My son came here to get his haircut and he wanted his haircut exactly as the picture he brought with him and the barber said it’s too difficult and they are not the barber. 💈 will not be coming here again..

Had only 2 styles in almost 20 years. Got a terrible cut not that long ago I went back they fixed it and said to come back and they will clean it up if needed. The coupons are great a little hard to get at times but still helps.

The person who handled my hair cut was distracted - having a side bar conversation - we did not see eye to eye on the picture -I showed several. My hair is cut way too short 😔

Didn’t get the chance to do a review, usually had good experiences when I get my haircut there, but the last two times I had a haircut at this location. It was horrifying.
1st of the last the “stylist” cut my ear and he was like playing it off if it was ok and then said it’s my fault for moving which I wasn’t. Still had a nerve to charge me and no offer a no charge injury.
Final time I had my hair cut, was with this lady that was cutting my hair and she was complaining about how my hair should be cut and had another customer getting their haircut join in to “insult me” and to top off then complained I didn’t tip. Well how can I tip if you are complaining and getting another customer to join in with the “insult”
Not sure if the new hiring of these hair stylists these days are the best they can get but something needs to change. I noticed at that time, there are lot of different stylists and the original ones are not staying.
Mens, womens, kids and senior haircuts as well as bang, neck and beard trims. Other haircare services include shampoo, blow dry, or hair styling such as an updo. Select salons offer perm services.
