my old hairstyle. I explained how the other stylist had done my hair. She proceeded to criticize the way the other stylist had done my hair. She made feel very uncomfortable when she was cutting my hair. When I asked her to give me layered bangs (which the other stylist had easily done), she asked me if I blow-dry my hair. I said no, then she said "so why bother getting layered bangs if you won't blow-dry them to show them off?" For the record, I've had layered bangs before, and they turned out perfectly fine.

Cindy proceeded to completely ignore what I wanted with my hair, and cut my hair the way she thought looked good. When she finished, I could only see slight differences with my hair. It was definitely not what I wanted when I walked through the door. When I took my ticket to go pay, the man at the front desk finally looked interested in my presence. Only interested in clients when they're giving you money, huh?

Well, I suppose I got what I paid for. The trip cost me $15, and I do believe I got what I paid for. When I got back home, I had my partner cut my hair. They got my hair looking closer to my old style than C&C did, and they even messed it up slightly.

To summarize: I received a better haircut from my partner in my residence hall bathroom than I did from a so-called professional in a salon.

Very disappointed with the attitude of the employees. They need customer Service class.

I only go to Jamie B, she is young has a fresh approach, isnt afraid to try new things or anything that I ask for. If she isnt available the day I call, trust me I can wait for her.. I ABSOLUTLEY would recommend her to anyone and everyone. She is good with all hair and I love how she highlighted my hair into exactly what i wanted it took more than once but she did it and got it to what i wanted, i left there so happy and will not let anyone else touch my hair but her and her prices are fantastic!!!!! I took my 10 year old to her for feathers and OMG she loved it as well. Jamie is friendly, she makes sure you leave with what you asked for and nothing less. I believe that C & C knew what they were gaining when they hired her :)

Have my hair cut there a lot, have never had a problem and am just as happy there as I was as the more expensive 'Spa' places. My husband has been going there even longer and has never had a problem.



Find people who go there and ask them who does their hair, then ask for that person.



I have gone to Marissa for several hair cuts and have been happy every time.



They would not be there that long if they were that awful.

RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

Awful! The WORST haircut I've ever had! Being how many haircuts, etc that I've had in my life time, this place is the worst! Yes, it is based upon who cuts your hair but let me tell you, they interview each and every employee there and I hold the entire place responsible! The person who cut my hair did such a lousy job that it took FOUR MONTHS to grow out! I couldn't get my hair cut until the layers had grown out enough. The people who work there, including the reception desk, need lessons in how to treat people. Absolutely bad manners along with bad hair cuts! You get what you pay for and here, low budget and no class all the way!
