I'm not going to write a bad review because I've gotten a lot of good hair cuts here, but I need to leave some feedback:
Damon, you REALLY need to make a habit of verbally confirming what the client wants before cutting.
The last time I came in, I asked for a "2 on the sides" and walked out with a fade that I didn't want.
This time, I asked for "mohawk like the other times, 2 on the sides" and you buzzed off the back of my mohawk.
I think what would help is if you'd just re-state out loud exactly what you're going to do before beginning every haircut to make sure you and the client are on the same page. All the haircuts you've given me have...read full review
Loury is my go-to person! She knows how I like my hair, and she’s great company during the cut. I always look forward to booking with her. My previous stylists were okay, but my hair always grew out in an unflattering way - Loury at Floyd’s always leaves me with a great style, and it grows back in a super manageable way. I’m a busy person so the less frequently I need to come in the better, and I’m so thankful to have found such a great stylist who gets me!
Damon is incredible. He’s been cutting hair since 1993 and absolutely knows what he’s doing. I have dry, curly hair that I struggle to style in a masculine way. Damon figured out what I needed, went slow to ensure he didn’t take off too much, and let me be very involved in the process. I have not stopped getting compliments on my hair for 3 weeks from everyone around me (that’s never happened before!). If you’re looking for a masculine cut (and if you’re trans/queer!) ask for Damon.
