The shop has a long-standing reputation, with loyal clients who have been coming for over 30 years.
I was sort of skeptical when I first walked in, but this guy hands down gave me the best haircut I've ever had. I'm 30 and I've been self-conscious about my receeding hairline these last few years, but I walked out with a haircut that made me feel younger and way more attractive. It's been about two weeks since the haircut and I still think it looks great! I wish I had switched to this barber years ago.
John, the barber, is the third generation barber in this location. Both my father and I enjoyed and enjoy, respectively John's knowledge of the local political scene and a fine and inexpensive haircut. John is closed on Wednesdays.
I was not sure what I had gotten myself into sitting third in line for a $12 haircut. The other two men seemed to be regulars. The barber did not ask questions. But, when asked, he covered a wide variety of topics including local politics, local weather, medical conditions, literature, and fishing. Each haircut took less than 15 minutes. The barber only takes walk-ins. He is no nonsense and a serious cutter of hair. Each of the guys before me and I asked for different cuts and he delivered to each person's satisfaction. He provides a no thrill haircut, no prewash, no hair blower, no conversational intrusion, just a fast, straight forward and dry haircut. I'm from out of town and I plan to return before I leave.
