- MIMahesh InalaNov 2, 20251.0Today me, my son and my wife went to Great Clips Cluster road and and canceled my and my wife’s haircut after speaking with them, not happy with the conversation with the staff
- FJFrancesca Deez nut jokesOct 29, 20251.0i got my haircut WAY too short. for reference it reached my hips and i have 3b-3c hair and i asked her for layers and only an inch off the ends but when i get done with the hair cut i checked and its js a few inches past my shoulders. This is so frustrating because obviously my hair means alot to me and i trusted her with a simple task. i am beyond disappointed, growing healthy long curly hair takes AGES because of shrinkage and i put alot of work into it and now that half of it is gone it feels like i lost a part of me. i know to some people hair doesn’t mean much but this is years of my life im talking about! i am just really frustrated and disappointed because no matter how much i complain i cannot get my hair back right now.
- ATAzure turtleOct 28, 20251.0I am scared and never going to visit again. hated that the stylist was so rough despite my politely warning her beforehand that I had a very sensitive scalp. Is this a salon or where people go to get assaulted? She simply did a nervous laugh as though it wasn’t possible and next thing I knew I felt like 25% of my bodyweight was being hauled she “thinned” my hair and removed volume..getting the curtain bangs felt like getting my hair roots plucked one by one. And then after I went home and showered, CLUMPS of my hair fell out and I was scared and thought my alopecia restarted (it didn’t, I checked).
