Well. You get what you pay for here. $ 8 for a 5 fun crappy haircut. The owner Sam is nice but he was eating beef jerky when I came in and never stopped chewing and talking in my face. Was pretty disgusting. I asked for a high fade and he just runs the clippers almost all the way to the too of my head with a number 1 then combs all my hair into a fohawk and cuts down the middle. He couldn’t even get my sideburns the same length. One was a full half inch longer than the other and I had to ask him to fix it. I’m actually on my way to find another place to see if they can fix this hack job.

The price($ 8) was good, that’s about it! It’d gladly pay twice as much for a decent haircut. I’ve had $ 5 haircuts better than my 1st(and only) experience here, so the low rate is no excuse for the hack job he did called a haircut. I currently have buzzed hair(short all around), so there are very few ways one can mess up. However, this guy(Samir) managed to. First of all, when I called before I came in, his first question was«who gave you my number?» in a sort of rude tone. Umm there’s this thing called the Internet? Unfortunately the favorable Unilocal reviews let me down this time. Then once I got there, before I even sat down, he’s like«where are you from?», definitely not in a friendly way either. Almost like he was expecting a certain answer and I didn’t match his expectations. Seemed like he was rushed the whole time. Barely spend like 6 min or so. He also didn’t put anything(tissue/towel) around my neck to keep the hair from going down my shirt. So my entire lunch and car trip home, my whole chest, back, etc were itching from all the hair all over my body. He supposedly has 25+ years experience at that location, but he was doing things a rookie wouldn’t do! I hate to say it, and kinda ironic, but I think he might be racist!

Sam always does a very thorough job on cutting my hair! I have extremely curly hair, and he really knows what he’s doing.

Yeah, the hair cut is only $ 7.99. Cool! This guy is pretty nice over all. No complaints there. The only reason I’m rating this gentleman poorly is because every time I have gone here, approximately 5 times, he always leaves my hair all CHOPPY looking. I don’t know if what caused it is the cheap old scissors he has been using since the 70’s or something, or maybe is just his type of skills. I kept going here because of the cheap price, but after a couple of tries he just leaving my hair all uneven and choppy looking. One time I decided to tell him what I thought about my hair cut and I asked him if he can kind of fix it a little bit better, and this man got offended right away. Not cool! I have gone to MANY places to get my hair cut, and not that many people have the skills and the right tools to make it happen. Cutting hair sounds easy, but it is not. Thank god I have found another place where a lady DOES know how to cut my hair and she doesn’t use those ugly looking double sided scissors that leave my hair choppy looking. I pay double, but it is definitely worth it.

this guy was«fast» and thats about it. for $ 8 u get a rushed job with little or no attention to detail. you’ll have to ask for a mirror to check his work and when u point out flaws he looks insulted. has the personality of a plate. if u want a hack job, this is your place. you’ll have better luck with students training at a beauty school.

excellent hair cut, 8 bucks, come on man… can’t beat that! Def my new spot for getting my hurrr did. and as Chris N. says, he is really fast and i’m pretty pumped about my haircut. I’m usually pretty picky with my haircuts and this haircut was for a wedding i’m in, so had to perfect for all the pics. Don’t even think twice, go to Samir’s!

I love this place! Samir is super nice and he gives excellent haircuts. People always love my hair and ask me where I got it done. I almost don’t want to give such a great review because I feel like I’m giving away my little best kept secret. But I decided to share the happiness and talent. He has been cutting hair since he was 12 years old, you don’t find skill and knowledge like that these days. His prices are amazing and I love the location. I just love love love this place. I won’t let anyone else touch my hair!

Great haircut. Quick, no nonsense, and to the point. I drove by this place many times without knowing it was there. Walked in on a whim one day and kept going back. Samir is pretty damn good with the scissors and will keep you entertained. Never had a bad cut with him!
