A great little shop. Reminds me a lot of the barber shops that were near me when I lived in NYC…read more Unless you get there first thing when they open, be prepared to wait (the longest I've waited is 2 hours). There's only 2 chairs, and sometimes it's only the son working. Both barbers do an incredibly thorough job (way more than the cost suggests), so a decent cut will take 20 minutes or so. But in a way, I don't mind the wait. The TV in the corner is tuned to whatever station plays TV shows from the 70s most of the time, and the clientele all seem to know each other, so it's a friendly atmosphere that makes the wait just part of the experience. Highly recommended!

I need a haircut and decided to go to Mike's Barber Shop. I had never been before, but I made an…read moreappointment online a few days before. I came in and was quickly seen by my barber, Marquay. Marquay asked me what type of haircut I wanted and he provided the applicable trimming. The service was quick and he gave me a great haircut! He was never nice and accommodating to my requests. Mike's Barber Shop has a nice barber shop feel. They have the big chairs lined up and everything. It is nice if you are looking for that feel! Checking out was quick and easy. I paid at the front and they actually gave me two passes to a movie at Metro Movies, which is in the same shopping center! Altogether, I had a good experience at Mike's Barber Shop and will likely be back!

It is challenging to find a barber that you trust in the big 26'. Luis at Cousins barbershop is…read moreprofessionalism personified. He makes the experience a collaboration to ensure that he can see your vision of what you want/expect, and then executes flawlessly. He does not rush because it is as important to him that he gets it right, as much as it is important to you as well. As for the environment, it is a clean and comfortable space. The staff is very friendly and you can tell that they enjoy their craft and working with one another. 5 Stars!!!

Today I had an unfortunate event with Fresh Cutz here in town. Please see below screen shot and…read morecall log. I spoke with Chuck and appologized imediatley, I went to the wrong plaza (Mellilos pizza plaza on newfield). Not seeing any signage for this business, I went up to Great Clips. I was over 10 minutes away and told chuck I would not make it in time when he called me. Long story short he charged my card without my permission, for "being a no show". When I called for a manager they put him on the phone. It was like talking to a rock. I asked nicely and was not helped in anyway. People should be informed of scammy places like this.

Semmy's is a small, basic barber shop right off the corner of Washington and Main Streets. Notably,…read moreit is one of the few barber shops in town actually open on Sunday which is how I ended up here. Semmy is the 26 year old owner/manager who certainly works hard and knows what he is doing. He cut my hair and, like the people before me, took his time to do a good job. He is very casual but was friendly and it was comfortable setting. The price was $15 for a haircut which is better than lots of the nearby shops. Like many barber shops, there is a certain level of untidiness to be expected but I think things could have been a little cleaner. Semmy understood what I was asking for with my haircut but might have taken a little more off than I was anticipating. I am not one to get in a tizzy over my hair being too short but I do appreciate a barber who checks in on lengths throughout. Overall, a good shop and Barber. I would come back to Semmy.

My evening started with a massage treatment with Roz. The spa area is upstairs in a spacious yet private area. The room was clean and kept pleasantly warm for the cool evening. The massage itself was magic! Roz did a wonderful job easing my muscle tension and offering deep relaxation. Afterwards I had my hair trimmed by Sasha. I got my bangs and ends trimmed with angles put in to frame my face since it was one length previously and I wanted to change it up a bit. Sasha was very meticulous to detail and did an amazing job. My hair came out looking and feeling silky and healthy. Both ladies were very friendly, talented and attentive. Thank you Yelp reviewers - you didn't steer me wrong. As a new resident of the area, I'm happy to have found my new salon. I can't wait to go back for my next appointment. Love this place so much! Highly recommend it.

Note that what I want to say has nothing on the business itself. The owner, Jessica, is more than…read moreaccommodating and understanding and almost all of the stylists working in her salon are incredible. I went to the salon looking to do a balayage. I was told by hairstylist Jennifer in confidence that what I wanted can be easily done. 5 hours later and my hair was fried (had to cut more than two inches) and it had turned green/blue. And looked so disgusting that I had to keep my hair up or braided to not draw attention. The entire appointment Jennifer was rude and making excuses for the AWFUL things she was doing to my hair. She got to the point of cutting random chunks of my hair. I was naive and thought it was my fault based on the fact I had never lightened my hair before. She was blaming the way my hair was colored (wasn't colored), the way my hair was cut, and any other excuse she could pull. I later found out that this woman specializes in MENS HAIRCUTS. and had never mentioned to me once about how uncomfortable she was or unconfident that she could do a good job. She kept me under the dryer for almost 40 minutes with bleach and foil in my hair. And toward the end of the appointment admitted defeat by saying "I don't care what clients think of their hair, as long as I like it I know I did a good job." It's safe to say I got a refund from the owner who again, was incredibly nice. I'm just baffled that this other professional did not mention her uncertainty once and royally messed up my completely healthy hair. I was able to fix it at Beautiful People salon in Cromwell (see my review on their page to see final results). I will never be asking for Jennifer again, and am so disappointed with how unprofessional the entire experience was.
