Tori, a transgender woman, performed the cut. She has soft hands and a calm, reassuring demeanor, but the mid fade result was patchy and did not deliver the smooth, clean appearance I requested. The lines were uneven, the blend lacked precision, and I left feeling self-conscious about the unevenness rather than confident in the style I asked for. I ended up wearing a baseball cap to hide the uneven areas while it grows out, which was frustrating and uncomfortable. I appreciated the effort, but the experience fell short on communication and execution—there wasn’t a clear plan or adjustments offered to fix the issues during the session. Now I feel ashamed to show my haircut. I’m not returning I’d rather shave my hair 🧑🦲
