Students in search of a hair salon need not look any further than the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union.

The Union Hair Salon is located in the basement of the Union and offers a wide-range of services for both men and women including hair cuts, updos, deep conditioning, crimps and weaves.

Natlie Freeman, salon stylist and manager, said Wednesday that while salon prices depend on the type of service requested, the prices are sure to be affordable and agreeable for students.

“Walk-ins are accepted if time permits, however, it is better to make an appointment,” Freeman said.

Freeman and Karen Burts are the salon’s two stylists and because of the small number of sylists Freeman said she prefers appointments because of the salon’s limited hours of business.

The salon is open once a week, every Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Freeman said that students who want to make an appointment at the salon can call 581-7148 during the salon’s buisness hours on Wednesday, and 581- 3616 when the salon is closed.

Kathy Engelkes, the assistant director of the Union, said the salon has been open since 1996 and is a benefit for all students.

“The salon provides great service and it is at such a convienient location for students,” Engelkes said Wednesday.
