Probably the worst barbershop to go to in Calgary I asked for a taper fade and the barber was like "I can see what I can do" and it looks horrid after.

Went in on Halloween. From my receipt, staff's name was Rakshabe and she was very professional- both in her demeanour and final result. Thank you!

Bad service had a coupon for hair cut. The app wasn't working properly so had to paid full price . The girl working didn't care . Rough looking store old lookin . Would not recommend this company to anyone. Customer service or anything to do for customers not there. There was other customer around so I just paid an left. Even though ad the coupon said that I had to book online to get the deal . Anyways I think you all get my views on this place.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but this was honestly one of the worst haircut experiences I’ve had. I asked for a simple, even cut, and somehow ended up with a completely uneven mess. One side is noticeably longer than the other, and there are random, choppy layers that I never asked for. It looks like it was done by someone who had no idea what they were doing.
The hairstylist didn’t seem confident or skilled at all. I kept trying to explain what I wanted, but they either weren’t listening or didn’t understand basic cutting techniques. It felt rushed and careless, and now I have to go somewhere else just to fix it.
Definitely not coming back. If you’re looking for a proper cut from someone who knows what they’re doing, I’d look elsewhere.
