This is my very first yelp review but I feel like it's important for me to get on here and "yelp" about Leeba Salon. I've been going to Leeba for about 10 years (since I was a college student at...

I had an 11 am appt....you would think that a responsible person could wake up on time to get to work by 11, right? I am greeted by someone who has to stop cutting someone else's hair to attend to me. my stylist comes strolling in 15 minutes late, doesn't introduce herself by name and brings me to the back to give me the most superficial wash I'm sure I've ever had. And, not exaggerating, the wash chairs were the most uncomfortable I've ever sat in. My neck was killing me during the whole wash. So she seats me back down and I see her set aside a mangled black rag that I would only ever use to dust my furniture. If you're going to use a rag like that, don't let the customer see it!!! She asks me how I part my hair, I tell her and she proceeds to cut noticeably in a hurry. By the end of the cut, I noticed she had started to cut my hair as if I parted it on other side. I told her, she said, "oops, i'm sorry," and put the apron back on me and cut some more. The place is bad and the stylist was bad
