I’ve been going here for the last year or so and every time my hair comes out exactly how I envisioned it. Jules is absolutely wonderful and a whiz with a razor!! The staff is wicked friendly, the salon is a good vibe, clean, and a great escape!

Beautiful, eclectic, and fun interior. Frank did an awesome job. The conversation was wonderful. The products he carries are a cool spin on traditional, old school barber products with a modern function. It was a really great experience.

Frank gave me a haircut yesterday and made me feel so beautiful! He’s so friendly and professional and great to chat with. I love conversations with him! It’s a very cool place esthetically and the vibe is fabulous. I had seen him in the past and he’s aware I am dealing with some issues of hair regrowth after cancer treatment. He cuts my hair so amazingly well that he blends the areas of regrowth into the rest of my hair. It’s barely noticeable! He’s so good at what he does! I will return again and again
