Customer Reviews
I had a very disappointing experience here. The haircut was poor quality, and everything felt rushed. They clearly didn’t take their time, especially with the beard trim. The barber simply ran the trimmer over my beard for less than a minute and charged $35 for it. They didn’t properly clean up the edges, and I left with small stray hairs above my beard line because it wasn’t cut correctly. They also didn’t use a razor for a clean finish, just the beard trimmer. Honestly, you would get better results trimming your beard at home yourself and I’m not exaggerating.
I absolutely despise this spot. They cut my husband’s hair before our wedding - the back hairline was very sloppy and the hairs on the side of his head were uneven (like left vs right) - how does this even happen when you’re using clippers with set lengths? Additionally, my husband said he asked for a slight trim, and they cut his hair nearly down to the scalp on the sides - the shortest hairs around his neck and ears were 2-3 mm long. This was highly inappropriate and too short for a wedding. This place seems to do the exact same haircut for everyone where the hairs are maybe 2-3mm long as they fade out at the bottom. Even if you ask for modifications or for longer hair, they do NOT listen - like a one trick pony. With this level of disregard, they shouldn’t even be charging $25-30 - t
Terrible haircut. They will shave you like you're a sheep and make your head like a boiling egg. The outcome is nothing like what in the reference photo and they charge for $27 (only accept cash) for a single man's haircut.
*2025 prices are $27-28* Good, efficient, and affordable priced cut ($26-27). Whole haircut took 20-25 minute long. Would definitely come again! -Came in on Saturday 1130am time. Pretty busy, About 4-5 barbers, all chairs were getting cut. But pretty efficient, didn't have to wait long (may vary). -Walk-ins OK. I called number, to ensure they have spots open! Recommend calling. -Asked for high fade and scissor trim on top. -Cash or personal check only. No Venmo, No Card.
Terrible experience. Please avoid the younger man on staff — he clearly doesn’t know how to cut hair or handle different hair types, and communication was almost impossible. The result was nothing like what I asked for. Would not recommend.
