Awesome attention to detail. Guys if your monthly haircut is at Great Clips/Super Cuts/Sports Clips etc DITCH THOSE CLOWNS and get a proper barber shop haircut. The prices are very fair and probably less than you'd pay at those corporate places. read more

Being new to anywhere and finding a new barber or anything can be a little daunting. Having found somewhere you can only hope that your first experience is positive. You explain what you are looking for and hope that is what you get. Unfortunately that was not what I experienced. I believe that 1. You should be put with the most experienced barber to get that positive feeling and 2. When you are getting your hair cut, not facing the mirror and not being allowed to see what's happening, is not the best way to do things. It's not a surprise party! Then there is the cost, well! Live and learn as they say. Everyone deserves a second chance but I guess I am a little too fussy. read more

I had my haircut today by Sam. First time customer. Sam did a very nice job. He is well trained. The shop is very large, open and clean. Perfect spot to get a haircut, but even better given the current COVID environment. I will be back for another cut with Sam. read more

Specialties

A hair cut is just a hair cut, right? Wrong! At The Barber Parlor, a hair cut is ritual, a nostalgic experience harkening back to a simpler day when men gathered at the corner barbershop to discuss everything from business, to sports, to current events.

History

I told the person who was taking him back to cut his hair that he cut in line and he admitted it in front of her. She basically shrugged her shoulders and proceeded to take him to cut his hair. So while Peter, the douchebag who cut in front of me got his haircut, I walked out. Never to return. If you don't think line-jumping is a sporting event, I advise everyone else not to go there either. A 1-star rating is too high.

This is a one chair shop, so be prepared to wait if you go in during a busy time of the day.

It's definitely not a salon, this is a place for men to get a straight forward cut. All in all, a good experience. $7 for a beard trim $8 for 65+ $10 for haircut.

I called and they were able to get me in within 20 minutes. The staff was friendly and helpful. My barber (Brandon I think) was great and did an amazing job. Even shaved my neck with a straight razor which is amazing and hard to find someone that can use a razor. The razor also gives that extra close shave. So if any one ever ask "do you want the straight razor?" The answer is always YES I was in town on business so don't know if I'll be back but if I do find myself in town needing a cut I wouldn't hesitate to go here. Definitely would recommend

I booked a cut and color…read moreon my ONE day off; the stylist lopped my hair off at my shoulders and then had the audacity to have a medical emergency and had to leave when she told me she was going to mix up color. one of her fellow stylists jumped in and finished my haircut and then told me to pay and reschedule for a color. now I understand that things happen, don't get me wrong. But that could have been handled a WHOLE lot better. The next day (!) someone called and let me know there would be a credit for the cost of my haircut if I wanted to call and reschedule the color, which is really the LEAST anyone could do, but honestly it was such an afterthought that I just have no desire to ever go back, credit or no. The haircut was ok (the second one) but I think I'm going to pass; this salon had one chance to make me feel pretty, and like I mattered. No one even offered to wash my hair, which I had specifically left filthy for the color. Boo

If I had not seen it coming in time to shut my eye, my eyesight would have been ruined. As it was, it sealed my lid shut. This happens because he bounces off the walls and leaves you sitting in the chair while visiting with whomever comes into the shop. Or he is busy showing you things on his phone. A 40-minute style takes an hour or longer. Even though you have an appointment, every time I show up for mine, he is still in the middle of the person ahead of me. He was never on time. If he screwed his appointments up and called me to see if I would change my date to help him out, I always did. He, however, never called back to reschedule a new date even though he said he would. He would never call us back for a new appointment if we became sick or had to cancel. No matter how many times we contacted him, he never called back. This was out of spite. This, along with the prior review issues, is why we left. There are better hairdressers out there who are cheaper and respect their customers and co-workes. This owner is an unhappy, busy body with a mean streak. If a client he had issues with called while I was there if he looked at the number and he didn't want to speak to that person he would not answer the call. He would let it go to VM or ask his girl Morgan to take a message. He then would trash that client calling and talk badly about them.

My friend brought her son here, do not bring a child here!! The lady left her in TEARS!!! Everytime I've taken my kids for a haircut, it's all about letting them be near mommy and eating snacks or anything to occupy and keep them still. The lady wouldn't allow either!!! (snacks have chemicals was her response) and thennnnn....she cuts parts of his hair and says bring him back when he has a nap...WHAT THE??? Don't offer kids haircuts if you can't handle it. ps. he was not even being bad. DO NOT SUPPORT BUSINESS LIKE THAT!!! A MOM SHOULD NOT HAVE HER CHILDS FIRST HAIRCUT BE AN EXPERIENCE LIKE THIS!!!!! read more

I wonder who else's death you're going to use for clout you inbred losers. That's your game right? Only in Waterville. Since you're so bad at giving haircuts you can't even cut bangs! Looks like you let a 2 year old cut them. Maybe that's why you try to use innocent peoples death for money and customers to make it look like you're some great people. But I see how you respond to all of your reviews. read more
