    I love Vivica so much that is why I am so sad that this movie was so disappointing. Too campy and a Beautyshop rip off. V is so much better than this. Tragic.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Despite all the stock characters and scenarios, Fox and company manage to bring things to life. And cut some hair. full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post

A feeble dramedy about a Baltimore beauty shop where someone should come in to sweep up the clichés. full review

    I thought it was pretty good myself since the only that was the saving grace in this film was Vivica A. Fox and Kim Whitley. Even with an cast that included Monica Calhoun,Terrance Howard,Dondre Whitfield,Taral Hicks,and Darrin Henson and Garrett Morris. Filmed on location with magnificient shots of the Baltimore Harbor area. Not your typical ghetto style flick but was excellent btu it was a cut above the usual fare of movies about the hair business.

    FYI: Vivica A. Fox was not only the star in this but served as executive producer and one of the writers.
