The stylist butchered my hair with clippers like a man's haircut. I showed her a Pic prior to the cut. I didn't expect her to cut my hair exactly but the back of my head, the hair is about 1/2 in in length. Its going to take a long time to grow it out. I feel like i look like a man. I wouldn't recommend great clips to my worst friend. I look like hell and I'm embarrassed. Once she cut it, it was over. I had to let her finish. The first thing she did was run that clipper up the back of my head. Now I'm angry.

I saw Shelby again. She is wonderful and always does a great job with a joyful attitude. She helped to convince me to do a drastic haircut back in July and I love it. I’ve received lots of compliments on my new style. Hope she doesn’t leave this location but I’d probably follow her if she stays local.
