WORST HAIR CUT
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

04/22/2008 Posted by bnicoled328

WORST HAIR CUT EVER BY IRMA. Irma was unprofessional (left me sitting in a chair for five minutes while she cleaned up, put things away, then left me standing there while she argued about some bill with a co-worker), she doused my head with water so she could charge me extra for drying my hair, when I think a spray bottle would have sufficed. I don't know much about haircutting, but even I know when you ask for a one-inch trim and you have layers, you don't just start chopping without dividing the hair into sections, which is what she did. Somehow one inch turned into about a 6-inch "trim". Then I said, um, I wanted a trim, and I had layers, so can you trim the shorter layers? Without even ASKING where I wanted the layers to start, she started hacking away half-way up my head with a razor. She didn't look at my hair dry to see what it looked like, see where the layers were. She did not even remotely listen to what I said. My hair is BUTCHERED, and now I have to go get another fix-it cut. It looks like a four-year old cut it--there is a HUGE chunk of layer--it looks like a two-tier cake in the back. Nothing gradual or blended about the layers. Worst haircut EVER, and she charged me as much as my UES hairstylist does. DO NOT GO TO IRMA. The receptionist there was rude as well--it would have really inconvenienced her to smile and say, thank you.

Pros: Starbucks around the corner

Cons: The bad haircut you'll get
