I’ve had amazing experiences every time I have come but today I got the worst hair cut of my life, I’m not sure wether she didn’t listen to me or just doesn’t know how to cut hair, my hair was uneven, she blamed it on my cowlick but my mom evened it out in under a minute and she also does not know how to fade hair, they were cut way to short and one side isn’t even faded just bald, she cut way to high over my ear and then “faded” it from there and she also missed part of my sideburn. Overall just not impressed and will be wearing a hat for the next month
