"I knew I wanted Gina to cut and color my hair, but she was booked out a few weeks. Would it be worth the wait? My hair already looked lousy. Oh yeah! Gina seemed genuinely happy to see me, in fact, everyone in the shop just seemed happy. Gina listened to me, her adorable assistant Julie, listened to me, then Gina meticulously set about coloring, using a jillion colors, then just as meticulously cutting my hair. It has been a week and I still love it and it is not a "salon do" that I can never recapture for myself, and maybe best of all, Gina took just as much pride in making someone my age proud of her look. I can't wait to come back. What a treat, What a shop. Thank you, thank you, thank you! " Nita F.
