Jr has been cutting my hair for about 3 years. In these three years he’s guaranteed me professionalism, quality, and reliability. He’s always finding ways to improve my cut while executing his best work. He’s got skill unlike any. If you’re not getting cut by him then idk what you’re doing.
Best haircut I had in long time! Erick did it amazing job, never had someone explain to me and consult the best way to style my hair, even wash my hair I've never done that! Erick one to go barber
I’ve been bringing my son to get a haircut with Erick for about a year now, he’s very professional. He always gets my son right I can tell him what haircut style I want for my baby and he gets it right every time💪🏼
