Paid premium price for an above average cut, definitely not worth the price. Their Facebook page and Yelp prices are very misleading as I paid $50 for a haircut. In their defense, I should've inquired on their pricing but I figured it wouldn't have been ridiculously expensive. I will not be coming here ever again and would rather gamble on a different barber that would give me more value on my money. read more

Absolutely horrible experience and this is the 3rd time I've received bad treatment from the 3rd different guy. His name was Gene and messed my 12 year olds' head up. I paid $40 plus bought some hair products from him on the strength of being nice. Total came out to $50 and the cut was terrible. My son wanted a mid taper and he shaved all the way up the back of his head causing a rash. He messed his hairline up. It is completely crooked and he added over 1 inch of enhancements. Yessssss BLACK HAIRLINE ENHANCEMENT SPRAY on a 12 year old. Unacceptable service. I'm not sure if he is licensed but they need to go to that shop and make sure. There was a nice young lady in there that also tried to act like he did not do anything wrong, which he did. There was another guy there I believe named David, and he tried to help too I guess but not really. My son left that shop crying and now it's up to me to find someone else who can hopefully fix this. DO NOT GO TO THIS SHOP. Unless you know someone personally there. I'm so pissed off I want to report this facility to the board of cosmetology. There was no resolve whatsoever and I will be filing a formal complaint. read more

Been here twice and I do believe I've found my spot. Comfortable atmosphere too. Kevin was able to look at my face and head shape and give me what I wanted that I wasn't sure how to communicate it! Some of us will ask for the Halle Berry, but what's really gonna bring out your best is Grace Jones! Thank you Kevin. read more

Lots of homeless in and out asking barber for drugs. Babers smoke marijuana on the job. One is even a drug dealer. Not a safe environment if you want to bring kids. Profanity is thrown around insignificantly wouldn't recommend bringing your kids. Worst hair cut I've ever gotten and over priced. AVOID at all costs. Much better barbers on sacramento than this place. ​ read more

Everyone out there talking about 30-40 $ cuts and coming up short. My man hooked me up real nice, real nice. Highly recommend. read more

This place is for those who want a quality cut not rushed , they take cash and some barbers take card payment. I was seen by Genesis today, I got a burst fade haircut he paid close attention to detail and wasn't heavy handed with the clippers. I watched other barbers in the shop as they completed their cuts and they all pay close attention to detail as well. Great business, even better customer service. There were a handful kids that came in and you can visibly tell they enjoyed their experience as well. I would recommend this barbershop for kids and adults. read more

I have been growing my sons hair out for about a year to avoid going to barbershops. But recently I decided to take my son to get a haircut. Kevin is a very talented & humble person that took the time to cut my 5 year olds hair. Probably the best experience I've had at a barbershop. The normal scene consist of my son screaming & kicking his way through a hair cut BUT not with Kevin. He kept my son calm the whole time & did a great Job. Thanks again Kevin, we will be back! read more

Professional energy, good listening skills, non judgmental, and knowledgable service. I got my hair cut here a few days ago and it was good. i described what i wanted (not knowing a lot of barber lingo) and the barber cut my hair how i pictured it. i forgot the barbers name but he cut my hair in the first chair to the right when you walk in. read more

went in on a Monday. (a lot of places are closed on mondays) and got faded up properly by Chris. I don'l live in Sac., but I've been looking for a good place in the south area for a while. I'll be making a stop by this place on a routine from now on, as I won't have to worry about taking time to get cut before I come up to Sac. I found a spot. Keep up the good work Fellas, Y'all got skills! read more

Can't go wrong with any barber in there, no lie. Had a cut by 3 of them so far( if there's more idk) but each time I came out looking fresh. Not fancy at all, come in and get right. I always leave a tip, they put so much work and time in. My spot now read more

Just left the shop after getting the freshest cut I've had in years. You won't be disappointed. Dennis is da man. Wait maybe it's Kevin the owner. No never mind. Dennis got Skillz. I got the skin tight cut. The hot towel treatment. And the jojoba oil application. I stepped out so fresh n so clean. I will definitely be headin back. Support our folks. Small business trying to make it. They also have a few promotions going. There's one here on Yelp. SN&R Sweet deals has another where you can buy a gift certificate for 50% off (at the time of this post). And they will honor them. Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Again. read more
