Wow, A month flies by! It seems like yesterday that I was writing about my last hair cut by a very unfriendly hair stylist in Smart Style that reminded me of the late John Belushi's Samurai Warrior. In a month my hair grew fast and it was time for a hair cut. It was certain that I was not returning to the Samurai Hair Stylist. My best chance of avoiding a similar situation or a bad hair cut was to turn to Yelp. The reviews advised me to try the Eastern at Windmill (Smith's Plaza) Great Clips.
After a horrible hair cut that I had at a Great Clips years ago, I avoided that brand like the plaque. But if Yelp reviewers gave this Great Clips a good rating, then it was worth a second chance.
When I walked into this Great Clips it was a 180 change from my last hair cut at the Serene Avenue Walmart's Smart Style. They treated me like a human being and nicely had me fill out a form to be in their data base. Great Clips has entered the computer age. They encourage customers to use their smart phones to schedule appointments. This Great Clips utilizes the computer to remember your last hair cut. Maybe they could go a step foward and have a robot cut your hair. I'm sure that day will be coming.
My hair stylist Ginger was the antithesis of a robot or Samurai Hair Stylist. Disparite from the Samurai Hair Stylist who cut my hair at Smart Style, she explained to me the process the hair style she was going to give my hair and was very cautious in her work. Instead of shouting out, "head up" she was a good conversationist.
Nothing is perfect. And regardless that I am happy with the hair cut, I do have some slight constructive criticism. I feel that a shampoo and wash ought to be included. And that the hair cut should conclude with some styling gel.
I am happy with the hair cut. It looks good. And I am sure I will be reminded about it when Great Clips will send me emails after filling out the form.
