    Uneven fade

    The vibe of the shop is fine. Nice leather chair, bar, TVs, music. But that's only superficial. My cut was the most traumatic thing I've experienced in recent years. Tagh'Reed Saeidah barley acknowledged me, no "Hello, how are you?" or even evaluation of my hair. Just "how do you want it, and how short on the sides" (other normal questions for anyone who cares often involve how they want the back tapered, how short the sideburns, how textured the hair, how you normally style it, what brings you here as a new client, etc). Then she proceeded to take clippers and just mash them against my head like she was trying to make mashed potatoes. It was rough, choppy, and rushed. It's seemed like she couldn't wait to get me out of the chair as soon as I sat in it. I knew there was no way the cut could be even and I'm the end it showed. Her brush that she uses to sweep hair off the neck and face was so rough and uncomfortable. The aftershave application stung as much as I thought it would, cause she was so harsh on my skin. Same as the beginning, no offer of product to style, no thanks. In the end, it was an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience. If I could leave her any suggestions, if she cared, it would be to SLOW WAY DOWN, get to know your client and do the job with care. If you're having an off day or whatever, don't mess up your customers day while you're at it.

    What's better than a super tight haircut and a beer on a Saturday morning? Super skilled craftsman will make you look your best.

    They do good work, while you enjoy a scotch/whisky and watch sports - it's a nice combination.

    They now charge a 6% fee for credit card. This doesn't feel acceptable for an upscale business like this.

    What was supposed to be a simple haircut unfortunately left me frustrated, and now I have to be…read morepatient and wait at least six months for my hair to grow back out. I decided to try a new local barber because it had been difficult getting a hold of my usual barber. Niko provided a great experience from a customer-service perspective. He genuinely tries to get to know you by asking questions during the haircut. Before getting started, he also asks what kind of cut you're looking for and repeats it back to make sure he understands. I told him I wanted a simple mid taper and specifically said nothing off the top. I already had my previous mid taper outlined from my regular barber, so I thought it would be a straightforward cut. After Niko finished, he handed me the mirror to see the final result. I was immediately shocked by how high he went with the taper in the back and how short the top had become. At the time, I didn't realize just how much had been taken off the top. It wasn't until I got home and washed my hair that I could really see how much had been cut. I understand that barbers have their own recommendations and may have suggestions for improving a haircut. However, if a barber believes taking a significant amount off the top is necessary, I feel the customer should be told before that hair is cut--especially when the customer specifically says they don't want anything taken off the top. Niko was friendly and provided good customer service, but unfortunately, the haircut itself was not what I asked for. I'm now left waiting months for my hair to grow back to where it was.

    Niko did a great job! I wasn't sure how to style it and he made me look fantastic. Relaxing…read moreatmosphere and ended with a warm towel face massage that was very relaxing. I will definitely be going back to him in the future.
