CHOP Barbershop - Riverside, Jacksonville — Attraction in Jacksonville

Writing on behalf of my husband— he wouldn’t return. We booked an appointment with Jordan on the app and you’re required to input your tip to make the appt (though it doesn’t charge you til later or if you don’t show up). My husband showed up about 30 minutes early and the lady who took him wasn’t who we booked with, but she was also the only one sitting there on her phone the whole 30 minutes he sat there til his appt time. He has got many military-style fades in his life as he was in the marines but this was the worst one— it was like she took a razor from the back of his halfway up towards his ears and began the “fade” in the middle but the lines were obvious.

We sat waiting for about 30 minutes until our appointment time, in which time we only saw about 2 chairs completed as the stylists were all talking amongst themselves and were seemingly not concerned at all with getting customers turned over. Finally, about 15 minutes after our appointment time had passed, there were about 3 empty chairs and the stylist who had checked us in sat at the front desk, but did not address us at all to notify us to when he would be taken back for his haircut. We waited about 10 more minutes expecting to be taken back shortly, but chose to leave due to lack of communication as well as seeing the walk-ins taken...
