My stylist was Martha and she was amazing!I have long wavy/straight hair. I asked for 1 1/1 inch off, no layers more a blunt cut in the back but not too thick/chunky at the bottom, if she could thin it out and she did it so well! I usually get my haircut at Great Clips and so far this my go to location.
