Completely messed up by BRENDA!
No proper communication. She is not even aware of the dimensions of the blades of which is longer and shorter. That’s scary. There should be basic training that has to be provided.
I would strongly not recommend her to anyone. This is at Great Clips, 22321 Pontiac Trail, South Lyon, MI 48178
