WORST FADE EVER!
Asked for a fade and the lady said I should do something else I insisted on doing what I came in for not what she said. I asked if she could do a fade and I guess she took it wrong because now my hair looks like I got into a fight with clippers in the dark. That’s what I get for trying to save time going somewhere else.

I have been going to this great clips for almost a decade now. I go between shaving my head and growing it out a couple inches on top. I get hair cuts very frequently and have had every stylist here cut my hair. I always get compliments on my hair and people are surprised I go to a Great Clips. The management team here makes sure to hire talented hair stylists. The manager Jay is super talented and I barely have to tell him what I want he can tell the moment I sit down.
My sister has long hair and also agrees that this GC location is the best in the area.

This is the 2nd (and last) time they butched my hair and refused to listen to what I wanted because apparently they know what is best for my hair, regardless of what i asked for. Today I very specifically stated I did not want any length taken off, I did not like what they did last time and I just wanted some face framing layers cut in but she insisted she had to fix the back and by the time she was done hacking my off there really isnt anything left to layer or frame my face with. 1st picture is from a couple nights ago, sad emoji pic is 20 minutes post haircut. She did the exact opposite of what i wanted.
