      Basically, the type of haircut you get depends on who's working there that day. As a guy, my hair's pretty easy to cut. Pretty hard to screw up a haircut on a guy! My girlfriend went in with me for a haircut too (she normally gets haircuts from a salon up north, but desperate times called for desperate measures), and she hated what they did to her hair. She asked for layers, and the lady gave her almost what looked like a bowl cut, lol. She went back the next day to get it fixed, and the other lady did a much better job with it.

      Suffice it to say, I will not be bringing any car back to this auto shop ever again. Don't get me wrong, the front office guys were really friendly and were able to book me in right the next day. Really friendly autoshop, but I'm not going to let friendly people rip me off!

      Once it came time for my appointment, it took them over an hour and a half to get back to me with what was wrong with the car. All I came in for was an oil change, and to get a recommendation on why my breaks weren't working as well as they normally did in the past. Finally after the 1.5 hours, they told me that it would be over $700 to get my back and front breaks repaired! They even tried scaring me by telling me not to even attempt taking the car onto the highway, because the break pads would give out.

      I said no thanks to the job, and left. They also made me pay around $50 for the break exam (which according to other mechanics, should have been free or at a much lower price).

      You know the best part of this whole thing? This happened sometime back in February or March. Three weeks ago I went to a different auto mechanic in Carbondale for a standard oil change who told me that my break and fuel lines were so badly rusted that he was surprised that they haven't given out yet. He even brought me into the shop and showed me the rusted lines. They were...pretty damn bad to say the least. WHY did the Auto Shop not tell me about these badly rusted break lines? They tried shoving $700 worth of new equipment in my face, but they did not tell me about a possible danger in the car?

      I figured out why my breaks were bad on my own...there was something stuck between the break pedal and the floor of my car. As soon as I removed it, I was able to break as I had done before. There was never a problem with my break pads to begin with.

      So my car made it another 10,000 miles from the time I took it in back in February or March and the break pads didn't give out. I traded the car away last week for a much better one, so that I didn't have to worry about fixing it up. However, there's no way I'm taking my new car into this shop.

      Nothing but overly priced garbage. Having had skin problems my whole life, I've used a lot of different products. However, none of those other products ever managed to make my skin WORSE like the salcoll collagen exclusive cream did. I used the skin product as directed for about a week, and my skin broke out in really bad rashes. Fucking ridiculous to pay so much for a cream that winds up making your face worse! Not to mention how much they charged me for shipping the damn thing to my house!

      There's honestly so many other, better creams out there on the market. Buy from this company at your own risk!
