Supercuts in Oldham stands out to me in a way which businesses don't want to stand out in, which sadly means this branch becomes my fourth one star review in a row, which is something I hope to end very soon.
Supercuts is a brand which needs no introduction, being huge across the globe especially in the USA, but for me one of the biggest pros advertised about Supercuts is the price and service, and none of them seemed to be good here.
Let's start with the price, £14.95 for a dry cut if ridiculous, especially for the centre of Oldham where you could get dry cuts around a third or half of that price, that's around the sort of price you would pay in Manchester city centre, and even then it would still be expensive, which shows that especially for the location the price is ridiculous compared to rivals nearby.
On my visit, there was a very unfriendly staff member, who was the only woman working, she refused to hold my place in line, despite seeing me walking past two or three times as I didn't want to wait, and they didn't seem really busy, this is a frustrating policy as she seemed really slow in doing her work, and refused to even phone me and give me the chance to come, if she was free, or make an appointment, knowing i was just having a coffee downstairs at Rhode Island.
Inside, it doesn't seem really nice either, the decor is a bit poor and it isn't the nicest of places and is less modern than you would associate with other Supercuts branches, which makes me feel this branch is getting second-class treatment compared to branches in better locations, while still charging the same price with shoddy service, I sadly feel this is going to warrant a one star, and I'm sad to continue this run of four one star reviews in a row from the reviews I have written. read more
