I have been going to Lillian for almost two years for my haircuts and beard trims. Lillian is a meticulous professional who takes pride in her profession. I will not let anybody else cut my hair. I highly recommend her as a barber and stylist.
Lillian is an absolute rockstar! I met her through my fiance, she has been his barber for years and he has followed her where she goes. She is so kind and when I was in need of a quick cut on a few occasions, she has bent over backwards to fit me in and get it done for me. She is extremely accommodating and has such a great personality, I recommend her to anyone I know!!
Chris was the 2nd barbershop that I tried when I moved to Boise. It's the one I've stayed with since 2020. I look for 2 things: a consistent, skilled barber that understands hair patterns and what looks good - and then how to achieve it and someone I enjoy talking to as I'm there for an hour once a month. Chris nails it every time. He's open to feedback and I truly enjoy our conversation. We don't agree on every topic but he brings educated perspectives and is also a great listener. Anyone looking for a great cut and conversation shouldn't look any further.
