I've generally had "okay" experiences at this Great Clips, but the last haircut I received was, without a doubt, the worst haircut I've ever received. I think the person who performed the service was "Amy?" Nice person, excellent conversation, but I'll be wearing a hat for however many weeks it takes for this mess to grow out.
