Not sure Juana should be the manager , seems like she hates her job. By the time I walked in she was judging me with facial expressions. I also get tired of these quick in and out places to judge what we do with our hair. Sometimes we just can’t afford to get it done. Her first words was did you use box color. It’s not like you were coloring my hair because you guys don’t offer those services. You were there to cut my hair
Her attitude was blah , she got no tip from
Me. This is the second great clips business I have had bad vibes from. Other was in Wyoming She also didn’t go as I asked. I don’t even know why they ask. They just cut it any old way they want. Got no layers and no thinning. Not worth 20.00
