Al's Corner Barbershop

Everytime I go there get a fantastic cut

I tried. I was excited when I moved here to be so close to a place and the first hair cut was fine, Dominican guy with the beard. Did his job, welcomed me to the area and gave me a decent hair cut. Next cut was better, corner chair guy, and I've had some hit or miss hair cuts there but for $15 or whatever dollars that's my fault. But the last time, nope, Columbian guy who didn't speak English. He cut my hair essentially the way you would mug someone in prison. Whether it was the fact that someone had to translate what I wanted, or the fact he looked at a picture that I used as a reference and he disagreed he continued to ruin my hair cut that day and for the months to come. When I say horrible I mean, not like just bad, but the dude put his hand over my face as he used buzz clippers. Which I said don't use those, it cuts to short, he explained to someone else that explained to me that he doesn't cut that short with them. Right away with a hand holding my face the way you'd torture your little brother he just went with English ignorance and buzzed right up the side. With it that short, I was screwed I had to let the rest go that short. So he kept his hand on my face and slowly breathed Spanish rap in my ear that he was listening to through his headphones that I eventually had to say my friend, you need to get your hand off my face, your palming my face the way you rape someone in prison and you need to stop whispering, I'm banging you tonight in my ear in Spanish. Your jot a child, there is no reason to try and act cool anymore, take the headphones off and cut my hair. At which point he screwed up with the sissors and cut to short. So then my hair stuck straight up. He decided to fix this by trimming it more and more. So now one half of my head is a spike and the other half is long. It got to the point with him trying to smooth it down and then fix it that I just stood up. Gave him $20 and said we're done here. Why did I tip him $5. Because hopefully they fired him and he never cuts another person's hair again and that can go towards printing resumes and finding new work.
After that, I was okay with some of the good and the so so hair cuts. I was alright with it. But after that, no, I'll never go. If you want a fade of a buzz cut I'm sure this place is great. But if you have regular hair, just normal straight run of the mill white boy hair. Don't ever step foot in this place unless you want to laugh and have a Barber shop experience. But if the Columbian guy that doesn't speak English says he's ready. Say no. I'm telling you now, say no. Go with the Dominican guy with the beard, go with the guy with the corner window chair next to the Chinese place or go with the guy near the employee area that calls you sir. Because anything else, you'll end up having to grow your hair out for 2-3 months to fix the prison rape job the Columbian guy did to you.

I just got the worst haircut of my life. I told the guy "a regular haircut, no radical tapers". He cut it so short that it stands straight up. I have a conservative job at a bank. This clown has made me look like a nutcase. NEVER AGAIN.

These guys are great, wait time is not that much and if you need to wait its worth it and there are TV's to watch if you have to wait. Plus thing is that they are open till 9:00.

Great service. Legitimately worth a lot more than you pay for. Lots of barbers to take care of you even if there is a wait it will be quick. I waited at most 9 minutes.
I'd come back again next time I'm in the area
