I decided to check out primos based on the reviews found. My initial impression was that this place could replace my current go-to barbershops. Friendly service, exceptionally clean, and decent location. But when I sit back and think about my experience, it really doesnt compare to the high end barbershops Im accustomed to. The free drink. Its water, coke, or diet coke. Not really impressed when many other barbershops serve an actual shot of whiskey or beer. I was a bit surprised by this, seeing as other reviews mentioned "ohh I got a drink." I believe Razzle Dazzle, Mankind, Klips, and Tommys all serve alcohol included with the cost of a haircut. My haircut is rather simple, a fade (2-3 on top with a 1 on the sides). The hair cut was well done and the tapes were done with a straight razor. According to the website, it was supposed to come with neck and shoulder massage but the barber had another appointment and couldnt fit this in. Left me an ehh impression. Shave is were I think this place fell short. It was nice, and I had a good time talking with the barber, but it is nothing that can compare to other barbershops Ive been to. Normally, theyll apply hot towels on your face before the shave to loosen the pores. Instead, this place applies beard chemical softener followed by hot shaving cream. The shave was fairly close. As I got home, I had to grab my shaver and pass over a few areas such as the mouth, near the nose, etc. Many barbershops normally finish up a shave with a simple pass through with a safety razor to catch the hard to reach areas... but no biggie but worth a mention. If you do compare the closeness of the shave, higher end barbershops leave absolutly no friction on your face. As Im typing this and running my hand through the check I can feel short stuble in select few areas. Once the shave was complete, the barber then applied the hot towel followed by a cold one. This was most enjoyable. At the end of the haircut and shave came the shampoo and conditioner. Pretty standard and nothing to note. I believe it was Crew brand. Pros - Friendly service - Clean location - Modern facility with TVs at every station Cons - Trying to imitate higher end barbershops with free "drink" - post shave hot towel instead of pre shave - closeness of shave - scheduling should allow enough time for each client I would definitely go again for a haircut but I would rather go somewhere else for the shave.

I call to the primos barbershop and I asked to the front desk for Spanish and she said that she do speak Spanish but she was telling everything in English. When I got to the place I asked for a eyebrows cut and he doesnt do that, then I asked how much is going to be and a its $$25$$ crazy. That bad attention and that prices and they doesnt do the eyebrows cut, that crazy. Llamo a la peluquería primos y le pregunté a la recepción de español y me dijo que ella no habla español pero ella estaba contando todo en Inglés. Cuando llegué al lugar y pedí una cejas cortadas y él no lo hace, entonces me pregunté cuánto va a ser y de lo $$ 25 $$ loco. Que mala atención y que los precios y que no hacen las cejas cortadas, tan loco.

Unfortunately my barber and good friend passed away, may he rest In peace, and I was forced to look for another barber. I was brushing off getting a haircut because I just wasnt ready after getting a haircut with the same barber for 9 years. When I finally decided to get a haircut, I looked for a high end place and found this one so I decided to try it out. The experience was pretty AWFUL. First I showed a picture to the guy and he barely looked at it for 2 seconds and said "yea yea, I know what that is", so he started cutting my hair and just started chopping away with no structure. He would just cut here and there and come back and so on. I then asked him if he could wash my hair at the end because he wasnt going to and he said yes, but unfortunately he couldnt wash hair, he basically left my hair full of shampoo and just got a wet towel and wiped the shampoo off. He asked if I liked the haircut and I said not really because it was way too short and he responded with "it looks short because its wet, but when its dry it will look longer" which makes no sense! I have some longer pieces and some shorter pieces throughout my hair. Then I went on to pay $24 for this TERRIBLE service. This is the same service you receive at a cheap Hialeah hair salon and pay 7 dollars for. Expected way more. Wanted to post some pictures of the horrible haircut but the system wont allow it.

Went here today for a haircut after a slew of bad experiences. I was extremely happy I stopped in and gave this barber shop a chance. My time in the shop was relaxing and enjoyable as opposed to the last place I went with loud,rude,or just not skilled barbers along with a poor atmosphere and bad service. For the price it is absolutely worth a little extra I will go back again, I felt like I was in another time and place and left happy. If my visit goes the same next time I will upgrade to 5 stars, giving 4 because Ive only been once (cristina did a wonderful job) and I look forward to my next haircut for the first time in a long time. Thanks

this place was recommended to me by a good friend. he also heard about it from a friend. its a nice place, they offer you a beverage whilst you wait and they offer a few services: barber, shave, shoe shine. since day one, ive only ever cut my hair with Robert. hes a cool dude and hes meticulous. i highly recommend you go to him. tell him what youre looking for and hell sort you out. you can make appointments online and theres a membership that saves you 5 bux on anything over 20. pretty good deal, as the membership pays itself off after three cuts.

Decided to try Primos after having had many a bad haircuts and I have to say this is the best haircut and shave I ever had in my life. I have become a regular and couldnt imagine getting a haircut from any other place. The staff is friendly and always makes you feel welcome, I use to hate getting a haircut and now I look forward to it. If you never had a straight razor shave give it a try it will make you feel like a new man.

Great place!! Clean, sophisticated, and friendly. They fit us in at the last minute. When I called they were booked up until closing, but the receptionist called us back to let us know they could see us if we could make it there by a certain time. That is great customer service. The price is also exceptional. Includes neck and shoulder massage, a drink, shampoo, conditioner, and haircut. Will be back.

Simply put, I just got the best haircut in the last 20yrs at Primos! The service is top notch and the experience cannot be surpassed. I also took advantage of Richs blade skills and enjoyed a smooth straight razor shave that, in my opinion, also took 5 yrs. off my weary face. Dont wait till your next haircut, do yourself a favor and stop in ASAP even if it is just to get a shoeshine!
