I came in as a walk-in customer hoping to take some length off my long, very damaged hair, and get a cute layered cut. I don't get my hair cut that often or I have stylist friends cut it, so this was a big thing for me.The first stylist they set me up with did a meh job.Normally, I would just leave a negative review but I ended up being really pleased with their customer service and the second stylist's cut correction.I initially told the first stylist I wanted a modern looking messy textured bob, with long layers and razored ends, and she cut it almost all one length, the cut line was weird and uneven (not on purpose), the layers themselves were blended poorly. The end result didn't frame my face or fall right, plus the razoring that was done did nothing to eliminate the heaviness of my hair or the damaged ends. Plus She did the razoring on dry hair instead of wet hair, leaving full and frizzy chunks behind and a weird cowlick instead of sleek and tapered fringe.Everyone has an off day, or a customer whose hair they don't understand, plus I'm owning that some of it was poor communication on my end...So I gave the salon a chance to correct the situation.The manager called me back within the day and was apologetic and super nice and immediately set me up with a different stylist, their resident razoring expert, Maritza. My experience with Maritza was amazing! She listened to my needs, and intuitively knew just what to do even when I couldn't articulate it perfectly. She went right to work. She is a pro with that razor. I sat there feeling like I was being worked on by Edward scissorhands. After a flurry of expert snips, I ended up with a stunning layered bob, that frames my face beautifully and feels healthy.Despite the disappointing first visit, this really is one of the better JCP salons I've ever been to. They have great customer service, and really some really talented people here. My advice is to just figure out what you want and do your research ahead of time to figure out which stylist is right for your needs beforehand. Read Less
