I went there on Veterans Day for a free haircut and the person who cut my hair did not pay attention to what I had said. He asked me how I want it cut but he didn't listen. I guess when I had sat down to get my hair cut, suddenly there was a line in the waiting room which I guess prompted him to cut my hair however he liked and boot me out the door in less than 10 minutes. I get it. It's a free haircut. I shouldn't complain much but if you're not gonna cut customers hair properly even though you advertise to do it for free for certain individuals then maybe don't do it at all. I mean. All I said "High and tight. Skin. Inch on the top." Thought it was a simple military har cut. Didn't ask for anything addition than that.
