Ive literally just had my haircut at your barbers and I’m actually appalled by the service I got from the lady that was in today! The cover to use to catch hair was extremely filthy.
Ive been coming years to… this place and never have I ever had a haircut so rushed in my life! This also happens last month when I came but thought to give it a second chance! The line for the parting is not straight, I know we are still in “covid” times but I was asked to sanitise my hands with attitude, yet the lady didn’t, no hello just “do you have a booking” thinking
