    I’ve been coming here for a few months and it’s become my go-to spot. The haircuts are consistently good, the prices are very reasonable, and the efficiency is honestly unmatched. I’m usually in and out in about 15 minutes without the cut feeling rushed. Hard to beat that combination.

    I had some time in between appointments and I happened to be in Evanston. This was the best haircut I’ve had in years, Jay clearly knows what he is doing. The haircut took 14 minutes. This is the quickest haircut I’ve ever had and extremely impressive for a skin fade on the sides with longer on top. I will come out of my way to get my haircut here regularly.

    Requested style: Skin fade, longer on top.

    First time I went here I feared for how my haircut would turn out. Very few words spoken, I show my picture, I get my haircut. It’s $22, it takes 10 minutes, it looks great. I’ve been back 3 times.I usually call ahead or drop in to book a time later in the day (you should also let him know at that point if you need a beard trim/cleanup or you’ll be outta luck mentioning it when you get in the chair) but supposedly walk ins can be ok if he’s not super busy.Genuinely one of the top three haircuts of my life.
