Stylist with the short spiky hair clearly doesn’t enjoy her job, especially doing kid cuts. It appeared the ANGLED bob I wanted for my kiddo was too hard to do and she should have said so - I would have gone elsewhere no problem. But instead she cut a Dora the explorer bob. And didn’t even use any detangler spray when brushing my daughter’s hair. I even asked the other worker to help out and she declined. Poor people skills and unhappy environment. How about you smile and make convo other than “don’t move”…… Here’s the inspo pic and the lazy UNangled bob she did. I even kept expressing I was unhappy and wanted the picture during the process and she still couldn’t deliver.

I was traveling for a visit with my daughter and family. I decided to stop at Great Clips near my destination to get a haircut. I was fortunate to get Carissa for my haircut! She did a great job with my hair and conversation that definitely will want me to return for my next haircut!
