Finding the right barber for kids isn't easy, especially when you have two boys with completely…read moreopposite styles! One of my sons likes a clean, simple cut with pointy sideburns, while the other wants bold designs and perfectly squared sideburns. Curtis nails both every single time. We've been taking our boys to Curtis for years, and even though he's moved farther away, he's absolutely worth the drive. He's fantastic with kids, knows how to make them feel comfortable, and genuinely takes the time to connect with them. He's friendly, kind, and intentional with every haircut. What I appreciate most is that even though my boys know exactly what they want, Curtis never forgets Mom's input. He listens, pays attention to the details, and consistently delivers exactly what we're looking for. If you're looking for a barber who truly cares about his craft, takes pride in his work, and provides exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Curtis. We wouldn't trust anyone else with our boys' hair!

I can't say enough good things about Curtis! He has been our go to for years! He does my husband's…read morehair, and also our 6 year old son who is on the spectrum. Not only does he do an amazing job, he has been so patient and kind with our son, and through his kindness and consistency our son absolutely loves coming to see him to get his hair cut now. We will forever be Curtis's customers! Do yourself a favor and ask for Curtis, you will not be disappointed!

Barber: attention to detail, you will not get anywhere else. The barbers all have expert hands. Each cut is tailored and the fact that they remember your name is enough to bring any leader or young lad in! The place is clean, it's family friendly and the floors are sleek! Parking- super easy. Make an appointment or just walk-in. Enjoy the total barber experience! read more

Great place to get any style you want your hair cut. From a standard Fade, Taper, to Rockabilly cuts. The barbers are experts at what they do. Using very high quality equipment from their Scissors to their clippers. I give Blend Cut & Shave my highest recommendation for any cut you want! read more

Not sure why it says closed.. it's definitely open…read more Either way I actually like this place. I went to a couple different shops to get a cut hoping they would take a walk in, and they were all booked up. I came here and got right in, score! The barber was really nice and took his time with my hair. The shop is clean and they have movies playing on multiple tv's. The prices are a little high in my opinion but being able to walk in a get a cut is worth the extra 5 bucks. Also there was a puppy in the back room crying, it didn't bother me honestly. I'm sure they just got the puppy and it was getting used to the shop but I could see how someone else could be a little impatient with it, especially if they're allergic or something. That's the reason for 4 starts instead of 5. Over all I would come here again. Great cut by a good barber.

I went at an odd hour and was immediately serviced by Chris. I only had a vague idea of what I wanted my hair to look like, but Chris brought it to life. He used every tool in his arsenal and though I never faced the mirror, I knew that this guy was going all out. He put tons of effort into cutting my hair, even going so far as to bust out the straight razor to clean up my hairline. The price is a little high ($25), but you do get what you pay for. You go to a place like this to look good, and I've never walked out of a haircut with so much confidence before this place. 100% satisfied, and I will be coming back again. Chris is the man!
