Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers come for the haircut itself and the friendly, competent stylists who deliver it, with several saying they always feel comfortable in the chair. Close behind is how well requests are heard. One reviewer with curly, very voluminous hair says the stylists happily try new things and don't talk them out of cutting long hair. Another had hair care and product questions answered kindly, with application examples. Reviewers also mention a relaxed, pleasant atmosphere with good music, appointments that come relatively quickly, and prices described as more affordable than other salons. A few call the stylists creative, fresh and modern. The caveat is inconsistent results. One reviewer found a first cut perfect but a second cut from the same stylist bad, after the stylist declined to look at the reference photo again, and a complaint sent with a photo over Facebook Messenger went unanswered. Another, warmly welcomed, was still unhappy with the finished cut. One neutral review simply calls the salon okay.

“I went to this hair salon because all my friends assured me it was a safe space for queer people. It even says so on their website. But it's only a safe space for queer white people. It's not okay to claim they can cut all hair types and then immediately refuse to cut someone with curly hair because they don't know how, won't do it, and don't have products for Afro hair. My hair isn't Afro; it's 3b to 3c curls. There are definitely white people with that type of curl. Does that mean all the hairdressers who were there today can't cut curly hair? In all their years as hairdressers, no one at this salon has ever cut curly hair? The person who spoke to me didn't even ask their colleagues if they'd be willing to cut my hair into a mullet. And then they told me I should go to an Afro hair shop instead. If it had been a white woman with 3b to 3c curls who also wanted a mullet with shaved sides, would she have been sent to an Afro hair salon? I don't think so; that was just everyday racism. Is that your idea of a safe space? Maybe it's a very good hair salon, but not safe for people of color.”

“I'm usually very nervous before going to the hairdresser, but here I felt very welcome! Every question I had about hair care and products was answered kindly and professionally (even with application examples).”

“Great salon! Very friendly and highly competent hairdressers. I always feel very comfortable there. I would definitely recommend it.”
- Soraya
“I received a very warm and friendly welcome at the salon. Unfortunately, I'm not at all happy with my haircut. It's all the more painful considering I paid almost €80 for it and the result looks so bad. I hope future customers have a better experience.”
- Eleni Stavrou
“It was the same hairdresser, the same stylist. The second time I went, I even asked if I should show him the photo again, but he said no, he didn't need to. The first time was perfect, but the second time... well, yeah. Dissatisfied, I contacted him via Facebook Messenger with a photo, but nobody responded. Yes, it's a craft, but to cut your hair so badly... Save your money.”
