"Amazing experience here for my son’s first haircut! Nate was exceptional - took his time and worked around a wiggling toddler. Super skilled and knows what he’s doing. The shop itself is also classy and full of small details that make for a really nice experience. Highly recommend!"

"The shop is beautiful. Absolutely stunning, and a great experience. I also had the best haircut of my life with Kyle. It was the first time the cut looked exactly like what I had pictured in my head. Fantastic experience."

"I’ve been getting my hair cut here for 5+ years now and have never had a bad experience regardless of who cut my hair. I typically see Jake or Miki, and wouldn’t go anywhere else on the Seacoast. I got cut here before my wedding that’s how highly I think of their work."
