Starts off a little slow but this is the third time I'm playing it through and it's nice to start over at the beginning again. I just hope this time, there's more to the game than previous times playing it. Decent time waster but there are bits where you just have to watch it and wait for points to stack up. Ads aren't invasive which is nice.

This game is great. The art is good and the characters and stories are a good way to keep the game feeling fresh and interesting. I just wish there was more to do maybe add a set of daily objectives or long term goals for players that have gotten the maximum amount of reputation. The game is pretty short and we haven't gotten a update in a long time which makes the game feel like progression has completely stopped. Like many other reviewers I don't see the point of keeping the app installed.

I loved this game. I usually just like idles but this one had a pretty good story (except the English translation mishaps) and made it exciting to level up. I'm at the end of where I can be because there hasn't been an update in over a year now. If they continued, I would love to continue. I will keep it on my phone for a month however if they don't update it (like I don't think the creators will since they haven't posted any kind of updates for over a year) then I will be getting rid of it.

Very cute game with a simple but endearing story. You can even choose the mian character's love interest to also be a man so it's gay love. Kudos 👏👏👏👏 Each stylist has their own story and background which you get to learn about so 10/10 for that. It's less of a money grubbing tycoon game and more of a relaxing app to do in your off time. But it's still addicting so watch out 😂! I was pleasantly surprised and will keep on playing! Can't wait for more story to release!

I've played so many tycoon games and this one I was by far having the most fun. Till I got to 300 rep and started the story part. It keeps freezing and I can't get past it no matter what I try. Force close, clear cache, and I don't want to try starting over just to get to the same point and it happens again. Super disappointed. I usually spend money on these types of games to. Glad I didn't.

Really enjoy this game. HOWEVER there has been multiple times where I will open the app, and see the money accumulated and I want to 2x with an add. The add won't pop up to do so and I'm forced to close the game out and when I reopen, ALL of the money that accumulated is gone. Then I'm left with the amount I had 4 hours ago after upgrading everything. Which is no money at all. I don't really leave reviews but this is something I had to say because it is SO frustrating!!!

I really do enjoy playing this game, it's cute and fun, has an intriguing story line, plus, it doesn't force ads every 60sec, but game play has stalled. I've maxed the barbers, maxed the furniture, maxed reputation, I've got more coin than I can spend, there's literally nothing left to do except wait for updates. It's been nearly 2 months and occasionally I'll check back to see if anything new has been updated, but it's just taking up space on my phone at this point. ☹️

I didn't play very long but I noticed the game just plays itself. You can upgrade your chairs and that's it. And if you can't get to the people in line they leave. But there's no way to speed up a haircut or speed up a checkout. Literally had customers leaving while I was checking out other customers and they were next in line. That's kinda broken since the game doesn't provide a way to prevent that. Needs a lot more updates before it gets better. Story is great though.

Want to say 5 stars but, I have one issue that I'm currently facing. I play these idle games often, and learn the algorithm to play smoothly and effectively. I'm in the early start of the game where I need to launch an ad. I already maxed it out and meant to launch it but didn't. Now the game refuses to let me continue until I follow the tutorial. I figured the system would automatically register it but was wrong. I'll wait for an update to fix this or I'm deleting it if the response isn't soon.

Graphics are good. Story line is cute.but it relys to much on the story line. I love a faster approach to things. For instance it took several levels before I get a new chair. And prior to that it was the same slow pace. Only thing that breaks it up is the story line but it isnt enough to keep me.
