2709 N Elizabeth St, Pueblo Colorado 81003
I was looking for a new barber shop, and I'm pretty sure I found the best one in Pueblo!
After all the shops closed in 2020, my wife began cutting my hair. To be fair, she does a really good job, but I wanted a professional barber who could finesse a fade, trim a beard, and provide a service that really can't be found at home.
I mentioned this at my middle school one morning, and immediately one of my favorite students recommended Los Reyz. He described where it was located -- right down the street from the best dry cleaners in town (Dundee) -- and I made it a point to pay my first visit that Friday.
I walked into a shop with such a solid, groovy, welcoming vibe that I instantly felt comfortable and at home. One of the barbers asked if I had an appointment, and when I said unfortunately no, Elias quickly said he would take me as soon as he was finished with his current haircut.
I settled into their cushy sofa, kicked back, listened to some excellent slaps coming from their excellent speakers, and watched Elias work his magic on the other customer. It was like watching a skilled artist, craftsman, and surgeon all rolled into one. I was totally mesmerized.
When it came time for my turn, Elias warmly invited me into his chair and carefully listened while I explained what I wanted. Not only did he do just exactly that, but he even surpassed my expectations with a better fade treatment that I've ever had. It was perfection!
In my whole 61 years on this beautiful planet, never have I ever had a barber or hairstylist take their time with such patience and expertise. This was by far the best haircut I've ever had, and the conversation was truly exceptional to boot.
On top of being at the top of his game, Elias is kind, intelligent, and down-to-earth. What an excellent human being, as well as a consummate barber. I can't wait till my next haircut, but this time I will make an appointment.
