Those of you who have read my review of sportsclips know I like the concept and frequent the chain monthly. I even have come here before and had good experiences with another stylist. However, my most recent visit was horrendous. From the greeting to the end, I was disappointed but mostly with the final product. Here is what happened. 1) I arrived and even though I was the only one there besides those already seated, I had to wait while the girls chatted with each other. Then the stylist came over and took me to her station. Of all the girls I have had cut my hair at a sportsclips, this one was the worst. She didn't even try to engage me in conversation. I asked her to style my hair the way I always get it done, 1 1/2 on the sides and fingers pressed on top with blending. She tried to convince me her fingers were really small and I should get higher but I told her I wanted it short. When she first told me she was finished, there were at least two finger lengths and it was uneven. Probably the worst I have seen. I learned a long time ago to speak up or end up with unhappy cuts so I told her and she gave me a bit of resistance before trying to cut it shorter. I don't know if she didn't want to get close to her fingers or didn't care but she still didn't get it right. Even through the massage and shampoo I got the feeling she had no interest in her job, client or anything but the final paycheck. I still gave her my normal tip which is pretty generous and she didn't even say thank you or come back again.
I give it two stars because I have had other stylists here who have been better and I do like the sports screens and the hot (and now cold) towel treatment.
I wish I remembered her name, I remember only that I sat in the second seat from the rear on the left side of the store if you face the rear.
Oh, and if anyone cares, it has been almost a month and it grew in horribly uneven.
