I am extremely disappointed with my visit to this location today. I wanted a specific haircut, brought a picture and because my hair is curly, she immediately told me I won't look good with that cut. She was SO incredibly rude and pushy about it, I caved and settled for a layered cut. Hair stylists shouldn't be so obnoxious about a haircut. Let the customer be happy with what they chose. She also kept saying over and over how thin my hair was, also rude. I definitely do not recommend this location.

I now have to go pay someone else to fix my hair. And hope they can. Very unsatisfied I will never come here again. My hair is so uneven.

I went in for a simple trim, asked for ½- ¾ of an inch off, layers, and a little bit of face framing. I ended up with the worst haircut I have ever gotten. (before and after photos are added)

I’ve always got my hair cut here.
Just left from getting my haircut cut, told the man cutting my hair, I think his name was Don, that I wanted my hair to below my shoulders. I came in with long very curly hair to my lower back. I left with hair up to my ears. He tried to blow it out thinking it would be longer. Nope still way above my shoulders. I was in total shock, paid and even left a $5 tip.
I feel so ugly now and uncomfortable. I just wanna shave it all off at this point. I’m extremely upset. I know I should’ve said something then but there’s isn’t anything they could do anyways the hair was all on the floor at that point.
I will never be returning again.

They'll hire anyone most time you go to a haircut and it might be good the first time was the second time then you'll get someone that doesn't know what they're doing I told her I have calyx because I'm a twin I told her that I had two in the front two in
the back and she cut it too short on the back now my hair stands up on the back I'd recommend going somewhere else sports clips or a private owned barber shop The prices keep going up and the work they do is going down down down down down down down they need better people that work there that know what they're doing
