Poonam was so friendly and I was super happy with how well she cut my hair. She knows how to engage with her clients. I was initially hesitant as Poonam was temporarily replacing Fizz, who normally does my hair. However, this was the most pleasant experience I have had thanks to Poonam and would love her to maintain cutting my hair now.
