Phenomenal service. Never felt so comfortable in a barbershop atmosphere. I've never left the shop not satisfied with my haircut. I highly recommend to take your business to him clips if you are looking for a high quality and sharp haircut.

Amazing service. I was looking for a barber since I moved here and these folks do a wonderful job. I get my beard and haircut done and I’m always satisfied and relaxed. The barbers are skilled and friendly. Their suggestions are also wonderful. I loved the atmosphere, music, and location. They also offer libations for the longer cuts. Giovanni and Peter are awesome! Parking is easy too. It’s a little on the pricey end (still competitive with other local barbers) but worth the price. Love that they take their time and are extremely detailed. 10/10 would recommend!

The experience left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth, which made me decide not to have a second visit.In truth, the 4* experience was likely a one off situation, but that’s all it takes for a customer to be a one-and-done, as opposed to a long term patron.All said, it’s… read full review
