I'm glad to see other East Tennesseans on here besides me..LOL If you can't find a place in Knoxville, I go to a place in Athens called Shear Touch. There is a lady named Donna who cuts mine and she has always done mine well and the way I want them. I wear a longer shag style similar to Elvis or David Cassidy and she does great. You could always look the number up and call her.
