Customer Review Summary
Regulars keep returning for the beard trim and shape, several calling it the best they've had, and for standard cuts like the Cut, Wash and Dry service, often paired with a complimentary Turkish tea while waiting. Long-time customers mention the extra grooming touches, eyebrow trims, ear and nasal hair cleanup, that come with a routine cut, and describe the atmosphere as friendly with no appointment needed. Pricing draws praise too, with cuts noted around fourteen to fifteen pounds. A recurring complaint centers on skin fades: one customer asked repeatedly for a V cut with shaved sides but says staff defaulted to a skin fade regardless, also noting staff conversing in Turkish while cutting as unprofessional. Another reviewer reports asking for a small trim and instead having the majority of their hair shaved off. Despite these misses, most describe walking in promptly, getting asked their preferred style, and leaving satisfied with the attention to detail.

“Gave the complete opposite of what I asked for- asked for a little trim and shavedd off the majority of my hair and didn’t touch the top. Absolutely awful. The man in the white polo shirt”

“I was hiking through Alton and popped into Omar’s Barber shop. He was amazing, listened, checked as he cut length and was personable as well. When I paid I was impressed with the cost as well.”
