The woman who cut my hair did not follow my instructions. I asked to blend the sides of my at the back and instead cut all the length off. The back. Will not go back.

NEVER have Norma cut your hair. I came in for a bob and had the worst haircut experience of my life. Norma cut my hair super unevenly. During the haircut she did not wet or part my hair thoroughly at all. When I asked her to fix the unevenness it only got worse. She asked another stylist for help and the other stylist proceeded by bringing clippers to my hair. The second stylist thought removing my cape was a good idea and also ended up cutting the necklace I was wearing. I was there for over an hour and still left with uneven hair. My dad, who does not cut hair for a living, did his best to fix my hair because he saw how poorly my haircut was done.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
