I've now had three haircuts from Carmen at Rock Paper Scissors and they have all been identically, predictably, great! I was sick of the mediocre to awful quality of the cheap chain places like Great Clips and decided to look for someone that could be "my barber". Luckily I found Carmen. And in addition to a great haircut she'll tidy up the hair on your neck, ears, eyebrows and provide a scalp massage that is something I didn't even know I liked! Carmen is pricier than a chain barbershop so this is the place if you are looking for a great haircut and don't mind spending a little more to look your best. read more

Make no mistake, Carmen is the GOAT! I have been going to her for over a year now and get a cut about once a month. Throughout my time with her I've had over 15 cuts and not once has she failed to deliver excellence. I have not only never been dissatisfied with a cut, I am always feeling myself for a week or two after leaving her shop. Furthermore, her shop is always clean, tidy, and relaxing. On top of pure quality, Carmen herself is very sweet and easy to talk to. She always remembers and asks about things going on in my life. I will be going to her for as long as I possibly can! read more

Due to the nature of my business I relocate often and have had several barbers throughout my life. Carmen is by far the best and my wife thinks so too. She never skips a step and has the touch and vision of an Angel. Hair, beard, ears, eyebrows. Everything to make a man feel clean. If she recommends a slight style change? Do it. Just do it. She is the pro and you are not. She made my skinny face look full and my half bald head look rock n roll. Trust this woman and pay her what she is worth. read more

Amazing haircuts every single time. After years of going to a different barber that was constantly raising their prices for mediocre work, I decided to try something else. Only had to show a picture of what I wanted once, and Carmen has remembered and continued to cut my hair perfectly every time I go back. The place is extremely clean and welcoming and Carmen goes a step further and offers water or coffee. Great prices too! Awesome experience every time!!! read more

Carmen is truly the best barber in the area for men. She consistently delivers great haircuts time and time again and is well worth what she charges. I tried a number of different barbers in the area before landing on her and she is definitely the best there is around here. Only callout I'd mention is that she does usually have her dog with her so if you're allergic to dogs keep that in mind but I'm a dog person and love seeing her when I come in! read more

As someone who doesn't know hair vocabulary that well, I had trouble explaining how i wanted my hair. I went on rambling for 2 minutes trying to explain how i wanted my hair and then showed a reference picture that wasn't exactly what i wanted but the closest i can find l. Carmen then said "Okay I got it" and cut my hair perfectly. She is really nice to have conversations with and it's always one on one. read more

Excellent. There are many places you can go in the greater Bothell WA area, but this is the place you want to go. Carmen is talented, and the service is excellent. These need to be 85 words which I think is strange, but I wanted to leave a review. It doesn't really matter what I say, what matters is the stars, and this is a 5 star barber shop. read more

My boyfriend gets his haircut there and Carmen always does such a great job. She really listens to what you want and is very patient.
