Scathing Review, For Free Because They Pissed Me Off aka Cost Cutters Sucks

I took the kids to get their hair cut today. Well, all but B - he really has no hair. The boy, though, was looking rather shaggy and the girls haven't had their hair cut since summer so they were due.

The last time I took the girls to get their hair cut, we went to Great Clips. The people that cut Sis and the Boy's hair did a great job, but the gal who cut Care Bear's hair was a nightmare. Now, I've had her cut my hair before and she totally butchered it. I know, I know, so why do I keep letting her do it. Well, I complained the first time - majorly - and got it fixed for free as well as my next hair cut for free. I decided to forgive and chalk it up to a bad day after she messed up my hair, and she cut my hair again - doing it just right this time. Thus, I let her at Care Bear's hair. I ended up taking Care Bear to the Academy of Cosmetology to get it fixed, and they did a WONDERFUL job.

So, we began just getting the kids hair cut at the Academy, because they really do rock! And you can't beat the prices, that's for sure.

The problem with the Academy is that they're only open from 9-5 and on Saturdays. They're closed most days the kids are out of school and we go to church on Saturdays. I tried, today, to get them in but the Academy was closed. We headed to a new hair place, Cost Cutters.

I left without getting all the kids hair cuts done. The woman there was rude and rough. She cut Care Bear's hair wrong and asked her if her parents were divorced. She ripped Sienna's hair out and shoved her head in the direction she wanted it to go. I had her fix Cara's hair and she took another chunk out. Then she says "Ok, get the boy in here." I said, "I think we're done." She said, "What about his hair cut?" I replied, "I think we'll go elsewhere."

Bloody hell! How hard is it to trim up some hair??? And for $12? I mean COME ON! It's kids hairstyles - and BOTH of them just wanted trims - not NEW styles. This woman was ridiculous. She could learn some manners and some chair side skill. Learning how to converse with people would be helpful, too. If cutting kids' hair is beneath her - perhaps she could move to a salon that doesn't cater to FAMILIES.

I took the Boy back to Great Clips in hope that one of our favorite stylists would be there. Thankfully, Jessie was and she was available to cut the Boy's hair. And for $3 less, too.

The moral of the story? Cost Cutters in Bozeman blows. We'll only use our favorite stylists at Great Clips. And we're SO GLAD the Academy of Cosmetology is there to clean up both of their messes.
