I’ve been going to Jhyro for a couple months now and every cut has been the best. He always takes his time and makes sure everything comes out clean exactly how I want it. The vibe is always good and he makes the whole experience comfortable and easy. I definitely recommend getting a haircut from him if you want someone consistent and skilled.

My experience with Ellie has always been 5/5 stars. She’s not only great at what she does but is always super friendly and accommodating during each visit. She gives great fades and layers always creating a consistent and effortless cut. I couldn’t be happier with Ellie as my stylist.

I would definitely recommend Nico to people who are looking for a barber or apprehensive…

Ellie does such a great job cutting my son’s hair. We’ve been to several barbers and made the switch to Ellie several months ago and keep coming back. She really listens to what we want and makes sure he’s happy with the cut every time. I highly recommend her!

Nico is great! He’s not just a barber that knows how to only use clippers but he actually knows how to cut and style hair. It’s been difficult to actually find a good men’s stylist in this area and I’m grateful to have found him. He’s very skilled, personable and truly cares about his clients.
