What THE PEOPLE Say

I'm extremely particular about my hair. It's always been very difficult for me to stick with a barber. So rare that someone is not only able to consistently execute on what I want but to make suggestions that actually work for me. Mason sincerely cares about every cut that walks out of his shop and it shows. Loyal customer for 3+ years

CARY HAYS

Mason was amazing with my little one! My toddler usually hates haircuts, but Mason’s patience and friendly demeanor made all the difference. He kept my son entertained and comfortable, and the haircut turned out absolutely adorable. I love that he treats every customer, no matter their age, with such care and attention. We'll definitely be back!

Melissa Wilcox

I’ve been to many barbers over the years, but Mason truly stands out. His skill with a razor is unmatched, and he takes the time to ensure every detail is perfect. Beyond the haircut, it’s the atmosphere that keeps me coming back—Mason makes everyone feel like family. It’s more than just a haircut; it’s an experience.

Wait times are typically less than 30 minutes for haircuts. Shaves and razor cuts may have longer waits due to time required. Call or book online to guarantee your spot!

We kindly ask customers who have booked appointments online or by phone to notify us of cancellations no later than 24 hours prior to the scheduled time.
