★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Walton · Jun 2019

For close to 20 years I have been getting my haircut here. I've known the owner. There is always a great crew of barber At this location and it is a true Barber.. The best part of it is right next to a hardware store and also a place that sells wood. Across the street is a pizza place and also several other restaurants. Haircuts are essential to your well being and these folks know how to do it right. They always give great advice. Prompt service is a hallmark of their business. The location is set on magazine street underneath the beautiful oaks. The neighborhood around it is it wonderful place to walk If you don't have an appointment, however they do take appointments and I recommend you get one.

WOMEN’S HAIRCUT! I needed a trim and went to the local barber shop. Donita did a fabulous job! I highly recommend her! Jason and Donita cut my grandson’s hair and it always looks great!

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Mike Chicago · May 2025

I was on the fence about posting this, but I got a bad haircut a few weeks ago from Betsy. I was the first of the day, showed pics of a previous GOOD cut (at a now closed shop) and 10 mins later she was done. I didn't get a great look at it at the time. Later I saw the left side was off. I thought maybe after a day or 2 it will look more normal. It didn't. I wear hats a lot, but considered going back to fix it. Didn't know if going back to the same place to fix it was smart. I have a function in a couple of weeks that I'm going to get it cut again, so I didn't go back. $35 and I tipped $10. for a 10 minute bad cut.

Listen. I don’t let just anyone near this hair because one wrong snip and I’m in witness protection. But Donita at Golden Shears? She’s the real deal. She was so sweet I half expected her to hand me a cupcake mid-cut. Easy to talk to, like we’d been besties since middle school, and absolutely fast. Blink and suddenly I’ve got fresh hair and a renewed sense of self-worth. No awkward small talk, no judgment for my grown-out ends, just pure talent and good vibes. If you want someone who knows what they’re doing and makes you feel fabulous while doing it, go see Donita. She’ll have you looking sharp and feeling even sharper.

I've been going to Donita for years, and she never disappoints. She's on meticulous with how she cuts my hair and beard. I give her a shoutout whenever I get a compliment because I honestly feel younger once I leave this spot. Also, you can't beat the prices. Highly recommend!
