My son and I both get our hair cut here for the last 2 years. We both have short hair. We use 2 on the sides and 3 or on top. After yesterday, we are no longer going. She usually charges my son $10 and me $7. I dont know why as we both have very short military style cuts and we always go together. I dont care as we always pay $20 to include tip so if she bills us at $10 each, like she did yesterday its still $20. My complaint is not about the price as it is still cheap at $10. Yesterday as she started cutting my hair she received a phone call, left me and spoke to someone in her native language (Chinese or something) on the phone for about 10-15 minutes. I wanted to leave but I was halfway cut so I stayed and waited. Then she came back, did not say excuse me or sorry or whatever and just kept cutting, phone rang again and she stopped again about 5 minuted later started cutting while taking still using one hand for the phone and one hand to cut. Needless to say, it was a horrible cut. A little courtesy would have been nice. Very frustrated customer, wont be coming back.

I walked in this barber shop because there was a banner that said $7.00 haircuts outside. When I walked in there was an asian lady standing there using a suck cut on a mans head. She didnt say hello and so I asked if there was a sign in sheet.....she just said, no...have a seat. I walked over and sat for 30 minutes and she said NEXT. (like I was in the DMV or something) I then walk over and sat in her chair and she says. "you hair cut...10 dollar, too long for 7 dollar cut" I was totally offended because I do not have long hair. ( above the ear and neck line) I stood up and said it would have been nice of you to have told me that BEFORE I sat for 30 minutes! She waived and shooshed me out the door telling me that price is only for customers who get their hair cut every 2 weeks! I was very upset and left the stale stinky place that smelled like a dead cat dog had urinated itself. I guess the saying goes you get what you pay for stands true there.

I went here the first time 15 min before close. The owner hastily cut and butchered my son and my hair. I thought maybe this happened because it was close to closing and gave her another shot. The second time I asked for a fade for both my son and myself. Once again she hastily cut our hair and just shaved our heads and never faded it. Horrible Barber, Not even worth the $10 and your time. Theres a better Barber off of Powers and Stetson hills next to the liquor store that does true fades for $11 , never been disappointed there.

If youre looking for a steller price, friendly owner, and a quality cut, you definately need to check this place out. I hate going to the big box stores only to find the gal thats been cutting my hair the last several months is no longer with the company. Ive been going to this place for a total of 4 years.

I saw the shop before and thought, oh cool a barber shop. I took my son in for a $7 haircut and they do not accept card. Only cash or check. Which really saved me since I didnt have any cash or check. One look at that shop and I wanted to walk out. This is not a barber shop. We did not get haircut, thankfully.

Shes cut my hair at least 8-10 times over the last 3 years and I have always been very pleased with the work she does. If your ego and vanity will suffer a $7.00 haircut, this is the place to go and I highly recommend it.

The last two reviews are way off. Get real people...its a $7 haircut. I have been going to this barber for the last 3 years and I have tried going back to other barbers and I end up paying $20 for the same haircut.

I was trimming my own beard -- what a disaster -- till I found Academy Barber Shop. Its the perfect barbershop and Im working it into my routine. Highly recommended.

I had my hair butchered at this shop! Avoid wasting your money and having a bad hair cut. It is not worth saving 4 bucks to have a crappy job done.

Mediocre haircut, nice staff, unkempt environment. There are better places in the springs to go
