Pros: WOW the best colorist, hair extentions, highlights & cuts

I own four cars and two of them happen to be imports. As you can guess owning an import in Michigan isn’t exactly like owning and import over in California where the eye looks toward efficiency and reliability. Thus, when it comes to auto repair it is challenging to find a decent mechanic. However, University Foreign Car will get the job done right and the first time for a great rate. I’ve been really happy with them.

I am a huge zoo fan. I love the potter park zoo for a lot of reasons. I find they have the big cats that I love along with some of the exotic animals you can't always see. And the penguins are great to watch. The monkeys are always trying to entertain. You can sometimes feed the goats too. The food and gift shop are good too and a nice break. Don miss the bird and reptile house. It's a nice combination. A great place to picnic afterward too and feed the ducks on the water.

Potter Park Zoo is a 19-acre zoo very close to downtown Lansing. Because it is small, it is an easy walk for little kids, who won't get tired or cranky like they do walking through a big zoo, such as San Diego or even Detroit's zoo. Although it is small, it is a high-quality zoo accredited by the Assoc. of Zoos and Aquariums (only 10% of animal parks in the USA are accredited). You can see many rare animals, such as Siberian Tigers, Red Pandas, Black Rhinos, Tamarin Monkeys, and Grey Wolves. The zoo is currently undergoing a renaissance, and new exhibits are starting to be completed. For example, the zoo has a new river otter exhibit where you can see otters swimming on the other side of a large window. There is also a small but nicely done coral reef exhibit.
Potter Park has lots of fun stuff for kids, too. There are camel and pony rides during the summer, and the zoo offers classes for kids all year round. Just outside the zoo is a park next to the Red Cedar River. Here, you will find picnic tables and a big playground for kids, too.
The zoo has many special events scheduled throughout the year. During the winter holidays, there is Wonderland of Lights, which lasts from Thanksgiving through the end of the year. There is also Boo at the Zoo for Halloween, Migratory Bird Day, a yearly 5K fund raising run, and the Big Zoo Party.
Potter Park Zoo is in the middle of a densely-wooded area, and so in the heat of summer it is still nice and shady, and in the fall and spring it is quite lovely (gardens are found throughout the zoo). In the winter, because attendance is lower, there is free admission, but you can still see most of the animals.
In short, for a small zoo, Potter Park in Lansing offers a quality time for everybody.
Pros: Beautiful setting, lots of interesting animals, small size so easy to walk through
Cons: Some exhibits are showing their age

This pediatrician office is the best I have ever known. There are many doctors and staff that work together well to meet the needs of your children. Every single employee, be it office staff, nurses or doctors are extremely friendly and take the time to talk to the children as well as the adults. The hours of operation are friendly to parents and those who work because they open early and stay open into the evening to accommodate busy schedules. Saturday appointments are also available for sick children. The level of care and competency is tremendous. Could not recommend higher.

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

While a little but rudimentary for those who are old, that is as it should be.
This science center has a good amount of hands on activities for the kids, and I know my daughter was kept thoroughly entertained for a good period of time.
Anything to help the kids learn science, this is a great value considering the low cost!

I absolutely loved Pierre's. My mother even bought her wedding dress there. I don't remember the name of the woman that helped me but she was Asian and so cute. It's like she instantly was able to understand my personality and she became pretty quirky throughout the day with me. Dress shopping had become a little bit stressful until I went to Pierre's, where the whole day was just a day of fun. I had explained to her that I wanted a dress that was completely different from all others but still gorgeous. She brought me dress after dress and I loved them all. When she brought one in and antique gold color, I was a little hesitant about it but she pushed me to try it on anyways, swearing that I'd like it. I'm glad I gave in because it happened to be the dress I bought! She knew exactly what I had in mind and I hope she's there again when I look for bridesmaid dresses. It was a fabulous experience for me!
