One of the best haircuts I have gotten and only for $12! I originally was planning to go to another barbershop that I had remembered meeting the owner a few years back. Well, I walked in there and apparently it has changed ownership and let's just say the new staff is a bunch of young punks that are too good to even say hi or welcome when someone walks in the door. Not the type of experience I was looking for in a barbershop. I left that place and did a quick Yelp search and up popped Nelson's Barber Shop. It only had 3 reviews but they were all good so I figured what the heck, I'll give it a shot!
Nelson's is a surprisingly big shop as it has a good 12 or so chairs all in a row and the opposite side is lined with seating for those waiting. I walked in and was greeted immediately by a gentleman who asked if I needed a haircut (kind of a funny question don't you think?? why else would I be walking into a barbershop?). Anyway, he led me down to another gentleman at the end who introduced himself as Bong.
Bong is a very talented and friendly barber and did a great job with my simple or RTW (ready to wear-as he said) haircut. No lines in my fade and even took the time to do some extra careful trimming with a blade which was very surprising considering the price.
As long as Bong is still at this place in a few weeks I'll be back. While this place does not have the traditional small barbershop feel, it offers great cuts at insanely great prices.
CASH ONLY BTW.
