Nope. The woman that was initially checking us in was extremely rude. My young son and daughter were there to get haircuts. It was a last second decision to stop and get their haircut before we headed home so we just walked in the door without checking in online. I didn’t know this was such a big deal to them. Everywhere I have read says walk-ins are welcome. She acted completely inconvenienced by us. Rolled her eyes and huffed out her breath more times than I can count. There was only two other people in there at the time getting their haircut. I try to give people grace because everyone can have bad days so I tried to shake it off. You could definitely tell that she was trying to deter us from staying. She told me it was going to be a 25 to 30 minute wait, and said this in a way that lead a person to believe that she did not expect us to stick around and wait. But I told her we will wait. She was visibly upset by this. Less than five minutes later she called my daughter’s name, which wasn’t surprising because there were her and one other without any clients waiting and nobody on the waiting board at the moment. Everything felt short and clipped. The cuts were fine but both of my younger kids asked if we could never go back there and I said ABSOLUTELY we will never be going back there. Wow. None of the others even batted an eye at this lady’s extreme lack of customer service skills. How does that chick even have a job still?

I asked to just take off 2.5 inches all over. Bangs weren't cut at all. I think she just but around the edges. I am in my 60s so need eyebrows trimmed. Had to ask for that. The main problem, wish i could poat pictures that one side of my head the hair is above the ears and the other side half way down the ears. I always use great clips but never will go back not even if they gave me haircuts for life. Just that bad. Went in with my wife. Her trim and layer that she asked for was almost as bad. Worth about 10% of the 54 we were charged.
