Customer Reviews
The treated me well, my hair not so much. The two star review is broken down as follows: (⭐️) Service- The staff was very amicable and greeted me as I walked in, always respectful. I did not have an appointment, but they happily took me in. (-⭐️) Cut- I walked in with an overgrown fade and hair on the top of my head ranging from 2 to 4 inches in length, as I usually style it to the side. I asked for a low fade, and not much off the top as I like to style my hair a few different ways. This helps when I want my hairline to he less apparent. When we were done, I felt like the cut was not what I asked for. It doesn’t look bad, but I can’t really tell there’s a fade on the sides and sideburns, and I have very little hair left on the top of my head, meaning that I can only style it in the fas
Have been going there since Jan of 2024 not only are the prices reasonable. Its a family atmosphere. My son loves how Big Al puts the latest design in his hair. His expertise is worth more than the prices he charges. For myself everyone ask where do I go. Treat your self to a nice relaxing comfortable haircut and Eric is also very good. My family now goes to. You'll love it. Go download booksy as appointment are preferred. Enjoy
Good atmosphere, and I'm sure the barbers are great. They person that helped me didn't ask questions or explain much and I ended up with something I very much didn't want. Didn't seam to know a lot of straight hair, great place for tight curly hair tho!
Been going to the same barber shop for 20+ years. Always a good time in Big Al's. Neighborhood staple where most of the customers are considered family than customers. Al runs his business legit where all barbers are licensed. Personal barber Shawn (Diddy) probably top 5 barbers in the city. If you don't call ahead of time, the wait for service will be excessive. Also be prepared for "shop talk" as most convos rated at pg-13 or higher. They try their best to monitor topics based off of clientele in the shop. However, some stuff does slide through. Overall good experiences though!
My sister had her haircut on February 19th it was atrocious I felt so bad for her she did make a post but the owner I assume took down part of her comments but that's all right it's all on Facebook you can see the type of work that the barber did to her hair
