Jocelyn, Is the best stylist I have ever had. After driving all the way to Detroit on a regular basis to get my hair done, I was grateful to find a celebrity stylist right here in Lansing that I could actually afford! She has done hair for Ebony Magazine and frequents national hair shows. She is also very good on keeping my hair healthy. She's very honest when I get a little "over ambitious" about new hair products and styles that may damage my hair. She can also cut amazing hair styles! I simply love this woman. If I ever move from Lansing, I'm taking her with me :-)!
Renee
Pros: Timely, Expert in Black hair care, up-to-date styles,
Cons: None!! She is FABULOUS!

I started using Lockworx when Frank first opened it a LONG time ago. I went in to get my very long and thick hair permed since it was the only way I knew how to wear it. He said no, you don't need it permed, I'll give it a good cut that will be nicer. I was stunned at how nice my hair looked!! He could have permed it and gotten a LOT more money out of me that day since my hair usually took two perms! I was impressed, and have been a pretty steady customer ever since. I moved to Holt for fifteen years, but went back after skipping around and never finding a stylist that cut my hair as well as the well trained staff at Lockworx. They always ask me about additional services, and I am glad they do or I would forget to have my brows waxed, etc!! I get compliments on my hair a LOT, and I know it is due to their professional advice and constantly upgraded skills. My current stylist is Mandy, and she is always suggesting new highlights, updates, etc to keep me current.
Pros: great parking, it is close, free, and next to Beaners!!
Cons: none

After scouring the bridal stores in Grand Rapids and finding nothing but the same thing, I headed to Lansing to check out what it had to offer. Letts Bridal was awful. It looked outdated, dirty and the people who worked there were very unhelpful and disorganized. Fantastic Finds was my next stop and it was the opposite! Michelle helped me find the perfect dress and made my shopping experience very enjoyable. I recommend Fantastic Finds to any bride. They have a great selection and great service to match! Unlike many of the Bridal shops around, Fantastic Finds actually looks classy on the inside and the dresses aren't just heaped around or shoved arbitrarily on a huge rack for you to scour through. Thank You Fantastic Finds!

... well not exactly for two bits, but about as close as you can get these days. If you're a real man and don't go to one of these sissy "hair salon" places when your mop needs a trim, you should definitely head over to the Frandor Barber Shop. Be prepared for a throw-back to at least the early 70s and I'd say even further back than that. Lime green walls, some super ancient guy shining shoes off to the side, and a bunch of dirty old men telling jokes. It doesn't get any better. I prefer to sit in Phil's chair when he's there, but anyone at the Frandor Barber Shop will do.

They like to make you think one thing and then do another. Some examples:
(1) Came in because I had a coupon for a free trial, no strings attached. However, strings were attached, they told me if I did not sign up that day that they would not give me the special promotional rate. Suckered in.
(2) Wanted a session or two with a personal trainer but I had to negotiate and still ended up buying six. A week later I get a coupon in the mail for a free session (grr).
(3) I have showed up to exercise classes before and if it's only me the instructor will cancel it :( and be like 'that's not all you came for was it?'
(4) they stereotype members and then assign them to personal trainers based on that. They stuck me with the woman trainer who works with obese and old people (I am a young and fit female but not very strong). I don't even like working with her, don't feel like I get much out of it.
(5) They like to keep the gym clean which is a plus, but they mop right literally around where you're working out with strong harsh smelling chemicals
(6) And the last reason, which is why I am writing this tonight, is because I was kicked out of the gym due to the MMA fight next door. They let me into the parking lot when I said I was coming to workout, but a 1/2 hour into my workout a different guy came up and told me they were closed because they were promoting the fight (even though I was not disturbing anyone). They have also canceled exercise classes to accommodate the new MMA schedule, put down permanent MMA mats in the aerobics room which don't work for the step class
(7) Oh yeah, and they play their music too loud for my taste
Pros: Equipment, Facility
Cons: Management
