As usual, an excellent haircut. The only thing that would make it better is if I had a coupon. I usually get one in the mail but it is usually many months before I get a coupon.

She showed me 3" that she would cut off but in reality she cut over 6". There is not one layer in my hair when I asked for long layers. I look ridiculous! She told me "it will grow back". Please don't get your hair cut here unless you plan on hiding for the next 3 months.
