Kathleen needs a serious raise. Never had a hairdresser as good as her. Very clearly wanted to make sure I got the haircut I wanted, and even gave me a coupon! Plus she looked over my previous haircuts before asking me, which none of my great clips hairdressers had done. Not sure how good the others are, but Kathleen is an amazing hairdresser.

Went there for a cut and every time I show them a picture of the cut I want they always make it so short like the image is basically just cut around the side and the top a small trim where you have hair covering your forehead and now it’s so short only one person gave me the cut I want here but everyone else always keeps cutting this time I thought it would be different cause I was told they had the notes from my last cut but nope
