Yelp.com Review - by M B.

1.0 of 5 stars. HORRIBLE. I wish it was possible to review with zero stars or half a star because I had the absolute WORST hair experience of my life at this place. Melissa, I was told, could touch up my roots and...

Yelp.com Review - by Brett A.

5.0 of 5 stars. Trim is pretty much awesome. Not only is it right in my neighborhood, relatively inexpensive for a high quality haircut (I don't consider $37 outrageous for a men's cut - in DC at least), but the...

Yelp.com Review - by Rahul S.

5.0 of 5 stars. So, there are really two factors that go into making a desirable hair salon; obviously, the quality of the hair cut is vital - that's why you're there. The oft-overlooked second is the ambience and...
