Didn't have high expectations about this barbershop, they don't even have a website... we were…read moregreeted extremely rudely, should of read the previous reviews because all we got is "What do you want." (Not a pleasant atmosphere for me and my Hispanic partner) Also the barbers didn't know what a Drop Fade is... that should of been another sign to find another place. I even had a photo of the fade pulled up and this is what I got. My fade isn't even nor is it close to what I asked for. To top it off their equipment is very old and not taken care of, my hair kept getting pulled and I kept getting stabbed with the clippers. So if you have tough skin and don't mind terrible service this is the place for you.

Looking for more of a hometown barbershop rather than the chain store experience that I am quite…read moretired of. Saw this business listed as one of the former so I ventured out to check it out. I knew it was possible for me to have a bad experience as I had not been there before but was looking for a new positive one. Well those hopes were dashed as soon as I pulled up. A sign posted clearly read "Attention: No Walk Ins Allowed." A handwritten sign on the door said "We are open by appointment only." Needless to say when you have posted business hours and a customer arrives during those hours and the shop was indeed closed it hurts your business. My message to the proprietor of this business is "I suppose you don't want any money." If zero was a rating I would give it. Good job on the 1 star rating though. You didn't have to do anything to get it.

The current price shows $31. For a while now have been setting appointments with Bri. The most recent haircut she walked me up to counter so attendant can charge for my haircut, and she can get to her next appointment. I was charged $36! I asked why and was told "she" now charges $36. Bri and never stated that and never had been charged more than what has been displayed over the years going there. I paid the ridiculous price, plus tip, and left. No worries, by two boys will stop going there as well. It's all about the principle and not disclosing upfront. Already found another location that charges 1/3 less and does a better job.

I stopped her to tell her but she said "see I started by your ears so it's low". I like to keep my hair longish (4-5 inches) on top but we had to trip part of it down so that it did look like my hair was falling over a shelf. She cut me multiple times and scraped up the side of my head with the trimmers from pushing so hard. She hard enough that my neck is fatigued from holding my head steady and my neck ended up craning to the side. I had to adjust the angle of my head multiple times because of it. It was almost the same pressure as the barbers used when shaving my head for basic training. Multiple employees swarmed me at checkout asking questions about it and wanting to take pictures on their phones. My big issue is that I expressed my desire, which they confirmed, objected to the way they were doing it, and despite their reassurances that they "know" what they are doing, it still ended up bad. If you care how you look and want a barber who listens to you, do not go here. Edit. Showered and air dried my hair while chilling at home, it is so much worse now!

My first time trying out this place to fix a bad haircut from a previous salon. Akhmed (I hope the…read morespelling is correct) was very personable, attentive and a very highly skilled and knowledgeable barber. He used a lot of different techniques and blending to fix the way My cowlick and fine hair had been poorly blended and cut previously.

This was my first time here, and as a guy getting barber service, you want a barber that will take his time, make sure you walk out feeling like a king. My barber Thomas was just the right guy to take the time of the styling assessment to shave style to finishing product. Walking in the shop just smelled good, their main row of chairs was clean and the decor was modern rustic. You get greeted, they check you in, and they have a lounge as well to wait out your service. I worked with Thomas, and he had a very warm welcome and made sure to take the process of the style, cut, shape, and finishing product that was exactly what you were expecting. This experience did not disappoint. I truly appreciated his chat along throughout the experience, so it was fun and chill. I selected a skin fade with a hard part. The beard was close-knit mustache separated from the beard, which was don't chinstrap style. During the beard trim, I enjoyed the warm towel as well. It was such a chill vibe the whole time. I was informed of their 5 week shape up guarantee. This earned a very highly rated experience and look forward to my next visit.

Everybody who cuts hair here does a great job. I highly suggest to all. Such a hip and neat place.read more
