Starting November 2nd...

Answer: Communication, communication, communication, I cannot say it enough.  I know I may sound like a relationship counselor or your wife or girlfriend, but truthfully, the only way to get a great haircut is to explain what you want carefully.  I always appreciate when my clients have a picture of what they would like.  Also, make sure your barber or stylist listens and can confidently...
