| - Been a regular client of June's for years, even though it likely doesn't make sense to anyone I know why I still pay a hairdresser at all anymore, when I have a fraction of my hair left. I keep going back because however crappy I feel about the state of my scalp, or how old it makes me feel, I can trust that June will make it look a hundred times better. And I'll feel a hundred times better. She takes the time to carve cool designs in the short cut that I get, which is always entertaining for my coworkers who wouldn't dare do it themselves. I'm always amazed at how she can shorten part and make the rest seem thicker, reducing that awful contrast between my dark hair and white scalp. She manages to blend it all together so it doesn't look like I'm trying to trick everyone with a comb over.
Recently, June started carrying a product line because of how I and a couple of her other male clients were in the dumps over our thinning hair. It's nice she tried to understand the frustration and spent time researching which products could help.
It's not very often that I come across a professional who really cares and puts a lot of effort into all the little details. I've never heard of anyone else arriving to work early to cut up fresh cucumber, so clients can have more than a plain glass of water. If it was my business, I'd never bother having all that tea (I'd tell people to go to Starbucks across the street) or a stash of kids movies and portable DVD player to keep the little ones occupied. Most businesses wouldn't notice if their clientele was too warm or too cold, much less care. June got an electric fireplace and installed air-conditioning.
And you can book online! I never remember during the day 'cause work gets busy, but you can bet I'll think about it at 11pm and be happy I can actually book it then. This makes a huge difference and I wish everyone offered this, but they don't because they don't care as much as June.
