Absolutely the best barber for kids—especially the tough haircut kids!
My grandson has only one barber in this world who can give him a successful haircut, and that’s Jim. I don’t know what kind of magic this man has, but Mason listens to every instruction he gives without a single meltdown. Anywhere else, it’s a completely different story!
Jim has a calm, confident way about him that kids pick up on, and he somehow manages to get Mason through a full haircut like a champ. I just sit back, pretend I’m not watching, and let the magic happen. ✂️😄
I am going to tell you that my grandson who is 4 1/2 years old has a full-blown meltdown anywhere else he goes to get a haircut. He has been to salons that specialize in kids haircuts and it does not make a difference. I do not know if it’s Jim‘s appearance or what but I will tell you that he is the absolutely only person that has been able to successfully give our grandson a haircut not once but twice now and I will add that in between these two haircuts, my son has tried to take him to a different barber that he goes to, and it was a no go.
If your child struggles with haircuts or gets overwhelmed easily, trust me—this is your guy. We won’t go anywhere else! Highly recommend!

Reviews
I’ve been seeing Jim routinely for 2 years now, only Barber shop I go to. Jim & his team have the ability to envision the style you are aiming towards with just a few descriptive words. From the complimentary beverages to the exceptional service it’s hard to find something to complain about at Classic Barbers.
We love classic barbers! A welcoming atmosphere and great hair cuts. They do a great job with kids. My son loves getting his hair cut there!
