- GMGary MandrellaNov 20, 20255.0great haircut, very happy!
- MWMisti Hope WudtkeNov 5, 20255.0Just got the best haircut I've had in YEARS from Guy! He actually cut it that way I asked (I usually have trouble getting the stylist to cut it as short as I want in front). He also took his time, and was very deliberate and precise...I felt like I got a haircut that I would have paid 3x for at a salon. Great conversation too. I'll be back!
