One of the challenges of being on the road is getting a good haircut when you need it. It's…read moreespecially important for me because I serve as my agency's spokesman so I have to look at least presentable at all times. Rolling into Reading in need of a trim, I sought out Anthony's based on great Yelp! reviews. I was very pleased with the results! Regulars may have a favorite but I took potluck. I told my barber what I wanted and she said, "Yes, I can tell your style." I thought it was great that she read me correctly. She gave me a solid cut and didn't hesitate a moment when I asked for the top to to be shortened a bit. Excellent service, and if I'm still in town in a month, I'll definitely go back!

Anthony's Five Butchers - I'll admit I should've known. I used to get my haircut here in high…read moreschool and they can't help themselves but give every man a high and tight buzz. I was home visiting and badly needed a cut before vacation. I figured it had been 10 years surely things must've changed. I went in, showed how I wore my hair (plenty to brush back) and asked for just a trim with scissors and he agreed to keep it nice and full. After seeing all my hair falling down the drape I even thought "wow do I really have that much hair?" He spins me around and - the butchers strike again. He must've taken more than 2.5 inches off and gave me a high and tight buzz like I'm a sergeant in the military. My head looks like an egg. No more brushing my hair back since it's so short it can only stick straight up. Please learn from my mistakes and stop trusting these guys. (Unless you do buzz cuts then they're fine)

We usually love this place! I have an elementary aged son who is very particular about his hair and…read morethis is his barber shop of choice for years. Today, we booked with Amaya Serrano and my husband must have entered the wrong appointment time because he ended up showing up 10 minutes late. Despite being confused and apologetic (he thought he was on time) Amaya was very rude and dismissive. She was visibly annoyed and insistent that only an abbreviated cut could be done due to timing. This was an otherwise empty shop at the time. I can understand time constraints, and even being turned away due to being late, but what I can't understand is the lack of kindness and lack of customer service in general. We will be spreading the word about Amaya at fine linez.

Also there are several beverages to choose from if you get there a little early. I have always had a pleasant experience here.
