The gentleman asked what we wanted and I showed him a picture and he recreated it perfectly! My son has painfully straight hair that can be hard to get a good fade on but our barber managed a very nice fade and even got my grumpy teen to smile while chatting during the haircut- no small victory. The cut was $28- very affordable for the quality of the cut. We will definitely be returning. The vibe was laid back and cozy, right on the waterfront.

I've been a Mark's Barber Shop customer for years and for almost all of that time I would give them…read morea 5 star rating. Mark was one of the finest barbers in the area. But Mark started towards retirement and brought in his son, John, a great guy, but not the barber his dad was. As Mark completely retired, they've had barbers of various skill levels cycle through. After Covid, everything became by appointment and often times that didn't work with my schedule. By chance, I tried another barber shop in another locale and got a very good haircut and began frequenting them. Last week, I happened to need a haircut and was in Gig Harbor and tried for a walk-in. I was able to get an appointment that worked and came back at the time. A lady barber cut my hair and I just asked to clean it up a little and just off the ears. When I was done, she showed me the results- I was basically given almost an Army recruit haircut. In 50 years, my hair hadn't been that short. When she asked "How's that?" What the hell are you supposed to say? The damage was done and nothing left to do but let it grow out and never go back there. Even my wife and daughter remarked what a terrible haircut it was.. Mark, I had many a great haircut at your place, but the high review of your shop is probably a lot of inertia from days gone by. Adios, amigo.

My 3rd barber from moving to the area and by far the best. Friendly shop and did great work.read more

My wife Kendall walked into this salon three days after these before photos were taken. She left…read moreabsolutely devastated, and she has not been okay since. She came in asking for a blonde hair service and a haircut. What Ashley did to her hair is one of the worst things I have ever seen done to a person in a salon. Kendall had thick, beautiful, waist-length hair that she had spent years growing. She walked out with her hair so aggressively and unevenly thinned that you can see light through it in sections. The ends are wispy and choppy throughout. None of this was discussed, agreed to, or consented to. Ashley made the decision on her own to take thinning shears to hair that had absolutely no business being thinned like this. And the color? Her hair does not look noticeably blonder than when she walked in. We paid $325 for a blonde hair service that delivered no visible result. We also left a $60 tip -- $385 total -- for a service that has left my wife in tears. Kendall is 30 years old. We are looking at a minimum of 2 to 5 years for her hair to recover to where it was before she walked through your door. That is not an inconvenience. That is years of her life. She has cried every single day since this appointment. She does not recognize herself. She is devastated. The before photos in this review were taken three days before her appointment. Look at them. Then look at the after. The difference is inexcusable. We have contacted the salon requesting a full refund. We will be taking Kendall's hair to another salon for corrective work at significant additional cost to us. So far we have not heard back, despite the email being marked as read. If you have thick, long, healthy hair -- do not bring it here. We learned that the hard way.

If you're a man in gig harbor / port orchard / key peninsula areas you'll be hard pressed to find a barber that can compete with Nori's without charging an arm and a leg or booking you out weeks in advance.

First time as a walkin' client I got off the internet, and when I walked out I had bar none one of the best hairkuts I've ever had. Even thou there are 4-6 barbers in there, and because they take both appointment & walkin....they still had walkin's piled up within 15min me walking in the door. My barber was Ivy, and the whole time she was a laser focused "Artist" at work. I went in as an impossible 3month+ shaggy dog and she had to start all over from scratch. I briefly told her what I wanted, she knew instantly and because of my 70+yr old fine & thinning hair it did not bother her at all. She went right to it. I was watching and all the barbers at the same time and they were all the same, but for me am taking no chances and booking Ivy appointments ahead of time. After 70+yrs and many barbers, this was my best find. Seriously, guys, take your boys in with you....you will be amazed. ...........5 out of 5 Stars guaranteed!!! read more

Best haircut ever!. Definitely not your Old Fashioned barber shop. Jenny and Dee will greet you with a smile as you enter this superbly modern yet manly barber salon then, once in the chair, your personal tonsorial artist will lavish you with attention. Ah yes! Real men like a bit of pampering ... so you will love the hot towel and firm but gentle neck massage! The shop is just behind Umpqua Bank in the Gig Harbor North Albertson shopping center. read more
