      Some of these reviews are ruthless. No, they don't only know how to do buzz cuts. Both my parents were beauticians-I grew up in a beauty shop. Greg and Cornell do a great job every time. Although, the red-headed woman on the end does a marvelous job tapering my hair. I love her cuts.

      Just moved in town and was looking for a good barbershop. This is definitely the place to go. Gave me a great haircut and at a fair price. It took me three weeks to find the right barbershop and I did find it. Thank you Greg.

      While the haircuts here are good, the barbershop is not following COVID mask guidelines for staff or customers. My husband was getting his hair cut here this past week, and the mask wearing was totally sub-par. First, his barber was letting his mask slip from his nose. Then the owner came in and was not wearing a mask. Finally, another customer came in, loudly proclaimed he was unvaccinated, and didn't wear a mask. Don't go here if you are interested in a COVID-safe haircut.

      This could be a good place for kids, who don't really make their own decisions about their haircuts and for married men with a prominent belly who just want a haircut and don't really care about being as attractive as they can possibly be. But even so, why would someone pay $20 when he can get the same quality haircut for much less money? Yes, this is how much he charges which he does not deserve in my opinion based on his skills and demeanor. He give you a neat and symmetrical haircut as long as you let him do it his way and not request anything beyond his own idea of what a haircut should look like. And this is why I am giving him two stars.

      When I visited him I did not ask for anything crazy, I just asked for a classical gentlemen's haircut that you will see on many attractive famous men like Brad Pit. Flat on top, short on the sides. When he finished he gave me a mirror so I can see the back of my head. What I saw was that the back of my head had two colors because half of it had long hairs and and the other half was white because the skin was visible. It didn't look manly at all. this style would have been appropriate for a mama's boy who is a virgin until his marriage.I told him that I want him to make the upper part as short as the lower part and he tried to justify why this is not possible in this universe. For some odd reason it is possible at other barber shops that charge less than he does. I was stunned when he asked me to pay him $20 dollars.

      Besides the lack of skills, his demeanor was not good at all. He was profoundly annoyed by the fact that I asked him to correct the haircut and he was smiling fakely in an attempt to hide that he was upset. I don't like people who are ingenuinely polite.

      I have bitterly regretted that I visited his shop.

      $22 without tip and no lather for neck shave - only water. Not a bad haircut, but this should be $15 tops for what you get.

      The red-headed woman who works at Greg's only knows how to do one hair cut -- BUZZ CUT. If you come in for a trim for a nice haircut, don't go to her!!! Terrible job.

      The best haircutters around. Everyone does a great job. FIVE members of our family goes there, mom, dad, boys, even my 80 year old mother. Every hair cutter says hello when you come in and when you leave. They are consistently accurate and also tailor cuts to your needs and desires and even the season. Greg and Kornel are the NICEST guys imaginable: holds the door for people, patient with adults, children, young and old. Treats people like people, one at a time, never rushed. Also strategically located across the library and next to the infamous Dairy Bar for a quick ice cream cone, or root beer float after a cut... Or Joe's Donut just 2 doors down. This is what a classic barber shop should be. And they are very reasonably priced for what they do. I left the expensive salons to come here because they are THAT good.

      Cuts to short and they don't listen to what you want. The women kept cutting after I told her I wanted it long and she buzzed my hair. One of the worst hair cuts I've ever had.

      This is the only place I have ever taken my son to that gives a consistently good haircut! It's totally worth the wait and slightly higher price than the chains. I was so surprised to read any negative reviews! I just got on yelp to see when they open and the negatives inspired me to write my first ever yelp review. Every employee at the barbershop has given my son a haircut at some point and they have all been excellent. I also appreciate that it's an independently owned business and that it has the feel of a true barbershop. You should definitely try out and support this business!
