Great hair cut, shaved sideburns and neck and shoulder massage. All for $25. Great conversation and old time feel. Highly recommend. Only complaint is that she took 2 personal calls while cutting my hair. Kept it brief so not a big deal.

I first want to say that I have been to this barbershop once before and had a great haircut and a…read morevery positive experience. I don't typically write reviews, but my experience this evening was extremely disappointing. At around 5:20 PM, I called to ask if you were accepting walk-ins and was told, "Come on in! We can get you right in." Based on that response, I arrived about ten minutes later, around 5:30 PM. When I entered, every barber was already with a client, and no one acknowledged me or even noticed that I had come in. Despite this, I signed in and waited, giving the benefit of the doubt. As time passed, more people walked in--some with appointments and possibly some walk-ins--and they were taken back almost immediately. Meanwhile, after waiting for over an hour and a half, I still had not received any acknowledgment, communication, or apology from the staff. Eventually, it became clear that no one was going to assist me, so I left. This was an extremely frustrating and upsetting experience, especially considering how positive my first visit was. Unfortunately, tonight's experience was very disappointing.

Very unpleasant experiences. Absolutely TERRIBLE haircut!!!…read moreThese women display the epitome of disrespect to their customers, again having to wait 30 minutes for my RESERVED appointment. Not one person asked or even recognized my presence for 15 minutes after arriving prior to my appointment time. Dismissive when confronted about wait times. ALSO, it appears by their finished product of their work, (terrible fading technique, just a definitive line of length from side to top, (thinking bowl cut) when asked specifically to fade the lengths) that they have not reached the level of "stylist or haircutter" to expect the kind of monies they demand, (thinking "SUPER CUTS" level of work) AND the amount of tip they recommend on the payment app. (they also do not perform all the services they advertise for each service, you have to demand it) Very disappointed with the quality of service from a few of the employees (Alex and one other) will not return. Save your money, go to "Super Cuts" and get better service! Not being rude, just honest.

First off, I got my head shaved and beard trimmed, for $31!!! Literally the easiest thing possible,…read morefor over thirty bucks. I definitely won't be returning. I walked in, guy was sitting in the chair watching tv, I asked if he took walk-ins, just trying to be polite, and he said sure. I sat down, told him I wanted head shaved to zero, beard down to 4, that's all. He kept asking if I wanted a "fade" and I told him no. He ended up giving me a "fade" and he gave me a mirror and asked me to check it out. Definitely not my style, and it was a waste of time. I don't know if he was that bored or what, but it wasted my time. I told him I didn't like it, he shaved my head, as I had originally asked for, and he rings me up. I did not expect it to cost that much and it was definitely not worth it. I feel like I got charged for both the haircuts and the beard trim. Pros: no wait time, don't have to schedule ahead of time (everywhere else I tried prior to arriving here required scheduling) Cons: expensive (for what I got,) waste of time. Thanks for eventually giving me what I asked for though??

I had to fix my neck because there was still hair ( again barber did not put a blade to it) not even offered to use a razor 5.
