And he rudely replied that he was the barber "do you see anyone else here?" I instantly got weird vibes because of how blunt he was . I asked if he can cut my three year old son's hair and he said "I don't k know it depends if he moves alot . Why do you ask a question that I cannot answer yet?" I say sorry and explain that im only asking because not all places take toddlers. He then keeps asking me rudely like im stupid " have you ever been to a barber shop before?" I feel so bad.

First you should know this is actually "North End Barber Shop", even though it is listed as "Mike's…read moreBarber Shop". Jay is the current owner, and has been cutting my hair for several years. He is a true professional who takes a great deal of pride in his work. I can tell him I want my hair to look good for a business trip one week from now, and he knows exactly what to do. The shop itself still has that old-school barbershop feel. I personally refuse to have my hair cut in any type of "salon" -- let alone some discount chain. It's also in a great location, directly across the parking lot from the Boise Co-op.

Ok, so, I was pretty excited to go here. Well, my regular barber, packed up and moved up north...to…read moreCascade. I was in NY for a few weeks, came back and he was gone. You could basically see the tears billowing under my eyes when the owner of the shop told me, "Johnny is no longer with us. He packed up and moved to Cascade to start a cab company" My heart stopped for a second...or two. It was awful news to come home to. I had to find a new barber. I was starting to look like a hippie (not that there is anything wrong with that. Its just not who I am...anymore lol) So, I go to North End Barber Shop. I had noticed this place a few months prior to my visit. I thought, oh how cool...another small barber shop. Its small, homey, like a mom and pop shop. Kinda reminds me of the barber shops back home in NY, or the one Johnny worked at (Jacks Barber Shop on Overland). So, I decided to finally check it out. I waltz in, excited to get mah hair did. There was a big dude there, not sure what his name was...you'll know him when you see him though. Big, jolly, guy. Very nice. Anyway, he took me right away. There was also an older woman working there. I believe there is one other guy who works there, but I over heard he was out, due to an injury. I tell, Big Guy, "ok so, I want it buzzed on the side...pretty much down to skin...high up and then faded in perfectly. Kind of like a military cut...just the fade in needs to be perfect"..(Johnny was a master at this. YES! I loved Johnny haha! He was the man and knew how to cut hair...but I digress....) So then, I tell Big Guy, just a little off the top. He did great with that. I gotta keep on top what I have left HA!!...Thankfully though, I have a lot. Not losing it that fast, but ya know. THEN! OMG! He buzzes the sides, the lines don't match up, one side of my head had a piece where he buzzed way too high...didnt match up with the line on the side. Then, the fade....seriously? I couldn't even call it a fade. I LEGIT looked like a militant lesbian version of Shia LeBouf without that ratty ass tail he has.... and with the lines I had....which were supposed to be faded....it looked like I had a bowl on my head....like Shia LeBouf! I looked like the militant lesbian Shia...who lived in the Amazon and who should be scaling trees for exotic fruits and things. It was tragic. He told me, "its really hard to fade these lines in the way you asked" Ok, I'm sorry, but why are you are a barber? Tell me again how this happened? Like I said, nice guy, very straight forward. I said I wanted one thing done and he said "oh no, I think that would look awful! I personally think that point in the pack looks hideous on people" So much for trying a new and weird look. OH MY GOD! I JUST WANNA BE A HIPSTER, OK!??!!! haha! jk! They are the worst. Again, nice guy, straight forward. Dream crasher :-/ He tell you what is good and what is not.....but then he will leave you looking like a big ole militant lesbian version of Shia LeBouf. Thankfully, my roommate, used to cut hair back in the day and was able to fix it....somewhat. I mean, it was that bad. Thank God I am not a 12 year old....I would seriously be getting my ass beat everyday for the next 2 weeks!!! UGH! haha! Be Aware of this place!! or just of him! The nice lady there...she seemed to know her stuff. I watched her as she did another guys hair....I wished I had waited for her...buuuuut, it was my first time there. First.....and last.
