Ive had my haircut done by Varten and Angelo. Both gentleman have done a great job. They are methodical and precise. I usually do a high 0 fade with a short top. My hair can be tricky to cut because of the cowlicks at the crown and forelock of my head. But after explaining what I was looking for, they made it look easy. Great guys and super talented. Highly recommend.

Angelo gave my brother an excellent haircut, and I should know because I’m a hairstylist. It was a very pleasant experience.

The haircut was okay, but I was expecting more for the price I paid. The entire service felt rushed—done in about 10 minutes—and lacked attention to detail. I expected hair styling, a clean razor shave around the neckline and face, and to be shown the finished haircut with a mirror, but none of these were provided. Additionally, this was the only shop where I wasn’t asked about doing my eyebrows, which is usually standard. Overall, the experience didn’t meet my expectations.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.<br><br>We’d like to clarify a few service details. Eyebrow trimming is included with a haircut but does need to be requested directly with the barber. Any eyebrow shaping or threading must be selected online at booking and does carry an additional charge. Or you can ask the barber at the time of your haircut to do your eyebrows. We are not required to ask if a client need their eyebrows done.<br><br>Hair styling and straight razor work around the neckline and face are included in the service as well, and we encourage clients to let the barber know if they would like these done.<br>During your visit, we did check to see if everything with the haircut looked okay.<br>We understand your concern about the service feeling rushed, and that’s not the experience we strive to provide. Your feedback helps us improve, and we’d appreciate the opportunity to serve you better in the future.

Got a clean skin fade and a sharp beard line-up — easily one of the best cuts I’ve had in a while. Barber took his time, paid attention to detail, and made sure everything was even and fresh. Chill atmosphere, good conversation, and left the chair feeling brand new. Highly recommend if you’re looking for precision and quality.

I’ve been coming here for a couple of years now and I couldn’t be happier. He’s consistently excellent, professional, detail-oriented, and makes sure I leave happy. Booking an appointment is super easy, and I never have to wait when I show up, which I really appreciate. It’s a laid-back, no-frills spot. Highly recommend!

I took my son to get his hair cut done. Varten did an awesome job. He was very patient and very friendly. He is been cutting my sons hair for more than 10 years now. The place is very clean. I highly recommend him.

Varten is a great barber! I’ve been going to him for over a year now after searching for a barber that’s nearby with availability that matches my ever-changing schedule. He’s very friendly, professional, and super consistent. Using his Booksy page is a convenient way to schedule an appointment too.

Varten is always very pleasant and is an excellent barber. He is fast, efficient, and has never given me a bad haircut in the years of going to him. I really like that he also takes reservations through the Booksy app so I don't have to wait in a first come, first serve line. Overall, always a great experience getting my hair cut here.

Varten is one of a kind. Pro to say the least. Very thorough with the cut. Detail oriented. Takes his time to get the details right. It's very hard to find a local barber that knows how to cut the current styles. His prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.
