    This is the manager owner who was extremely unprofessional and dismissive.

    We made our second appointment at Emerson Joseph three months in advance for my son. Our appointment was changed and our hairdresser was changed without our knowledge. No phone call or text asking if the new time or provider was okay. The day befmore the appointment, I received a text to confirm the appointment with the new time. I didn't notice the new time and just hit Y to confirm. Then got another text day of that said we were late. I called and the manager tried to scold me saying "didn't you get our text". Once we arrived I asked to speak to her. She was snotty and dismissive. I asked for her name and she refused to give it to me and told me that I had to "sit down" and "stop screaming". I am an attorney and professional and never even raised my voice. She also said she was the owner. So that is zero stars. We will not support such terrible unprovoked unprofessional service.

    I went to Emerson Joseph thanks to a package my wife bought for my birthday. I got a 60 minute massage, hand detail (manicure) & foot detail (pedicure). I worked which Sara while I was there, she was talkative and very nice. Massage ($80): Sara was awesome, she did a mix of a Swedish massage and a deep tissue massage were I was having some extra pains. The atmosphere was soothing (although I could vaguely hear some outside conversation and music). Extremely professional and I'd definitely recommend her and EJ for this service. Hand Detail ($20): Simple enough ... they clean your cuticles, file down your claws, and buff them. I've never had a manicure before so I'm not able to compare, but it was quick and harmless (much to my dismay). Foot Detail ($50): This is a little pricey. The service was good, and if you're already here for something else I'd recommend it if you're looking for one. I would make a stop at an actual nail place if that's all you're looking for, however. EJ's was basic, cuticles, scrub, file, clip. I've gotten one once before my wedding, and it was $40 bucks and had all of the above, and also included a hot paraffin wax dip with a hot stone calf and foot massage.

    I love the woman who cuts my hair. I love the concept. I only like the experience because if it's management. What is the concept? A full spa for men. A masculine form of pampering. Attractive women sashaying about and a male clientele. Haircuts, shaved, facials, massages, pedicures and manicures are all on the menu and while you are enjoying these you can enjoy a complimentary beer and have your shoes shined. The woman who cuts my hair is very pleasant and does a really good job. She even trims my eyebrows while she is at it. The woman who gives me my massage is very good, a real pro. And the woman who provides the facial does s good job and is really funny to boot. So, why only three stars? Management. They have screwed up my account for three years (I prepay a volume commitment of services to get a discount). And now I find that the commitments the general manager made to get me to renew last year will not be kept costing me potentially several hundred dollars in lost services! Needless to say I will not be renewing and probably will not be going there after next month. Too bad.

    Excellent stylist who take the time to give you a great cut while you are pampered with a cold beer or hot coffee, your nails are cleaned up and your shoes are shined all in one setting. If you need a shave, facial or massage they offer those services too in a cool men's salon setting. My favorite salon in Charlotte.

My review is based on my visit - Friday afternoon - 5 April 2024. Don't be a fool - This place gets busy for good reason; - Caliber's is "Classy" and employs only Quality and Skilled Barbers; They offer an array of Men's Grooming Services - which I'm looking forward to trialing in the next few months. I was extremely impressed by the professionalism and efficiency of scheduling my service. I spoke with "Genevieve" - She was extremely patient and courteous, I had to move my appointment around a bit. Upon arrival at my visit, I was offered a cold and refreshing beverage of my choice and they have an incredibly comfortable seating area to relax. The entire experience is catered to the Customer and you start to feel comfortable and relaxed - the moment you walk through the door. This Barber Shop is clean, spacious and shouts an old school vibe; - Just a very classy place. Parking "Could" be a bit of a challenge; - But, just relax - I promise you that you will find something. Worst case scenario, they have some paid options with minimal cost and/or you can find something on the street. This is really a hopping neighborhood! This wouldn't be a "Proper" review if I didn't take a minute to talk about the "Star of my Experience" - Master Barber "Brian L." - I'm not sure if I was a Customer / Client and/or Patient - But, "Brian" was just a star; - I have to confess - I cheated, "Brian" received tremendously exceptional feedback about his personality, service delivery and Master Barbering Skills from my boy "Mark" - who stumbled upon him - on his quest to find the perfect haircut and shave. I went with the Full Service Haircut; - I really wanted to get a Shave as well - But, I arrived with "Insufficient Beard" for that! - Anyways - Lavender infused Hot Towel send me into Nirvana; Brian shaved my neck perfectly. Overall - the entire experience was pampering and relaxing - every aspect of it. Let me wrap it up, I'm happy to report - I found my Barber in Charlotte - "Brian L." - I also found my Barber Shop. A+ / 5 Stars / Cinco Estrellas! ;-)

I've been going to see Emily who takes care of the cut pretty well. There have been some times where she gets super backed up so I wait - even when presented the option to have someone else (that is free) to do my hair. My problem is that I am getting older and I just really like sticking to the "plan" and not having to explain my haircut a million times to new people. Also a problem when getting older, I like convenience so this place is not that far from me. It has a parking deck (CLUTCH) and is super easy for me to get seen here.

I don't think the management here is very good. There is a lot of turnover, which is a indicator of bad management. A lot of of the stylist I have grown to love over the years, have moved to completely different salons. The stylists have never complained about the management, because they are professional, but I get a sense that that is an issue. Still, on the hole, this is the place I still go to get my haircut and still am able to find excellent stylist that can basically give me any cut that I want.

    Do not come here if you are expecting a great hair cut. I was really disappointed with the service…read moreI received here for several reasons: 1. I was given a hard time because I wouldn't take off my mask as they stated "it is not possible to give a hair cut with a mask on." I went against my better judgment and decided to give them a shot anyway despite the reluctance the hairdresser had to actually put on a mask in exchange for taking mine off. 2. The hair cut itself was very rushed and was paid no attention. I said not to cut it too short twice, showed a picture of exactly how I wanted it, and it still was cut really short... 3. This place doesn't feel welcoming or friendly so that combined with the issues above shouldn't warrant the price they charged. I have had better experiences at cheap franchises at half the cost. All in all, it was a really poor experience and I really have a hard time finding any positives.

    It seems like finding a talented barber in the Southpark and the surrounding area is difficult…read more Cutting hair is an art form and it takes a kind of passion and appreciation of hair and the hair cutting tools to do it right. In a time when ADHD is the norm, the mark of real talent is knowing how to cut the remaining hair of balding guys, let alone a full head of hair. I found Dapper by accident, and I am very happy with this gem. I now schedule from their website easily. Stephanie listens to my concerns of how to cut my five strands of hair (sarcasm), and quickly handles all those concerns with adept talent. The cut ends with a hot towel and a neck shave, (they take Apple Pay!), I was off to my next appointment.
