    Was tired of going to the basic quick clips kind of places, so decided to go for a nice but affordable barber. The Fade Factory fit the bill and was a surprisingly satisfying experience without breaking the bank. My hair and beard cut was performed by the owner so I was in great hands. However, upon observing the others cutting hair as well they all had focus and determination in the work they were doing. Truly a place of focus and passion for hair. In addition to the hot towel treatment, nice TVs, mirrors, lighting, and vibes, I was impressed with the little waiting area for kids or whom ever to enjoy while waiting. They had a PS4 which was a nice modern touch seldom seen. We made an appointment over the phone which was easy and breezy. Only critique would be the clean up after the cut. Perhaps because it was closing time, or the sheer difficulty to accomplish this, but there were quite a few of stray hair left on my face and neck after the cut which would have meant a for sure shower or rinse needed to happen if you needed to go to an event later that day. (Not a crazy amount, but enough to notice and feel) Overall, I'd gladly go back to this place and am so happy to have found it. A hidden gem in Huntsville.

    Horrible experience nothing like the average barber shop over price and highly disappointed with the cut the people are great but the hair cut was just horrible a day later I bumped up bad never happen before ever till I came to this shop .....so honestly if u wanna take a chance don't not worth the time and money !!

    Appt. was scheduled for 10. I double checked before I left at 10:38.

    After being no-showed last month, one of the barbers graciously worked me in. He gave me a great haircut and I was eager to come back because I thought I had found my go to place (I live in Decatur and drive over because I loved it so much). Today, I got no-showed again and 30 minutes after my appointment time asked what was going on. I was told my guy wasn't feeling well but after waiting with my son for 30 minutes couldn't push my day back anymore. You get a great cut, don't get my wrong. But the sheer lack of professionalism after 2 no-shows has me, sadly, looking for a new barber.

    The Fade Factory...Highly recommended if your in the Capshaw, AL area

    Way too overpriced for the quality of cut. Got charged $50 for a basic men's cut that wasn't anymore special than Great Clips.

    My son ask for a simple fade and the back of his head was shaved and the lady clearly has no idea how to fade hair. Please spare yourself.

    How much is it to get my eyebrows done?

    You can't I don't think. You can only get your hair done I think. Just went today and saw no eyebrow tools so yeah.

    Just like Whiskers and Roosters, you can get a wash and conditioner with a hot towel, but this included a face and hand massage.

    Cuts By Us on Madison Blvd hair stylist Keilah Harris is very unprofessional. She braggs and talks…read moreabout services she can perform and how great she can do things to get you sucked in. Once she starts on your hair, she walks around gossiping, telling Alexa what music to play, she's popping and dancing in front of customers while they are sitting in her chair. I confirmed my appointment with her for a new sew in a few days before my appointment. I let her know what products and how many I would be purchasing for her to use on my hair. She agreed. I bought 2 packs of sew in weave and she only used 1. She ran out of the sew in thread. I had to get up with a partially started head and go to a beauty supply store myself and buy more thread. When I returned with the thread she was sitting down laughing and talking. A professional like she claim she was would not run out of of any products she knew she had to use on a client's head. She also let me know she was only going to use 1 pack of weave on my head and she knew I had purchased 2 packs. She told me the pack of weave she opened was brown instead of black. I told her I bought 1B for off black. I believe that when I left to go get more sew in thread she switched my expensive pack of weave out with some of her used weave. I think she lured me to go get sew in thread so she could switch my weave out with used weave and made it seem like the wrong color was in the pack I bought. Another reason I feel she switched my weave out with some used weave while I was gone, is because this weave she put in my head is real tangly and frizzy. My Milky Way brand weave has never been tangled and frizzy. It looks like my natural hair. My sew in was a crappy sew in job. My hair looked better the way I went in than what it looked like coming out. It was definitely not worth the $175.00 job that I paid her for. Keilah Harris couldn't touch anything on my head ever again. Her supposedly sew in on my head took twice the amount of time to do my head, than a real professional who really knew how to do a sew in. I left Cut By Us feeling busted, disgusted, and felt cheated out of my money. I ended up having to go pay another stylist to add more weave to my head and trim it better. You can tell the difference in the weave, with me going to someone else and it was actually my Milky Way weave the other stylist added to my head. I called back the next day to complain. One of the other workers supposedly notified upper management and they lied for her and said she was going to leave and go get the sew in thread, but I volunteered to go. She and the other workers lied, because Keilah Harris didn't have a car to go get sew in thread. Someone came to pick her up when she finished my hair. One of her kids walked in and asked her was she ready. I really feel now that she lied about running out of thread to lure me to leave the shop, while she switched out my expensive weave for cheap weave and the wrong color. Now I see why she didn't use 2 packs of weave on my hair. I would have noticed the difference right away that was not my Milky Way weave and the same weave that I bought. I should have took my products out with me when I left to go get more sew in thread. I found out Keilah Harris did not put my services in the computer because I paid her cash and she pocketed the money. I reported it immediately to an area manager name Belinda at (941) 276-7382 and she told me to give her a couple of days while she have cameras reviewed. She said she didn't know they performed any other services there besides hair cuts. I let her know another worker name Erica was doing a perm on an older lady's head. So workers there are performing services on the side and not putting the services in the computer and are pocketing the money. I did not hear back from the area manager Belinda in a couple of days, so I called her back. She immediately had her voice mail say she was on a conference call and she would call me back. I even texted her. I have proof of my texts to her that she read them. She ignored my texts and she ignored my calls.
