The sign said "walk-ins" welcome and "cash-only". Perfect! The atmosphere was a cool old school barbershop vibe. Which, you don't see much of anymore. Dave was finishing up with a customer and I didn't have to wait long at all. He cut my hair perfectly was fast and very pleasant to talk with. His prices are super reasonable considering what places get for a haircut today. I'll definitely be back. I have zero complaints with my experience and couldn't be happier!

I was going to other barbers around the area and they were taking 1 hour or more for a simple skin fade. He did it better and in 15 minutes. Not only that, I don't have to make an appointment and can just walk in, so people like me with a busy schedule with kids that doesn't have time to plan as much can just walk in and the wait is not that long due to his efficiency and professionalism. And if that's not enough, I'm always greeted with a friendly welcome and the conversation is great too. I would recommend this place to anyone especially men who need a quick haircut you will like so you can continue on with your day!

Hands down THE BEST haircut my Son's ever had!!... Hands…read moredown THE FASTEST haircut my Son's ever had!!.. Hands down THE MOST "PAINLESS" experience I, as the Parent have ever had!!! The fact that I didn't have to hover over my squirmy Toddler for 39-45 minutes; shoving lollipops down his throat, breaking out into song and dance/full on theatrical performances, etc. (Any and every rewarding, redirection, distraction, tactic known to Mom), is huuuuge. Shoot for me, that in and of itself is reason enough to look no further! So in addition to completely taking over (which is often needed in situations such as this) and making my Son feel comfortable in the process, Jay had us in/out within 15-20 minutes tops AND he gave my Son the best haircut he's ever had!! (We've been to several other places in the past and never have I been so happy with the final results as I was after this visit). I literally couldn't ask for more. Additional Bonuses: *Convenient hours *Scheduling the appointment was a breeze; as Jay was very accommodating. (He got us in the day of and within hours). *Follows/Reinforces COVID safety procedures. (Jay informed me of his mask/temp taking policy in advance). *Very friendly- Aside from being good with children, he was very friendly with myself & Hubby; as he not only took the time to share some styling and product tips. But also offered us a sample of the product used on my Son. Overall just a really nice guy. (A really nice no nonsense dry sense of humor type of guy. In absolutely no way was he rude and it's a damn shame that some people (below) aren't capable of seeing the difference). Anyways, thanks again Jay!!....I'm thrilled to have found this hidden gem of yours and we'll definitely be seeing you again soon!!

She has permed or colored and cut my hair for years and does an excellent job discussing my goals of where I am going with the style, cut or color and works her magic to deliver. She is also very honest in telling me what I can or should not do with my hair so that I get the best results, and healthy hair. She has even fixed my mistakes when I occasionally decided to do something myself. Her prices are so reasonable; they are ridiculously low compared to any other salons I have tried over the past 10 years. I've also watched her men's haircuts and she is a superb barber. Have no fear switching stylists and be surprised at the look and value. However, plan ahead, she is busy (has lots of loyal customers) but she also offers evening appointments which helps greatly for the working woman or man. Bring cash or your check book as she does not accept credit cards (there is a bank right across the parking lot if you forget.)
