Haircuts typically take around 10 minutes, suiting anyone looking to fit a trim into a short break. The barber cuts with scissors on request, and a razor blade is used for the hairline and neckline. Beard trims are offered alongside haircuts. Payment is cash only, so customers should come prepared.

Customer Review Summary
Speed and affordability dominate the praise for this barbershop, with reviewers repeatedly describing haircuts finished in ten minutes or less without sacrificing quality. Many single out the razor blade neck trim and scissor cuts done exactly as requested, and several mention returning for years or bringing family members along. The low, cash-only pricing comes up often as a draw, alongside walk-in convenience and friendly, understanding service, including one account of being trusted to pay the next day after forgetting a wallet. However, a significant minority report serious problems: one reviewer describes a razor burn on the neck, another says an eyebrow was accidentally shaved off and the barber denied responsibility, and a third describes bruising from an aggressive dry razor along the hairline. Others complain of rushed, careless cutting that left hair uneven or ignored their requested style entirely. The pattern splits between loyal regulars praising quick, skilled cuts at low prices and a smaller group describing rushed, painful, or unhygienic experiences.

“Don't think lightening speed and an amazing price mean a bad haircut - it's exactly the opposite. The guy is a total natural. Been getting my hair cut here for over 10 years and despite changing haircuts from long to short and back again multiple times I could never be happier with what he does. Go there!”
