Kev can cut his a*s off!…read more Kevin's attention to detail is exactly what I've been looking for in a barber. The confidence in his skills definitely show when my cuts look great and last longer than expected. I've been to shops throughout every part of the city, Chicagoland area, and NWI and I'm sticking with Kev. The vibe and positive energy in the shop is also key.

I've been going to Joel for about 5 years now and I have been satisfied with his service up until…read morerecently. There were two incidents in total that has made me determine to never go back to him again. 1. I booked an appointment specifically with Joel on Saturday, but when I got there Joel wasn't even present. I even texted him prior to the appointment to make sure he was there. I was a little confused when I saw that Joel wasn't present, but his apprentice offered to do my hair cut instead. I wasn't happy, at the thought of paying a premium for an amateur when I had specifically booked an appointment with Joel. This was pretty unprofessional but I let it slide. The hair cut wasn't even that great, but I still paid the same amount I would've paid Joel. I wasn't too happy so I texted Joel afterwards to handle things privately because at the end of the day, I've been going to him for a while. His response? Nothing. He left me on read and did not send a word back. (See photo below) 2. This incident happened just today. I made an appointment through his app for today, and even got a confirmation (see below). But when I arrived, the first thing he said to me was "you're not booked today". I showed him the confirmation and he still insisted that I wasn't in the system. Even when I clearly had the confirmation. He then proceeded to tell me to call the customer service on the app. Why would I call the customer service for the app when I am talking to the owner of this business? This is his app not mine. The app is his responsibility, not his customers. I asked if he could squeeze me in because this isn't my fault, but he kept saying that there was nothing he could do. He didn't sound apologetic at all and just blamed the glitchiness of his own app. I'm not the type of person to leave reviews. I would've handled this privately, but I know even if I text him, he will completely ignore my messages. It's safe to say that I will not be going back to him again. It's kind of sad knowing that I've been supporting him for years and this is how he treated his loyal customer.

Unfortunately I can not recommend this business. I committed to a quarterly member at $350, so…read more$1400 a year plus tips for a weekly beard trimmer and hair cut. The stylist was fantastic. However the customer service was sorely lacking. A membership is a different model and certainly a person's hair grows at differing rates. So when my stylist said let's not cut your hair today that was fine. A few weeks later I recieved a text message stating my appointment for that day was changed. This has happened before so I presumed something happened. Typically they reach out but I can't imagine a system errant sending a text for no reason. After I was called for being late to the original appointment time I was confused and spoke with Cassie from the front desk. She was dismissive and disrespectful when I merely tried explaining facts. When confronted her response was she was only being disrespectful because she felt I was being disrespectful to her. A wild thing to say considering the money I was committed to spending and I neither raised my voice, swore etc. After canceling due to her unprofessional attitude she then tried charging for services that were never rendered from the appointments mentioned above. This all could have been easily fixed by her remaining calm, allowing me to send the text, and we chalk it up to a system error. I could have rescheduled the appointment and they'd still have a client. To then even charge for an appointment missed resulting from their system error is disgusting. Thankfully I sent the proof to my band and we resolved it that way. Clearly Cassie has some maturation required for being in customer service. I've overheard her several times at the salon saying she doesn't care about things. And people should know how little they value a membership. Apparently they make less money on members per the stylist so I'm not sure why bother? Anyway go somewhere else where you'll be valued and respected as a client.​​

The place is modern and stylish. The atmosphere is relaxing and intimate and fortunately I had a short waiting time.

They offer other refreshments such as water and soda, but I decided to keep it classy. Maya was my stylist and let me just say that she is excellent at what she does. She asked how I typically style my hair and after a few back and forth comments, she went straight to work. I wanted a new look and let her take the wheel.
