Walked in off the street in need of a quick clipper cut. There were two employees sitting there with nothing to do and no customers in site except for myself. Instead of welcoming me and offering me a chair, the woman at the counter starts to drill me with questions. For starters, she wants my phone number, which I refused to give, she gave me a huff and puff look of distain. And then (half ass backwards) she asks me for my first name, which I readily gave and then she wants my last name, I in turn refused to give. After that she wants to know my email address, again I would not give. She tells me that it is Great Clips policy to have all of that info (and then some) before I can get my haircut. I told her it was my policy not give any personal information just so I can get cheap haircut. Needless to say I walked out. This place is totally unprofessional.
