- NJNikki JoyJun 23, 20251.0My family went to the la plata location last Tuesday June 17th. My husband and I got our hair cut by (forgive me if I butchered this) Charleigh. She was absolutely the best! Great at giving us exactly what we wanted. My son (4 years old) got his cut by the lady in the second chair on the left. She was awful. Very rude and short with my son. Got annoyed at him for moving, he was actually really good but is ticklish around his neck. Acted like we were inconveniencing her. We asked for a mullet cut and my husband asked her to take more off the sides. She said “that’s not what you asked for. You should have told me a mohaw. I think his time is up anyway.” Then she told my son “oh you going to the bathroom again. You need to wash your hands.” She was just rude and inappropriate. It made our whole experience very uncomfortable and unpleasant. She also was the same way with another little boy who she worked on after my son. I don’t even want to go back after the way she treated us.
