Went in for a haircut, gave multiple reference photos and asked if they needed to see it more to know how to cut it, they looked at one once, said they didnt need it, and then trimmed my hair much shorter than what i wanted, insisting she knew what she was doing. These people dont listen and they dont care about making your hair look nice, $20 for a haircut i couldve done better myself at home with a pair of safety scissors. Now i have to go somewhere else and spend even more money. Never coming back.

I showed a picture and clearly asked for the same haircut, but she did it completely differently. It looks messy and unattractive. I'm very disappointed and not satisfied with the result."

This was the worst place I've ever gotten a haircut. I asked for a fade on the sides, but the result was terrible uneven and completely unbalanced on both sides.
