His prices rarely have changed and is more than fair, you arent paying Hollywood prices but still maintaining that Hollywood look. I rarely write reviews about places , but this place has made an impression on me for the past few years. Its best to call ahead to see how many people are ahead , he gets alot of buisness. Great for your male hair cuts and shaves. If youre looking for a new barber check him out, id even go as far as if youre a barber yourself looking to get into a shop , as long as you work consistently and dont bail on customers im sure Scott would love to add some help ​.

I'm a 66 year old woman and I have been going to Scott for over 10 years. I needed something punky…read moreand short, and the haircut I had gotten before my first visit with Scott just destroyed my hair. Back then I did cry. So I figured I'd try Scott because he was recommended by a neighbor, and I was shocked at how cheap the prices were and still are! So I figured it would take at least two haircuts for me to look human again and then finally maybe by the third month I could start building a decent head of hair again. Well literally I know that Scott works magic, and I walked out of there on that first visit with a punky and smart and sexy haircut I will never go anywhere else and I'm glad Scott is younger than I so I don't have to find somebody new Thank you so much for such high quality service, and over the years I have seen Scott work with small children before school and he is great with children. 10 gauges them on their level while they're in The barbers chair until they are comfortable and by the time they know it the haircut's over and they're smiling. So I give Scott 10 stars out of five, whether it's for a man or woman or a child you're going to do your best at Mel's Place barbershop

I know barbers can't fix ugly but... Waited half an hour after scheduled time... Somewhat my fault…read morebecause I was unclear with what I wanted... but anytime someone Abe Lincoln's me and makes me look Amish by taking my mustache down to almost nothing, you've ruined my beard. My hair... might as well have been making scissor sounds with your mouth because it basically was not cut... except for hard lines by side burns and neckline. The hair is somewhat my fault, I'll say, due to my communication. The barber who fixed my hair at another shop seemed to think it was flawed execution, too. Bad haircuts happen every now and then but also: this barber... she kept talking and not cutting and the cut took forever. But my other thing is the vibe of the shop: it's a bro vibe. I'm too old for that. I think the guy with the dog is pretty good and professional. One barber in there was going on and on about politics and conspiracies when I went in there a few years ago. Annoying, loud, not my vibe. The other thing is I texted who I think is the biz owner and I don't think they give a s***. It's awkward to receive a bad cut - I feel bad complaining - but 1) no one wants the Amish look 2) hard lines on longer hair like that + no shape to anything else - just say you can't cut longer hair and give me a fade 3) bro vibes 4) owner didn't care (they said to text the number). The cool thing is it inspired me to buy clippers for my beard and hair. It prob won't go great but better than the cut I received from my barber.

I don't normally leave reviews. But this one was too hard to pass up. I called up the shop early in…read morethe day to see if they took any walk-ins, which they did and they booked me with Thomas. I asked if they specialized in high and tights, was told yes by the lady who picked up. Guess the owners were obsessed with James Dean, odd. Shop was clean, nobody in the shop other than Thomas. Sat down, Thomas began cutting me up. My hair wasn't that long and complex, pretty much has to cut was was grown over 2 weeks from previous barber. NOPE. he proceeded to give me an undercut on one side and attempted a fade on the other. You can tell when you get an inexperienced barber when they're talking to themselves while cutting you up. Thank god the haircut was $16 for whatever this is. I tipped cause I always do. But stay far away from these barbers. Pretty sure sports clips would of given me a better cut and closer to what I asked for than this!

The second time was years later and John was my barber and messed up a simple Caesar cut so badly it is embarrassing. It is overpriced and the quality has been very bad.
