CLOSED NOW - Opens at 9:30am

Closed over a year ago. Business is vacant but doorways are available for Salem's thousands of vagrants.

This school is family owned which, usually, would be a good thing, however; Gene snook, the owner, Mike Snook, his son, Julie Snook, Mike's wife and their two children, instructors, are perhaps the worst family to ever own and operate a business. They treat their students like mules. They are not allowed to refuse any client even if the student can hardly contain their vomit due to the smell of a client. If they do refuse, they are suspended. If any one of the family members has an issue with a student, they all do. Some students are well liked by the family, usually the ones with alot of money and expensive material objects, and may be allowed to do as they please. some of them even go as far as out loud flatulence! It is extremely unprofessional, not to mention disgusting and rude. While the students who are disliked, for numerous reasons such as; low incom, employment status or position, or even just pure prejiduce, can never seem to get off of the "Snook raidar".

Our whole family gets their hair cut there. We have been going there for years. With one exception, we have always had good cuts there. An instructor always comes by and does a "hair check" and makes corrections (if necessary) before the cut is complete.
