The protective cape I was given before the haircut was sticky with sweat and had a horrible smell. I had to ask for another one, which also smelled, before finally being given a freshly washed one. This felt extremely unhygienic.
About the haircut, I explained what I wanted! Result: the right side is noticeably shorter than the left, with the back underneath even shorter. I only noticed after washing my hair, as the curls had hidden the unevenness. Honestly, the worst haircut I’ve ever had.
