I could tell…read morefrom the very first interaction that there was something more to his demeanor, as if his treatment of me was influenced by something other than just business. I was new to the area and arrived a several minutes late to my first ever appt due to trouble navigating the area, only to be met with his stank attitude and him berating me. There was not a single person in the shop so I was not holding anyone up. Instead of handling the situation like a professional, he starts talking to me with attitude like I'm 12 years old. I'm a grown man (I did 10 years in the US Army). There is never an excuse to treat a potential paying customer with such disrespect. You don't talk down to people, no matter the situation especially as a business owner. I'm honestly shocked that a barber would engage in this kind of behavior. Many reviews of the shop were good. Absolutely avoid this establishment as there are so many other barbers you could go to. Why take a chance on someone who has an attitude?

They all looked great. If it were possible, I would commute to Blacksburg for future haircuts.

While you wait for your haircut you can catch up on classic episodes of Gunsmoke or Andy Griffith. Brad is a super nice, laid back gentleman who has a true appreciation for old school barbers. I've never had a bad haircut, and the straight razor treatment with hot steamed towel is the way to go. He also offers discounts to students, and it's cash only! First time I was there, Brad cut my hair and trusted me to come back. What a nice guy! It's funny, when a day or two after my hair was cut. I'll have a friend say, "you'd go see Brad?"

I'm also just now realizing that...I don't think its cool anymore to say "dude" or "dudebro". Whatever. I'm in my 30's. I should probably refer to myself as an adult male...or at least a guy. Yeah...Okay.... I'm a guy. Just wanted to set the record straight before I explain that most "guy" haircuts...are pretty simple unless the man-chilada has beautiful golden locks...or he has a skullet...also called a bullet (balding mullet) a la Brett Michaels (you know that's why he wears a do-rag, right? Oh shit...Remember that dating show he was on. Thanks for paving the way for crappy reality dating shows Brett! You suck!) Where was I? Hm... Oh yeah..."guy" haircuts are typically not that difficult...however, for some stupid reason, almost everyone who cuts my hair ends up making me look like an over zealous 5 year old who just got his first pair of safety-scissors. Until I met Marvin...Marvin was this Peruvian, loud and proud diva who could cut the shit out of some hair. Anyway...Marvin was my main hair cutting squeeze for 8 years until I moved across the country. Quite honestly...the one thing I was not looking forward to was finding someone else to cut my hair...because honestly...it feels like I'm cheating on Marvin...plus he always gave me inspirational one liners like..."Shut up...you look greeeaat" and "chyour wife looked great in that picture you posted yesterday...chyes I was stalking your facebook..soooo whaaat?!". Anyway...what I'm trying to say is I called around a couple of places...that were supposed to be good. One of them said I had to get an appointment a week in advance...Dude...You're a barber...not a dentist. Get your shit together. Anywhosies...So... I called Corporate Image to make sure I didn't have to wear a 3 piece suit to get a trim and they set me up with an appointment for a few hours later. Prompt service...Check. I get there...There's a kid getting his haircut. Dude looks happy. Dudekid... whatever...He was just chilling. My stylist (Penny) brings me up asks me what I want...and I pull the douchiest move ever by pulling up my facebook and like a typical moron (is it still PC to call someone moron?) and saying..."I want this [points to crappy selfie] with a number 3 on the sides." Penny didn't even bat an eye. She just gets to cutting. We did a little chatting but straight up...she finished my haircut in like what seems like 2 minutes. Quite honestly...I was dying to get home to see how bad she screwed it up. I checked in the mirror. Everything loooooooked fine...I payed...tipped (because thats what man-bros do)...and I rushed home to do the ultimate test. I put in my Murray's Pomade. Straight up. Penny nailed it. Crushed it...knocked it out of the park and for that...she's earned a customer-for-life and an really long, way-off-tangent 5-star review. Thanks Penny.

I've been looking for a good barber for my son for about three years since I moved to SML. It's…read morebeen pretty difficult honestly. So when I looked on yelp & found this business I was excited & hopeful that it would work out. I made an apointment with Steve via their website for a Saturday apointment at 12:00. I drove all the way to Roanoke from the lake & at 12:00 Steve texted & said he didn't feel well and that he wasn't going to come into the shop at all that day. Now, I understand not feeling well...life happens. But to wait until the exact time of my apointment was piss poor. Now, I'll get to why I still gave this business a 5 star review. When we got the text that Steve left us high & dry CHASE stepped up & offered to cut my son's hair. He was crazy busy all by himself in the shop on a Saturday & he still squeezed us in. He took his time on my son's hair--he could have rushed him through & finished quickly, but Chase took his time & it really showed. I absolutely love my son's hair cut & I'll definitely bring my kid back to get his hair cut with Chase.

I waited for like 10 minutes before he finally came in the shop. Didn't introduce himself just told…read moreme to sit down in the chair. I should have got up and left the moment he had this dazed look like he was under the influence of something. Moved to Roanoke from San Diego so this was my first experience with a barber. Chase was the only one I could find with availability (should have been a warning sign) I've been getting the same cut for the past 10 years. Medium low skin fade, trim up the top. NOOO HIGH AND TIGHT. He never repeated back to me what I said, he just grabbed his clippers on a zero and ran a line up my head. He just kept cutting up and up and finally I was like dude I literally said no high and tight. At this point I already knew my hair was butchered, I didn't even want to see it, then on top of that he charges like $35 for subpar work, definitely will not be going back.
