- CWChrista WatsonDec 31, 20255.0Decided my hair needed cut before New Year’s so I risked it with great clips- man did that risk payoff! James has 40+ years of experience and absolutely slayed my request! I wanted a bob type cut and was probably shedding 6-8 inches of hair in the process. I will go see James again!!
