    Well, it's been said a barber shop is only as good as it's barbers. I recently returned to what was a great place to get a haircut to find out my barber no longer was there. I tried the new guy who was far far more worried about getting cashed out for the day than he was cutting my hair. I was the last customer on a Friday and the new guy's ride was waiting for him in the car. I was so disappointed when I got home and really saw the 1/2 a haircut I received. Fortunately, I walked into another shop the next day and bought the other 1/2 of my haircut. Quoting the words of the second barber, "dude, who cut your hair halfway?". Well, needless to say I'm disappointed. Not only did I pay more than double, I now have to find a new place to get my haircut.

    Ian gives a terrible haircut. Let me elaborate. This was my second cut from him. The first was about a month ago. My opinion of the cut was "good", but we'll fine-tune things on the second cut. New barber relationships are collaborative. So I walk in today for my second haircut with Ian. I was right on time. It's 10:30 AM. His second in command greets me when I walk in to ask if you have an appt. I replied "yup. With Ian" Ian was sitting in his chair in between me and the other guy who greeted me. He didn't look up from his phone. Hmm. Ok. I guess he's interested something important. So after about 30 seconds of standing I decided that I better take a seat on the couch. Eventually he got up and invited me to sit down. As I always do with any barber, just like the first time I went to this shop, I remind them of my scars on the back of my head. Then the cut begins. Within minutes - he effs off to fix his juke box. While this is going on his staff and some other heavy guy were pouring tequila and other stuff. Ian also had a glass (an "old fashioned" style glass) which had a small amount of SOMETHING in it. He says he has a medical condition and doesn't drink... ok. But folks in the shop WERE . At 10:30 AM. So he goes about chop chop chopping at my skull... and my spidey-senses started kicking in. There was a lot of fussing around back. As if re-spraying with water a super short haircut would make it grow back. So it's the end of the cut where the barber usually whips out the mirror to show you the cut. He does. But only from the front. Hmmmm. The barber ALWAYS spins the chair to hold the mirror to show the back. Not this guy... huge red flag. I paid, tipped, and left. The second I got in the car I took this photo to check things out. The picture says it all. hack job. I sent the photo immediately to him with a text. (See photos) Everyone has a bad day - but this was ridiculous. He didn't even admit to his mess when I texted him about it with a photo. I should've heeded the other bad Yelp reviews I read on this place. Never again. And neither should you. OH!!! I almost forgot. I had a haircut from my long-standing barber in LA in between the first one with Ian and this mess. I took a photo of the back/sides of my other haircut to show Ian the desired hair shortness. He had the nerve to look at it and scoff, "That's not my cut is it? Ya, I know it isn't. I'd never do that." Truer words were never spoken. Nope, he would "never do that" to my hair. He'd BUTCHER it instead. THIS JUST IN: Here's the owner, IAN's "response": 4/27/2022. HE REMOVED IT!! So I'm glad I cut and pasted his hxmoxphobic, and drunk, sounding "response" Just stop. Your comment will be buried like the rest. Keep in mind the comments before were before I owned it. Just don't come back. Got it? Your review doesn't mask the 5 stars we've had because I am straight and don't want to go out with you. Just remove this garbage or I can talk to your boyfriend that gets cut by me too. Maybe he actually was drunk this morning.... since just a few hours ago while I was in his chair I mentioned I've been married to my wife for 39 years. H0m0-bash much Ian? Once again - the proof is in the evidence.

    All good. Ian does a great job, and is sensitive to handicap needs. Also, parking is convenient.

On the day of the appointment, I was attended by a stylist who clearly lacked the necessary skills. The result was completely unsatisfactory, leaving my hair looking damaged and very different from what I had requested. I would like to emphasize that this was on my wedding day, which made the situation even more distressing. Another stylist attempted to intervene, but the result could not be corrected. Additionally, I was charged a higher amount than what had been previously agreed upon. Due to this experience, I had to rely on a friend, with very limited time before my event, to try to fix my hair. Given the circumstances, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this establishment.

Clean cut, great attention to detail, no rushing, no shortcuts. You can tell right away when someone actually cares about what they're doing -- and this was exactly that kind of experience. The shop itself is clean, calm, and professional. No unnecessary noise, no chaos, just a good atmosphere where you can sit back and trust the process. I walked out genuinely happy with the result, which honestly doesn't happen every time with barbers. If you're busy, picky, and don't want to gamble with your haircut -- this place is worth it. I'll definitely be coming back.
