My hair is very uneven. This is probably the worst haircut I’ve ever received. One’s side is longer than the other , the top is uneven. Makes me want to cry when I look in the mirror.

Do yourself a favor and go to an actual barber. 20 dollars to get someone who’s underpaid, barely trained who couldn’t care less what they do to your head.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
