Well trained my butt every time I go here it is the worst cut I have ever gotten in my life they need some more schooling or to actually take there time and not rush a haircut and maybe do what you ask and not what they want to do. If zero stars was an option that’s what I would give. I wouldn’t come back for free haircuts for life. 0/10 do not recommend coming here go spend the extra money elsewhere. Oh and don’t even get me started on the beard that they botched
