We took our son here to get a haircut the last week in February. The previous haircut (NOT done…read morehere), the barber had cut his hair so unevenly and it was growing out terribly. Little dude needed it to be fixed, ASAP. We looked up places near us, and thankfully found this little gem. Called ahead, and they said they had time immediately so we drove on over. There were only two people working there that day, and the gentleman who I spoke with on the phone ended up cutting our sons' hair. I believe his name is Carl, but please forgive me if I am wrong. His chair is the first one when you come in on the left. He listened to what we wanted, was so good with little man (aged 4) and had such a natural rapport with him. He made the haircut such a breezy process and FINALLY his hair was even again! It was a perfect cut, and very reasonable ($13). It has been two months, and it is growing out the way it should be. We will be back, once the world is back up and running due to current quarantine but I really wanted to show 5 West some love!

Yes. One bad egg can ruin it for everyone. Brought my toddler there for a cut today. Would've been…read morehis fifth cut if I did not walk out. I believe the guys name was Rob (if he even gave me the right name) I can't remember because I was too pissed off. Right away when I asked for him not to be buzzed I wanted a scissor cut the back n forth started. Told me he was not able to use scissors on a kid because they move too much and it's dangerous. (I get the worry) Mr Pete did his first haircut (who was awesome) he used scissors no problem. Then two other awesome ladies did his hair as well no issue. My son definitely felt the negative energy already and acted on it. I should've trusted HIS instincts immediately. He knows who he doesn't like. Then he proceeded to tell me my son had too many cowlicks. He has ONE in the back of his head which is a swirl most boys tend to have. The rest I explained is because he went to sleep with wet hair and his natural wave took over. Starts cutting my son's hair without even a spritz of water. Gets annoyed when my son drops his binky. I then sat him on my lap and tried that way, and the frustration grew. I asked him can you still cut it fairly long if you used the buzzer and he replied that's what I've been trying to tell you. Um, sir, no you weren't. You had negative energy from the start and then told me I was being rude since I arrived. Anyone that knows me knows that is not my MO. I took my son and left. Now he has a wonderful cut. That was done WITH SCISSORS BTW! My son didn't like your attitude and neither did I! Never going back! Also stop smoking in your building it smells putrid in there. I'd love to give the others who we've worked with 10 stars but this jerk deserves zero. If you don't like your job do something else.

Great place to get a haircut Tom is awesome and friendly and gives a wow cut Very accommodating alsoread more

I had made a decision never to return to Empire after going there with my wife who wanted a certain…read morelook for me and want dto talk to the barber. His chair was closest to Laurel Ave. He literally PUSHED my wife out of the way as he cut my hair at a ragingly rapid pace and paid no attention to my wife's request. Totally did what HE wanted not what WE wanted. Then today on a whim I stopped back and had Tom cut my hair. He was a younger man in his late 20's. I told his specifically what I wanted and he went to work. He took his time and did a great job. and got rave reviews from myself and my wife who is trying to let my hair grow out to a certain style. He took his time and even shaved the back of my neck which no one there had ever done. I tipped him heavily because he did a great job and was responsive to our needs for how I wanted my hair cut. If Empire keeps him I will be returning. He works on Wednesdays. He is friendly and engaging while he cuts and maybe it takes him a bit longer than the others who do what THEY want. If all the barbers there worked like Tom did, I would rate the place 5 stars. He single handedly redeemed Empire for me and if he stays there I will be a repeat customer. Thank you Tom for restoring my faith in competent hair cutters, not older guys who rush the job to get you outage door.

The other barber tried to argue that it was the kid (who showed a picture of what he wanted) that couldn't communicate clearly. This and the fact that they leave a small "cash only" sign up at the register that you wouldnt be able to see until it's time to pay left a terrible taste in my mouth.
