Avoid this place if you need anything done besides a clipper cut or fade. A years worth of hair growth was lost.
Long story:
I was a year into growing my hair out and it was growing longer in the back into a sort of natural mullet. I spoke on the phone and in person with Sam that I wanted my hair cleaned up and trimmed so I could continue to grow it out and so it would NOT be a mullet. I had the same conversation with an out of state barber and the haircut was executed correctly; just a trim. I was very clear that I did not want a mullet and only wanted a trim. I was told confidently that it could be done and he would trim my hair so it could continue to grow. I got exactly what I did not want, which was a weird mullet. I was told the hairs on the side of my head needed trimmed. I followed the recommendation of the barber since I don't cut hair and it is not my expertise. What I got was a short clipper used high on the side of my head and on the back of my neck leaving me with a very odd mullet that had long hair on top and the back of my head but very short hair on the sides. Sam then tried fix it when I told him it doesn't blend very much and looks a bit like a mullet. He cut an inch of hair from the back and some on top by my request to try and even it out. The scissors cut here was straight across the hair like Dora the Explorer with long missing strands. I was told after the haircut by the barber that I should have gone to a salon for the trim and that they could layer it since he couldn't. I was also told much later I needed to be more clear with what I wanted. This doesn't make sense because I said I wanted a trim and NOT a mullet and what I got was a weird mullet. I then left and noticed on my way home that part of my beard on the left side of my face was not faded.
If the haircut can't be done by the barber, be up front and tell the customer. Don't attempt it, ruin someone's hair, and then tell them afterwards they should have gone somewhere else and that you can't do it. At least they refunded me, but I had to go to another barber to fix my hair and cut the rest of it very short. Goodbye to a years worth of long hair. read more
