As a guy on a budget, most often, I go to one of the more inexpensive chain salons, like Supercuts or Fantastic Sams, to get my hair cleaned up about once a month, and this is no problem for me because my cut is a simple and classic short back and sides (like what your (great) grandfather mightve worn in the 1950s and 60s). However, twice a year I try to spend a little extra to get a good cut from an actual barber. The systems kinda like how some people might pay a kid down the street to mow their lawn most of the time, but every once in a while they pay a landscaper to come out and do it to get everything back to the way its supposed to be. Well, since my usual barber a) has become too much of a hipster hangout, and b) is now on the opposite side of town from me, I decided to try this place, especially since it has 4.4 stars and 19 reviews as of the time I went yesterday. Driving up, it didnt look too promising as what I can only assume were two of the employees were just hanging out in front of the place, like it were a club or a bar, but I like to find cool little places that are unassuming because they tend to be the best, so I still went in and gave them a try. Now, when I came in I felt completely out of place. They have two couches with furniture covers on them for waiting seating, and both were completely taken by what looked like two 13-15 yo kids crashed out, hair everywhere on the floor, and it just seemed crowded, chaotic, and confused in there. I was about to turn around and walk out, because I was on a tight schedule and couldnt afford to wait, when one of the barbers came and asked if I was ready. He took me to his chair in the back and asked me what I was looking for. In general, his demeanor was pleasant and very customer service oriented, contrary to what some of the other reviews have said, and it put me at ease and gained my trust (this is why they have two stars instead of one). I told him what I wanted, and he agreed and asked if he could straighten up some of the lines on my beard. I agreed and told him that if they needed straightening to go ahead; now I wish I hadnt consented. I say this because the end result of this cut was that I came out looking like I let an amateur hair stylist/a student cut my hair in her backyard. He cut one side too short, buzzing it all off, left the top too long, left tufts on the sides and back completely uncut, left the lines around my ears unmatched (one of the more important details, the left side is noticeably higher than the right), cut my sideburns too narrow, and he practically shaved off my beard. As to the beard, it looks like he was trying to change my full beard into a chinstrap, but, and Im not exaggerating, not a single line was straight and patches were left uncut underneath. This shouldnt have been a surprise, though, because he kept checking his phone and texting with someone throughout the cut. As a result of the cut, rather than give him a chance at making it worse, I rushed home, putting off the other things Id planned on doing, fixed my beard (I had to shave it into a goatee to make it look right), then went to my usual place to get everything fixed. All in all, this cut has now cost me about $40; $20 for Hall of Fame, and $11 at Fantastic Sams. I will never be back, and would encourage you to stay away, too, or live to regret it.

A friend recommended this place despite the negative reviews, we took my 6 yr old nephew . My nephew is on the Autism Spectrum. So yes the loud music someone complained about was a little over stimulating. However once he saw noticed and i asked if he could turn down the music he was happy to do so. I feel really bad because i know we were in the way of the barber but once he saw that it took 3 people to hold him down he understood. The price was great for the excellent service we received. Yes there are a few different people in there as someone said before in their review but they were just as nice! We will definitely be back. Thanks to the only white barber in there. Im sorry i didnt know your name but it was a very stressful moment for all of us! Great job! Ty again!

Some barbers are good but be careful who you choose. I recommend watching the barbers while you wait. Theres a tall and big Puerto Rican guy that doesnt do a good job. Also, this place is kinda sketchy because a lot of guys come in, talk to the barbers, hand them stuff (drugs?), and then walk out. In fact, there was a time where some guys were smoking weed in their car. Just a heads up.

Great cut, Jamar is an artist/surgeon! He paid great attention to my son who can be a little difficult. The atmosphere is laid back and comfortable so if you wait a bit, you get to catch your breath and slow down for a while. We all need that. Its nice to visit a place that pays so close attention to their clients the way they do.

The people inside were nice and the environment wasnt bad but I received one of the worst haircuts of my life. My buddy that I went with also had such a bad haircut that he had to get it re-cut by another barber.

I like this spot a lot. Nolan does a great job there. There are also Moors working here if your seeking knowledge there smart. Mad respect for them. The music is usually on point
