“I’ve been stopping at Tad’s for a few years now. This establishment is great! Pat in specific is a great barber! I def recommend!”

“We took our son in for a haircut before school starts and showed the stylist photos of his previous haircut so she could see what we wanted. We specifically stated that he did not want it cut short. My son has curly hair that was past his nose, we asked for the front to be cut just below his eyes so that when it curled it would sit around eye level. We also asked for a low taper in the back. Unfortunately, that is not what he received. Instead, she gave him a high taper and cut the front approximately 2 inches shorter than we requested, leaving it about half an inch above his eyebrows. All of his hair is about 2 inches shorter than we asked for. Once his hair dries and curls, it will sit well above the middle of his forehead which is way shorter than what we asked for. The haircut is also uneven and choppy in several places. She cut all of the curl out. We expressed that his hair was cut much shorter than what we asked for and instead of listening to our concerns, she became argumentative and insisted it wasn't that short. My son got in the car and cried because he hated the haircut. He's about to start high school in 2 weeks and is now embarrassed and dreading going back because he doesn't like how it looks. We will not be returning here again. Our experience was extremely disappointing, not only because the stylist failed to follow our clear instructions and the reference photos, but also because of how our concerns were handled afterward. Also sadly this is not our first negative experience, we brought our other son in about 2 weeks ago and left unhappy. The included picture is what we showed her and stated we wanted it to be a little longer than (top) versus what we got (bottom)”

“I am usually not someone that leaves a 1 star review, but I was extremely disappointed with this place. I explicitly told the person cutting my hair to please leave room on the top and not do it too short, I was very adamant about that. …”

“The Juan and only! This guy can cut hair better than most barbers i have met! Top notch guy! He works the front chair in the shop and is with the wait. I’ve had hair cuts from most of the barbers in the shop and always happy. But Jaun is a …”

Customer Review Summary
Praise centers on specific barbers and on long-term loyalty. Reviewers credit the front-chair barber, another named for solid cuts, and one who is patient with kids, and some say they have come for years. One parent whose son got a bad cut from a newer barber says the shop responded right away, fixed the haircut, and gave a gift certificate for two future haircuts.
