- To All Stylists: Summer Sale! Exciting Rewards! - 26 June 2026
A big hello to all our stylists! I’m Zack, the salon owner. With the Summer Sale just around the corner, we thought it’d be the perfect time to stir up a little excitement in the salon! Over the past few months, we’ve been reading your Steam reviews, community feedback, videos, and screenshots. We’re truly grateful to see so many players having fun with friends. That said, we’ve also heard your frustrations: unstable co-op connections, customers and items getting stuck, some late-game mechanics becoming overwhelming, and solo or duo play putting too much pressure on players.So for the Summer Sale, we didn’t want to just post a discount and call it a day.
