I had my first appointment for a shampoo, cut and blow-dry at the Empire Beauty School. Nae was my stylist and she was great! The shampooing was very relaxing and she took her time with the cut. I definitely recommend getting your hair done by Nae at Empire!

Barbra is one of the best hairstylists I’ve ever worked with. I will most definitely be coming back. She is kinda, patient, and funny. She went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with my hair and was honest with how it looked. She was not afraid or embarrassed to ask her instructors for help to make sure I got what I wanted and a good haircut. 10/10 experience.

My service was absolutely excellent . I made an appointment in the same day that I got the service. And I'm very happy with the way my hair turned out. My scalp feels great. I look great. I feel great. Miss Nae is the name of the young lady who did magic on my hair. Thank you.
