No longer what it used to be - service-wise.

I arrived at 5:30 for a 5:45 appointment. I waited. Others arrived later than me. When it was already 5:50, they called someone who just arrived minutes before. So I told them I have a 5:45 appointment. 1 woman got annoyed and she happened to be the one who would cut my hair. She shampooed my hair super quickly and carelessly. Cut my hair, then asked for additional 3 dollars for the shampoo! OMG!!!

In the past, they would rinse my hair, and give a quick message after hair cut, and I would voluntarily give 5$ tip. Now, I just didn't wanna do it, and she just really asked for 3 dollars extra. I don't mind, but it was obvious she was just annoyed that I reminded them loudly of my appointment after they served a customer who arrived later then me. In fact, she never bothered to give a quick pat or massage(not important but made it obvious that she didn't want to serve me).

Also during the haircut session, I felt super awkward and uncomfortable, knowing she didn't really wanna serve me.

I will not go to A's again. Will look for alternative barbershops. Bye A's!
