The new owner is not friendly at all & the atmosphere inside is just weird.... especially with a huge dog. My haircut is OK but It's not an enjoyable place to get your haircut anymore. It saddens me.

At 77 years of age, I've had lots of haircuts (and beard trims) in lots of places. These places…read moreinclude where I live, Gainesville, as well as NYC (many times and the same place). My wife and I agree this is THE best place I've ever gotten both. I remember the first time I went there.....I was walking down Main, saw the barber pole, needed a haircut so I poked my head in. Owner (Michelle?) was sitting in a chair eating. . . I asked can I get a haircut and got the look. I said, "I can come back later." She said, "Get in the chair." I did and just will not go anywhere else now. I have had my hair cut and beard trimmed several times now and have told my wife, I only get hair and beard cut in Sarasota. We get to go back more often now. LOL....She is the best, period....hands down.

Good Cut, Pleasant Conversation. After decades of going to a…read morestylist, I decided that maybe I only need a barber (yes, it costs less). I drive past this barber shop often and the reviews were good so I gave it a try. I am glad I did. There was a wait (Wednesday early afternoon). Very friendly and comfortable - There was pleasant conversation among the barbers, customers in the chairs, and customers waiting. The haircut included a back of the neck, straight razor shave. (They will also trim a person's beard along with a haircut.) I am definitely making Braden River my go to for haircuts.

It clearly states on their website that a head shave is $25.00. When it came time to pay, I asked how much. The barber who serviced me said $38.00. Rather than create a stink, I just paid. So 5 stars for the actual service and 0 stars for shaving my wallet as well. Honesty is Always the best policy.
