I am not entirely sure what happened here, but I walked in asking for a Medium Reg and walked out looking like I was reporting for duty at 0500 sharp to the base SgtMaj. It gets two stars because the price is good, but the execution was a mystery worthy of its own Netflix documentary. The male barber was having an enthusiastic conversation with his coworkers in another language, which honestly sounded more coordinated than what was happening on my head. He eventually asked what I wanted, I said Medium Reg, and he nodded with the confidence of a man who has already decided to give you whatever haircut his electric razors spiritually desire. About ten minutes in, I could tell we were no longer anywhere close to Medium. We had passed Medium. We had sped past Low. We were now cruising in the
2 stars for price. 0 stars for everything else. I asked for a low skin fade. He started off and then kept asking who cut my hair before and goes “you paid money for this?” In all honestly, my previous haircut was 20x better than the one he gave me that was not even blended and jagged at best. I just wanted to get out of there and so gave him a $20 and walked out. I heard him say “at least he tipped well” and i just kept walking. Avoid. At all costs
Had the male barber. Haircut was not what I requested (medium skin fade) basically gave me a high and tight with no fade. He basically eyeballed it (badly). The clippers kept pulling the hair. When he cut the top with scissors he was pulling the hair and just randomly cutting. There was no measuring or nothing. Avoid at all cost. Used his fingers to swipe the hair off my face, coming just millimeters to poking my eyeballs out. Terrible job overall
An absolute chop job. 20 bucks for worse than barracks cut. No fading. Just a shave above the ear.
I will echo what many others have already said - avoid this place at all costs. I've been coming here for more than a decade but will now go elsewhere based on the last few haircuts my son received here. I should say the gentleman and the one young(er) lady are great, but the older lady who wears like 10-inch tall rubber shoes has no business handling clippers. She has destroyed my son's hair 2 or 3 times in a row but the worst part is she just doesn't care at all. She doesn't even pretend to care. She spends maybe 6-7 minutes total on him and spins him around with nothing taken off the top, a horrible fade, and his bangs noticeably crooked. Like really crooked. So bad my wife said when she saw him yesterday, "He looks like Harry from Dumb and Dumber." Why the rush and horrible job? It's a
