    My cut neck

    I went in for a slight trim and he completely cut my entire head down an inch I showed him a photo of Brad Pitt and came out looking like pee wee Herman he also cut my neck really bad and sprayed pepper spray on it would not recommend Boris it was the worst haircut I ever received

    how my hair is supposed to look
    Henry D.

    I have been trying to find a new barber for the past year, ever since my barber of 6 years quit to become a real estate agent. I have tried many shops in the area, and most weren't bad, they just weren't "the one". Yesterday, I gave this shop a try since it was on my way home from work... I walk in and the place is pretty run down, everything looks old, and falling apart. There's no customers, just two barbers completely captivated by their phone to notice me at all. I stand there for a few seconds before I say something to get their attention, and one of them finally looks up, and immediately just tells me to go to Boris, and immediately goes back to his phone. So I go to Boris, sit down, and give him a detailed explanation of how I want my hair cut: comb over, 1 on the side, but fade it up so the hair at the top by the part is longer than the bottom to match the other side like it is right now, tapered in the back, long tapered side burns, half an inch off the top... first thing Boris does is a 1 all the way to the top, no fade whatsoever. He goes on to not taper my side burns at all, gives me a hard part that I did not ask for, then takes at least 2 inches off the top, maybe even 3, thins my hair out like crazy in his attempt to control my hair (which isn't hard to control...), and then globs on a ton of gel... on top of all of this, this hair cut took 45 mins, way longer than any other hair cut I've had in the past year, and it costs $22! All in all, worst haircut I've ever had, I am honestly considering shaving my head because it's so bad. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs.

    Seriously wheres the blending?

    Great service for value. Hot towel, straight razor trim, massage, and haircut. Little to no wait time. Courteous and professional.

    This was, without question, one of the worst barbershop experiences I've had in a very long time…read more From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt cold and unwelcoming. The staff's attitude immediately gave me the impression that customer service was not a priority. When I politely asked for some hair product and to wash my hands, I was met with an attitude that made me feel like I was inconveniencing them. The haircut itself was even more disappointing. The barber seemed determined to rush through the appointment, attempting to finish my haircut in about 10 minutes. I had to stop him because I wasn't happy with the result and asked him to fix it. Throughout the entire appointment, he made no effort to engage in even basic conversation. I tried several times to be friendly, ask questions, and make the experience enjoyable, but received almost nothing in return. I paid $70 for a haircut and beard service, and I genuinely feel like I wasted my money. The beard trim, which cost $30, lasted no more than two minutes and looked like almost no work had been done. The entire appointment felt rushed, careless, and completely lacking in attention to detail. I don't mind paying premium prices when the quality, professionalism, and customer experience justify it. Unfortunately, none of those were present here. Instead, I left feeling disappointed, frustrated, and regretting my decision to give this place a chance. With how difficult the economy is today, customers deserve businesses that appreciate their support and take pride in their work. Based on my experience, this barbershop fell far short of that standard. I cannot recommend this shop to anyone, and I will not be returning. If I could, I would give them a negative score from how bad the whole situation was. PLEASE, do no go here EVER EVER.

From…read morestart to finish, the level of professionalism, attention to detail, and customer care was exceptional. I came in for a full spa treatment, haircut, and shave, and Sam absolutely exceeded expectations. I have a very heavy beard, and he went the extra mile by performing a double shave to ensure the smoothest, cleanest result possible. The haircut was precise, the shave was flawless, and the spa treatments left me feeling completely refreshed. What truly sets Sam apart is his dedication to quality and making sure every detail is perfect. This wasn't just a haircut, it was a premium grooming experience. Easily one of the best barber and spa treatments I've ever received. Highly recommended for anyone looking for top-tier service and craftsmanship. Thumbs up for Master Barber Sam! Fresh haircut, luxury spa treatments, and one of the smoothest shaves I've ever had. Sam went above and beyond with a double shave for my heavy beard and delivered a first-class grooming experience from start to finish. If you're looking for professionalism, attention to detail, and exceptional service, Exclusively Men's Barber & Spa is the place to go.
