I went to the place where I usually go for a haircut, and because it was a day where the price is…read morelower, the wait for a chair was at least 2 hours. So I tried Howie's Barber Shoppe. (The business card says "The Barber Shoppe," so I hope Howie is ok...) At any rate, I went to the aforementioned barber shop and was greeted by some nice people!!! I was also amazed by the shop itself; the place was laid out like the shop I used to get my hair cut when I was a kid on the Northwest Side of Chicago. Plus, there were many shelves along the walls filled with die-cast models of '55, '56 & '57 Chevys - cars and trucks. There were a couple GMCs, too! In the magazine rack were a couple hard-cover books about Mid-Fifties Chevrolets. Being an old gearhead and former car mechanic (among other auto-related occupations) I felt at home straight away! I was told my wait would be about 20 minutes, which was fine with me because it afforded me time to pour over the books in the magazine rack. When it was my turn I was greeted by a barber named Todd a gentleman with 33 years experience. We got into a conversation and I mentioned that I'm a musician and Todd told me that he is a drummer!!! I'll tell you if Todd plays drums like he cuts hair, he could walk into any venue and make the rhythm section shine. I got a fantastic haircut for a reasonable price that actually looked good on my misshaped head. (poor attempt at humor) sorry, I don't want to diminish the quality of the haircut I received - Todd is a skilled craftsman and good guy!! Everyone at The Barber Shoppe is nice and the prices are reasonable. The Barber Shoppe will be my 'Go-To' place from now on!!

I went there for the first time today and this is the best haircut I've ever had. The atmosphere…read moreis very welcoming, this is a barber shop from a bygone era. A place people would go to very regularly and everyone knows your name. Todd was very good at what he did and he used a straight razor on my neckline. I've never had anyone do that. Bottom line is: I had a great experience and will be going there again.

They always greet you with a warm, sincere welcome and truly appreciate your business. I have referred several people to this salon and everyone has given me positive feedback. These ladies love what they do and it shows. I usually have a mental picture of what I want and explain it the best that I can and Averyl always exceeds my original thought. I've seen her for regular cuts, big transformations, color, and eyebrow waxing. Highly recommend this salon for whatever you are looking for!
