Krista at Tactical Grooming has cut my hair every two weeks for over two years now and every time it’s the highlight of my week. She always does an excellent job and takes great pride in her work. As a fellow Veteran Business owner, I am glad to support local small business and refer this shop to my friends. I highly recommend Tactical Grooming!
Krista is the best barber. Period. She does a fantastic job making me look my best even when I wasn't sure what cut I wanted. Her consistency and attention to detail is top tier. 1000% recommend.
Love getting my hair cut here at Tactical Grooming. Great place and love the environment.
Great customer service. Best beard trim and straight razor shave in the county.
Awesome experience! The barbershop had a cool, welcoming vibe and the staff was friendly and professional. Krista gave me one of the best cuts I’ve ever had—sharp, clean, and exactly what I wanted. And Randy gave me a shave smoother than a baby's butt 😁 Great atmosphere, great service. I’ll definitely be back!
Fantastic haircut! Krista went above and beyond to improve the haircut I’ve been getting for the last 20 years. Very easy to talk to so no awkward silence which I value. I’m not saying walk ins aren’t possible but you really need an appt (which you can do online, another win!)
Julia was very friendly and very attentive to what I was asking for. She was fast and so so nice. She did a fantastic job and my hair and especially my beard. Very clean shop and Krista was very nice as well. Super experience.
I have issues with the normal hair cutter scene. Julia and her Co workers have always made me feel comfortable and they have always given me an awesome shearing. I absolutely enjoy making my next appointment and bang its imported straight into my calendar with 3 button taps. Will continue my shearings every 3 weeks. - SeaDragon
This was my first time here. Julia did a great job!! I’m definitely coming back!
Best barbershop around! Krista took me from looking wild to looking good!
Excellent results, will definitely be back!
Awesome skills and great personality. App let me pick my own appointment time and she got me in earlier. Really pays attention to detail. OCD like me! She gets it.
Excellent service and quality. Krista listens to what you want and works wonders with difficult and unruly hair. Relaxing atmosphere with a mild military style.
Krista always does a great job with everything. I had never had a hot towel shave before a few months ago when made my first visit here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Along with a beard trim and haircut it's always a good experience.
The best haircut I have ever received, with even better customer service. Highly recommend going to this place.
Melody is awesome! Always does a great job cutting my hair. Highly recommend Tactical Grooming. I got a hair cut and a shave. Melody did a great job saving me from having an embarrassing chin strap… just not something I need in my life. Thanks again for doing a great job!
This was my first time visiting this barber, and I definitely will be going back more as my time there was excellent.
It's so hard to find a legitimate barber in this town! Krista is fantastic. From booking to haircut it's a seamless process, she is highly skilled and very personable. Don't waste your time with the other clowns around Huntsville and their horrible customer service, your barber is right here.
I have three boys who range in age from 18 to 6, who all have different hair textures, and preferences on how they want their hair done. Krista does a fantastic job listening to their vision and giving them exactly what they want. I love the option to book appts online- even better, I can book all three of my boys…
Great first time experience, Krista was prompt and professional and I would highly recommend to others in the future.
