Signed in online and was in a chair quickly. Stylist was personable and asked questions and listened to what I liked in a haircut. She was great in styling my pixie cut.

If the hairstylist covers their own hair you should reconsider letting them cut cut yours.

Wanted to get a trim for Halloween, and mate, I don’t even half to wear a mask to look scary. My barber didn’t even know the measurements for her razor. She told me she was barely going to take some off, and now I got a buzz cut! Some of my hairs aren’t even cut! How does that even happen? I wanted the side of my head faded, and only the part above my ear was. Finally, when I was finished, the manager even had me sit down again because my original barber didn’t not do a good job! No refund or discount or anything!!! Come on mate.
