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 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.

I've been there twice. First time my wife had made me an appointment for 2:00 but nobody greeted me…read moreor asked if I had an appointment so I just sat down. One of the three barbers left while I was waiting and several walk-ins were seated before me. I was finally seated about an hour later. The hair cut was good not great. Today I went back as a walk-in. I arrived shortly before 2:00, the 3 chairs were filled with one person waiting. Again, no greeting, no inquiry as to if I had an appointment, I had to look down to verify I was indeed visible. As I waited my turn, one after one walk ins came in and were taken ahead of me, seemingly because they knew the guys. After waiting 30 minutes a guy walks in, says hello to one of the barbers and the barber asks if he has an appointment, he responds he does not. He was taken next. 45 minutes into my wait one of the 3 barbers leaves. Someone finally addresses me to inform me that if I wish to continue waiting it will be another hour. Wow! So I ask if I can make an appointment for the next day, dude looks at his phone and says "maybe come in tomorrow around 2:00". Trying to support young local business' I agree, but he didn't ask my name and didn't make any notation on his phone or paper. I think they do a decent job, but unless you know them, find a place that honors appointments and takes walk ins based on when they walked in. I'd rather pay a few more dollars in exchange for my time being respected.

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.

She must have used a very strong developer (or something) because what I walked out with was ORANGE, BRASSY hair. Not to mention that my hair STARTED SMOKING when Kelly Marie had it in the foils. I alerted her, she made a face like, "Oh no," unfolded the foil, took a look & just closed it back up & left it on for another 15 or so minutes...what in the world?! End result, the entire top of my head lost about 8 inches and then they had the nerve to charge me $200+ for it! I was realistic in my color choice & was still staying in the "dark" color family so why did I walk out with orange, brassy hair? When I say orange...I mean literally orange. I was too nice since I saw Kellys eyes get watery when I told her it wasn't what I wanted and I didn't notice the fall out until I got home. The next day, I went back and had Sammy Jo try to fix it. She applied a nice color that quickly washed off after my 1st wash. All I was left with was dried, orange, shreds of long and short brillo-like hair. Only if you don't like your hair, then you can give them a try. Maybe they'll do a nice job with cuts but I woudn't trust them with color or anything that involves chemicals.
