I found this provider on Angie's List. They were a bit out of my way but I thought they offered a good price and seemed knowledgeable about hemming sheers and curtains. 
When I arrived to dropped off my items I was nastily told that they were very busy and they couldn't get to them right away and it would be a week before I would get them. That was OK by me. I really didn't expect them right away. I was surprised at the rudeness and lack of business professionalism and friendliness of the lady who took my order. She seemed very put out that I was even there and taking up her time. Imagine! A customer that comes with an order! What an inconvenience! 
I tried to figure out what caused this reaction. I'm always an upbeat individual and try to always greet people with a simile and warm ?hello.?
The lady seemed to be from South America so maybe being short and rude was part of her culture? I couldn't image but there are cultural norms that don't carry over from time to time. I would think if your going to do business in this country, friendliness should be the order of the day for your customers. 
When I came to pick up my order she was a bit warmer but cold overall. If your customers are a bother you don't need to be in a customer focused business. My order was done very well. No issues there. They even ironed them. I'm giving them high marks for the workmanship but low marks for the customer service. I won't be going back again though. I don't think customers should ever be treated rudely. 
I would recommend them have this lady work in the back and not deal with customers.

I am thrilled that I found Magic Scissors through Angie's List. Even though I can do minor alterations such as hemming and hand sewing I don't have the time or skill to do much more. The staff is very professional and have the items done when promised or before.
In the spring they altered a prom dress for my daughter as well as a business suit and jacket. They fit her perfectly. I have since returned with more items of clothing and would recommend them to anyone who needs fine alterations.
They have recently moved closer to I 75 which makes it very convenient for me; traveling from Parrish.

I really liked the way the individual marked the alterations to be made. She used safety pins and I was really able to tell up front that the clothing would fit properly. She disclosed the pricing very clearly before I left and I think the cost is very reasonable for the service. I have already taken more items to be altered, so I would definitely go there again.

The lady who handled the measurements really knows her business which was evident in the results. I was also assured that specific suit alterations can be done, which I found was not offered at other tailor shops.
