Accompanied a friend of mine who needed a haircut and shave the day before his wedding. We were both offered (among other choices) cognac, even though I wasn't a paying customer.
The chat was good, the haircut was great and very speedy. Then came the hot shave and goatee shaping: expert-level.
The price was reasonable considering how few shops will even do a hot shave these days.

I took my son here this weekend for his first haircut. We're celebrating his second birthday next week and I wanted him to have a nice new cut for his party. While the experience here was fine, the outcome was... well, underwhelming.
I chose this place after it came up multiple times in a Google search for "black hair barbershop." Coming from Los Angeles, I was skeptical about finding a place...

Horrible service!! I was in town for the weekend and needed my side part shaved. I get it done by my barber all the time and it literally takes 2 minutes.... Probably less.

Not only was she rude about it but there was a barber waiting doing... plus
The barbers here are great at doing fades but I did not like the atmosphere. We were not greeted as we entered the shop and the barbers were unfriendly and arrogant. My boyfriend had a nice hair cut but not worth supporting a business where customer service is not important.
An absolute joke!!! If you are gonna charge people $40/cut, I would expect you to respect your appointment times. I don't care how cool
you guys think you are, it simply does not work that way! The barber was clearly running way behind schedule yet had no problem spending time taking a bunch pictures of the cut he had just done... Instead of being worried about the next picture you are posting...

Sometimes booking gets mixed up but its never THAT bad.
love the head massage and service provided.
Worth going to check it out at least once.
I'm a guy with thin facial hair who uses a safety razor employing the three pass method. One with the grain, one across the grain and one against the grain. I've been doing this for years so I know how difficult the process can be. It takes a certain amount of practice to get it all right. I nick myself and I also give myself some razor burn every now and then.
I came for a straight razor...
